Black Tusk Enterprise
We meet your requirements
Black Tusk Enterprise provides a customizable and open development platform that empowers customers to manage their data while meeting requirements regarding flexibility and scalability of backend services.
What we offer
Black Tusk Enterprise is a product which is tailored to modern, secure and adaptable data management in the cloud.
Black Tusk Enterprise is hosted either as public or private cloud. For each plan we can provide sufficient security measures, such as state of the art SSL/TSL-encryption for communication security to our services and encryption of all data at rest.
Depending on the customer's requirement Black Tusk offers a variety of service levels: from infrastructure as a service (IaaS) to platform as a service (PaaS) to software as a service (SaaS).
Since many years Black Tusk Services prove their concept in the sports and health domain. Expanding their target group, Black Tusk Enterprise now represents a novel and smart alternative to common data outcourcing. Back Tusk Enterprise and its IT-infrastructure can reduce risk and costs while increasing availabilty and access to data for any application.
Software architecture
structured and precise
Schema-editor, storage and ID server form the basic architecture of Black Tusk Enterprise.
A proprietary schema-editor ...
is able to generate any XML- or JSON data structure which is then placed in the strorage. This file architecture is not solely intended to store data, it further defines a workflow for data analyses. Data structure is developed with the customer in advance, but requirements can be easily added and implemented afterwards.
Core component is a repository service which organizes data of the users by sorting and storing it in several databases depending on the type of data.
StorageAPI manages the access to the storage units and authorizes access to and deposition of data into the repository. Mobile applications or external systems and sources utilize the interface to download and upload data.
The ID system, which is built around the ID server, represents a vital part of the security measures of Black Tusk Enterprise. It serves as a hub for every authorization that is issued. In addition to authorizing a server or a user towards the storage, the ID server also checks whether a permission is still valid and entitled for certain actions.
Authorization
Authorization of components is accomplished by requesting a token from the ID server. After receiving a token the component is authorized. Once it tries to establish a connection through storageAPI, the presented claim of the component is being checked by the ID server. This mechanism prevents illegal data access. After verification data can be stored in the databases according to predefined schemas.
Data security
By default, data at rest is encrypted at any given moment in the storage. Furthermore, personal and sensitive data is individually encrypted for each user. For measures of usability and availibility, certain nonsensitive data is not individually encrypted, but a state of the art general encryption is applied and an unidentifiable ID is assigned to it. Communication between components and our services is encrypted with SSL.
Scenarios
adaptable and customizable
Information Technology
Black Tusk Enterprise enables you to easily collaborate and communicate between each other. It is an ideal solution for joint venture operations or projects across multiple companies. The development platform ensures data acquisition without any gap due to individually defined data structure and architecture. XML- and JSON data schemas can be tailored to scope and size of the project. Black Tusk Enterprise serves as an appropriate and secure platform for development and implementation of your ideas and solutions.
Research
You can utilise Black Tusk Enterprise as a data warehouse for location-independent and valid data acquisition. The software increases range, optimizes flow of data between involved parties and reduces cost at the same time. Customized data structure is a precondition for successful data management of consistant quality. The unique and refined metadata architecture of Black Tusk Enterprise replaces costly data scrubbing and evalutation. Due to intelligent mapping between several bitstreams Black Tusk Enterprise can ensure usable results.
Sports and health:
The first cloud solution of Black Tusk was established early, in the field of sport training management for professional, competetive and recreational sports. The software empowers trainers and athletes to handle their personal fitness by capturing data through a variety of sensors, monitoring relevant training parameters and analyzing their training and health data including stress analysis. A complex communication system provides continous monitoring and feedback of athletes in real-time.
Testimonial
Due to its dedication to competetive sports Black Tusk formed a close partnership with the mounatinbike team ToMotion racing as a main sponsor. Since over six years ToMotion utilizes Black Tusk ProSports for a successful management of their athletes.
Founder, sports physician and trainer of ToMotion Racing, Andrea Potratz about the use of BlackTusk ProSports.
In which areas do you apply Black Tusk ProSports?
The main purpose of Black Tusk ProSports as a trainer is to schedule and control trainings of the athletes. Furthermore I utilize the software for recording performance tests, for exporting tracks out of training units or tours and for the recording, evaluation and comparison of heart rate variability data. We used to do live tracking with ProSports, as well.
What is the main advantage of ProSports compared to other software solutions?
Data is not exclusively stored in the cloud but also available locally on a device. Hence, I can use ProSports offline, as a trainer or as an athlete. It can run independently from internet availibillity which can be vital abroad. Most of the software solutions on the market only support certain devices. In contrast to that, Black Tusk Pro Sports is compatible with almost any device. I can customize views and evaluations individially and therefore provide an utmost detailed and explicit support for my athletes. As a trainer it is important that I can supervise them easily and have a good overview over a large number of athletes at the same time. Another important feature is that I can create templates for trainings which makes planning much simpler.
What is the main benefit of Black Tusk Pro Sports?
Black Tusk Pro Sports helps the athletes to increase their performance and therefore score better in competition. The more I can see what the athlete does, the better I can adjust and optimize trainings which highly influences the outcome. It has an impact on athletes' motivation and as a result performance rises. It is important to see all recorded trainings over a passage of time and not just basic information and mean values.
