PURA-Softwarecatalogus.nl has been improved. iDelft completely renewed the software platfom. Safe and reliable hosting is of paramount importance since the website contains information about software titles, applications and vendors for the Medical Services for the Municipalities (GGD).
iDelft took over parts of Triquanta last year including the GGD account. All Triquanta clients have been migrated to a new platform over the last year.
We renewed our Virtual Private Server (VPS) cluster including our monitoring procedures. The servers are part of the hosting and support solution for our iDelft customers. We primarily host webportals developed in-house with Drupal. In addition, we support some older VPS servers that we took over from Triquanta ealier this year. We are in contact with the customers because we want to fade out these servers in the near future.
The website WerkenBijPeutz.nl is now on-line. The site is specially targetted for mobile phones and tablets. The engineering firm Peutz is using WerkenBijPeutz.nl to inform applicants on the latest vacancies. The website is being made by iDelft in Drupal 8 without the need for any license fees.
iDelft applied today an important Drupal SA-CORE-2019-003 security patch at client websites. A vulnerability of Drupal in combination with RESTful webservices occured. Only a fraction of the websites is being affected, but we try to upgrade Drupal consistently. Drupal security is something you can rely upon.
The new Drupal 8 website of a Dutch security organisation (Veiligheidsregio Noord-Holland Noord) is live: www.vrnhn.nl.
Our client worked hard over the past few months to introduce new videos end imagery. This combined with our efforts to implement a new platform resulted in a brand new website with a clear design (by Kees-TM Internet)). Emphasis has been put on social media and quick performance through advanced caching mechanisms.
There was special attention for mobile applications and the introduction of forms to reduce the workload of VRNHN staff members. This new website is compliant with the new European privacy regulations and provides a stable on-line channel for the years to come.
The Court in Amsterdam declared Triquanta Web Solutions B.V. bankrupt on January 16th. iDelft has partly taken over the company which always had an excellent reputation in the market. This acquisition is meant to reinforce the position of iDelft as leading developer of complex websites based on Drupal.
Big companies often operate (many!) large websites. iDelft helped a major engineering firm in the Netherlands over the past months to migrate a range of websites to Drupal 8. The sites are multi-langual and context sensitivity plays an important role. In many cases, iDelft is responsible for the entire implementation project, but in this instance we acted as consultants and worked together with the building team of the customer. This advisory role was crucial for the success of the migration.
iDelft participated in the NITECT 2017 conference in Ottawa. The NATO Communication and Information (NCI) Agency awarded iDelft BV with the Defence Innovation Challenge prize. With 9 other international companies, iDelft demonstrated new technology at the 2017 NCI Agency Conference / AFCEA TechNet International (NITEC17), 'Sharpening NATO's Technological Edge: Adaptive Partnerships and the Innovative Power of Alliance Industry'. A total of 48 companies submitted proposals to NATO; 10 spearhead technologies had been formulated by NATO upfront.
iDelft created a software solution for procurement processes based on the Drupal platform. Combining this software with so-called Container technology (Docker) is offering maximum scalability and flexibility. With this solution, NATO can optimize their procurement processes on various platforms and geographic locations.
The other winning companies were from Norway, Germany, UK and the USA, focussing on Cyber Security, Secure Voice, Service Management Automation, Long Range Communication and Infrastructure.
NATO will spent more than 3 billion Euro's in the coming years on new projects and the NITEC 2017 conference paid attention to those upcoming projects that will need to incorporate new technologies.
iDelft completed a project for the Cadastre to migrate the www.pdok.nl portal to a new database platform. This involved a PostgreSQL database in combination with Docker containers.
iDelft is in 2016 silver partner of Drupal Nederland (a foundation to promote the effective use of Drupal in The Netherlands).
iDelft completed a study on Drupal software implementation quality for a major Dutch public organisation. The results will be used to improve the follow-on phases.
Drupal 8 is not completely error-free yet, but we are proud to launch our first commercial Drupal 8 website: Bestel3D.nl. With the new version of Drupal, accessible (responsive) websites can be made, suitable for smaller devices according to the latest web guidelines.
Not every project is currently suitable for Drupal 8. We can advice on which version of Drupal can be used best at this moment. We can also provide information on Standard Drupal Configurations, Performance en SEO optimalisation.
iDelft released the first concept of an architecture report to a large public organisation in The Netherlands. The report is focusing on the Content Management System Drupal including the Standard Drupal Configuration concept. The report is also paying attention to Web Accessibility.
Drupal 8 has been launched today! Congratulations to all contributors.
This major new release of Drupal enables administrators to roll out new releases in a quick fashion along with new functionalities.
We received a task for expanding an existing Drupal website with Newsletter (E-mail) functionality. The task originates from the Cadastre. The software needs to be ready by the end of this year on the PDOK platform.
iDelft completed a project to optimize the website accessibility of the PDOK portal. The software has been modified in association with the Cadaster and the portal has succesfully been checked by Centric for web guideline compatibility.
iDelft delivered a new operational website (www.it4hire.nl) to our associated company IT4Hire BV.
The website is responsive which is important for the Google ranking. The lay-out is changing depending on the usage on desktop computers, tablets or mobile phones. The website is aiming at two different audiences: Potential clients seeking support and self-employed IT professionals. Clients can search for candidates whereas IT-professionals can search for actual available projects. The website has been made with help of Drupal 7.

iDelft just received an order from an international consortium for the development of a new E-Learning course system. The project includes the design and technical implementation and hosting of a new course including graphical activities and video editing. The E-Learning will be made available on traditional desktop computers, but also on tablets. We are going to use the Drupal Content Management Systeem (CMS) plus additional modules.
