Business-critical service from the Comitas Cloud

Olympic Bobsleigh Run In St. Moritz, specially developed software has long been used to manage almost all business processes. Its use has been particularly important in organizing international bobsleigh races. It enabled the automatic creation of start lists and rankings, as well as the assignment of photos and videos for each individual run.

Improved security through new software

Although the existing software performed all functions flawlessly, a complete redesign was necessary. This was because a single individual was responsible for its development. This not only created a high degree of dependency, but the technology used was also outdated and only a few programmers were familiar with it. To avoid the resulting security risks, Olympia Bob Run decided to develop a new system.

The design of the new application

The software that Comitas developed for Olympia Bob Run is based on a Microsoft UWP architecture. This means it uses modern technology that meets all security and reliability requirements. The functionality of the previous program, however, remained almost entirely unchanged. The developers simply removed a few features that the client no longer needed. A COM interface allows interaction with the timing system and the video screen at the event venue. The web portal is also integrated, providing access to video recordings of the runs. Comitas AG employees not only developed the new program but also manage the running. The application runs in their own data center, so the client doesn't need any additional hardware.

Secure and reliable programs for organizing major events

Olympia Bob Run organizes bobsleigh races in which top athletes from around the world participate. Since it is impossible to repeat a run, a loss of data has serious consequences. Therefore, stability and reliability play a crucial role in the software design. Comitas developed an exceptionally robust program whose susceptibility to data loss or other errors is extremely low. Furthermore, running the program in their own data center contributes to its high reliability.
