In the server cabinet
For house and office: a device that holds the records and answers the questions. Stands at your site, belongs to you, is switched off by you.
Product
Pull the plug. Your assistance keeps running.
The core of Eigenkern is not an access point but a device — in the server cabinet or directly at the plant. It has no address on the open network and needs no outside connection to work.
No address on the network
Keeps running without a line
Belongs to you
What it is about
Two quantities, one principle.
At the plant
For technology outdoors: a small device directly at the meter, controller or scale. It measures and reports even when the line to the office fails.
The vault principle
Data and assistants sit together in the same room. Tasks go in through a speaking tube, results come out. ⭐ Knowledge from outside is fetched — only inwards.
How it works
From the box to live operation.
01
Determining the size
By records and number of simultaneous users. ⛔ Not by catalogue: a device that is too large costs money, one that is too small is an irritation every day.
02
Installation and connection
Server cabinet or control cabinet. Power, network in the building — nothing more is needed.
03
Importing existing records
Your documents go onto the device, not into a cloud. The route there stays in-house.
04
Handover with key
Access rights, description, maintenance notes. There is exactly one key — yours.
What is there afterwards
What is in your premises afterwards.
- A device that belongs to you and that you can switch off.
- No address on the open network through which anyone could get in.
- Operation without an internet connection — the line is only needed for knowledge from outside.
- Known operating costs: electricity and occasional maintenance instead of an ongoing usage fee.
- A description that another service provider can also work with.
And what it does not
This is here because everything else would be worthless without it.
Anyone who promises everything is switched off at the first objection. That is why we say beforehand where the limit lies.
It is not a data centre
A device on the premises has limits. Where very many people run very large tasks at the same time, it is the wrong tool — we will say so rather than sell two devices.
It does not maintain itself
Backups, updates, an occasional look at it. Who takes this on should be settled beforehand: you, your IT or us.
It does not make the cloud bad
⛔ We do not claim that cloud tools are impermissible or unsafe. For many tasks they are the right choice. Our route is a different one — not one without alternatives.
Frequently asked questions
The questions that come first.
What happens in case of a defect?
The records are securely backed up and the device is replaceable. ⭐ That is why backup is part of the setup and not one of those items you tackle later.
Do we need a server room?
A cabinet is enough, cool and low in dust. For devices at the plant, the control cabinet that already houses equipment is sufficient.
What does operation cost?
Electricity and occasional maintenance. ⛔ We only give a figure once the size is determined — before that it would be a guess.
Can we upgrade the device later?
Yes, within limits. More important is choosing the right size at the start — which is why sizing comes before the quotation.
What if we want to change provider?
The device belongs to you, the documents are stored on it, and you hold the description. Switching must be possible, otherwise it would not be a core of your own.
