Diese Organisation, eine der weltweit gr\u00f6\u00dften und effektivsten gemeinn\u00fctzigen Naturschutzorganisationen, sch\u00f6pft ihre St\u00e4rke aus einer globalen Mitgliedschaft, die ihre Werte teilt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gro\u00df angelegte Fundraising-, Einzelhandels- und Advocacy-Kampagnen geh\u00f6ren zu den effektivsten Methoden, mit denen diese Organisation Spenden generiert und Millionen von Unterst\u00fctzern erreicht. Seit \u00fcber 30 Jahren bildet Adabas &amp; Natural das R\u00fcckgrat ihrer Fundraising-F\u00e4higkeiten, indem es zuverl\u00e4ssige Leistungen liefert, die perfekt auf die hohen Transaktionsvolumina dieser globalen Initiativen abgestimmt sind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Als die Organisation plante, alle ihre Anwendungen von einem internen Server auf Microsoft Azure zu konsolidieren, musste sichergestellt werden, dass ihre zentralen Fundraising-Anwendungen auf Adabas &amp; Natural auch in der Cloud laufen k\u00f6nnen. Dies w\u00fcrde es erm\u00f6glichen, die wichtigen Fundraising-Aktivit\u00e4ten ohne Unterbrechung fortzuf\u00fchren, gleichzeitig die IT-Infrastruktur zu vereinfachen und die Integration zuk\u00fcnftiger Technologien zu erm\u00f6glichen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-fast-lift-and-shift-to-the-cloud\">Ein schneller Lift-and-Shift in die Cloud<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dank der Virtualisierung und der Portabilit\u00e4t von Adabas &amp; Natural haben Organisationen die Freiheit, jeden Cloud-Anbieter oder jede Cloud-Architektur zu w\u00e4hlen, die sie m\u00f6chten. Diese gemeinn\u00fctzige Organisation entschied sich f\u00fcr den schnellsten Weg in die Cloud: ein Lift-and-Shift ihrer Adabas &amp; Natural Fundraising-Anwendungen. Ohne die Architektur zu ver\u00e4ndern, wechselte die Organisation von Linux zu einer virtuellen Maschine, die auf der Microsoft Azure Hyperscale-Cloudinfrastruktur l\u00e4uft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Der Lift-and-Shift-Prozess verlief schnell und reibungslos: Die Organisation konnte die Produktionsumgebung in weniger als zwei Monaten in Betrieb nehmen. Im Rahmen dieses Prozesses wurden alle bestehenden Programme kopiert, die Datenbanken gesichert und die Azure-Umgebung eingerichtet. Ein Gro\u00dfteil der Startzeit entfiel auf das Testen verschiedener Konfigurationsoptionen in Azure, um den gr\u00f6\u00dftm\u00f6glichen Nutzen aus den virtualisierten Systemen von Microsoft zu ziehen. Mit Microsoft als Cloud-Service-Provider kann sich das IT-Team der gemeinn\u00fctzigen Organisation darauf konzentrieren, neue M\u00f6glichkeiten der Zusammenarbeit mit Freiwilligen und Spendern zu schaffen, statt die interne Hardware zu verwalten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-easy-access-around-the-world\">Einfacher Zugang von \u00fcberall aus der Welt<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Die gemeinn\u00fctzige Organisation hat mehr als 4.300 Nutzer, die auf Anwendungen f\u00fcr Fundraising und Spenderbindung zugreifen. Diese Mitarbeitenden und Freiwilligen tragen weltweit bei, weshalb die Organisation ihre Anwendungen bereits modernisiert hat, um einfachen Zugriff \u00fcber Web oder Mobile-App zu erm\u00f6glichen.\n\nDer Umzug auf Azure erm\u00f6glicht es, diese Benutzeroberfl\u00e4che beizubehalten, w\u00e4hrend VPN-Gateways sichere und verschl\u00fcsselte Verbindungen gew\u00e4hrleisten. Die verteilte Natur der Cloud erlaubt es, die Dienste dynamisch hoch- oder herunterzufahren, um die Nachfrage jederzeit und \u00fcberall zu decken \u2013 etwa w\u00e4hrend Events, Auktionen oder anderen Zeitr\u00e4umen mit erh\u00f6htem Nutzungsaufkommen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-devops-friendly\">DevOps-freundlich<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Die Organisation setzt seit langem auf DevOps, um neue Funktionen schnell zu entwickeln und bereitzustellen. Mithilfe von NaturalONE, einer auf Eclipse basierenden Entwicklungsumgebung, kann das Programmierteam Natural in DevOps-Toolchains und -Prozesse integrieren, um die Anwendungsbereitstellung und -qualit\u00e4t zu verbessern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ein Lift-and-Shift in die Cloud bel\u00e4sst die effektiven DevOps-Praktiken der gemeinn\u00fctzigen Organisation unver\u00e4ndert, einschlie\u00dflich der Nutzung von Eclipse-Plug-ins (Subversion, Git, Wireframe Sketcher, SQL, Remote System Explorer, PHP, Web, Database Development), Versionskontrolle (Subversion, Git), Prozessabbildung (Kerika) sowie Atlassian Application Lifecycle Management Tools (Fisheye\/Crucible, Bamboo, Stash).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-architecture-optimized\">Architektur optimiert<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Die gemeinn\u00fctzige Organisation entschied sich f\u00fcr ein Lift-and-Shift zu einer Single-Instance-Architektur, die auf einer cloudbasierten virtuellen Maschine l\u00e4uft und der vorherigen On-Premises-Architektur entspricht. Nach Tests verschiedener Hardwarekonfigurationen w\u00e4hlte die Organisation eine Azure-Maschine mit 16 Prozessoren, 32 GB Speicher und Premium-SSD-Laufwerken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Der Umzug in die Cloud bot die M\u00f6glichkeit, die Umgebungen neu zu gestalten und die Architektur zu optimieren. Zuvor verf\u00fcgte jede Datenbank \u00fcber vier Logical Volume Manager (LVMs); die Organisation reduzierte diese Zahl um 75 % auf einen LVM pro Datenbank, was die effiziente Nutzung der Anwendungen durch die IT erleichtert. Au\u00dferdem wurde die Gesamtzahl der Produktionsfestplatten um 90 % reduziert, was das Management k\u00fcnftig erheblich vereinfacht.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reliability-for-the-future\">Zuverl\u00e4ssigkeit f\u00fcr die Zukunft<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Seit dem schnellen Lift-and-Shift in die Cloud ist die gemeinn\u00fctzige Organisation \u00e4u\u00dferst zufrieden mit Betriebszeit und Verf\u00fcgbarkeit. Im vergangenen Jahr gab es keine Ausfallzeiten, und Adabas &amp; Natural auf Azure hat sich als sehr zuverl\u00e4ssig erwiesen. Der Disaster-Recovery-Service von Azure repliziert das System der Organisation mit einem Hot-Standby, bereit, im Failover-Fall innerhalb weniger Minuten auf eine neue Maschine umzuschalten. Azure-Backups erstellen t\u00e4glich Snapshots aller Laufwerke mit einer Aufbewahrungsfrist von 30 Tagen, um Dateien oder ganze Laufwerke bei Bedarf wiederherzustellen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Software AG ist stolz darauf, die Organisation bei ihrem Umzug in die Cloud und einer flexibleren, reaktionsschnelleren IT-Umgebung zu unterst\u00fctzen. Die Organisation hat \u00fcber Jahrzehnte hinweg effektive Fundraising-Anwendungen auf Basis von Adabas &amp; Natural aufgebaut. Wie der Director of Information Systems zur Langlebigkeit der L\u00f6sungen sagt: \u201eWenn es nicht funktionieren w\u00fcrde, w\u00e4re es kein Legacy.\u201c Jetzt kann die Organisation auf diesem Erfolg aufbauen und sich mit einer Cloud-First-Strategie f\u00fcr mehr Agilit\u00e4t und Innovation positionieren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-secondary-button is-style-secondary-button--2\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"\/app\/uploads\/2025\/09\/css_north_american_nonprofit_en.pdf\" data-no-translation>Download PDF<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide sag-cards-row sag-cards-row-icons has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-top-color:var(--wp--preset--color--gray);border-top-width:2px;border-right-style:none;border-right-width:0px;border-bottom-style:none;border-bottom-width:0px;border-left-style:none;border-left-width:0px;margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--xl);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--l)\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading alignwide\" id=\"h-you-may-also-like\" style=\"margin-top:48px;margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\">Das k\u00f6nnte Sie auch interessieren:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-f7d19e04 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column has-gray-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/app\/uploads\/2025\/08\/lightbulb-icon.png\" alt=\"Gl\u00fchbirnen-Symbol\" class=\"wp-image-186\" style=\"width:42px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-stay-connected\">Bleiben Sie verbunden<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Treten Sie der Community bei und verfolgen Sie die neuesten Nachrichten zu Adabas &amp;
