A TRANSFORMATION AWAY FROM MICROSOFT ACCESS
Since 2021, Titanom Technologies GmbH has maintained a close development partnership with ProtoSoft AG for the product Procurat! This is an administration software that understands the requirements of school administrations and combines them with technical expertise. Together, we have transferred the on-premise solution that has been established for decades into a scalable cloud system and successfully migrated numerous schools.
The ProtoSoft AG is a renowned IT company that has been developing and delivering robust IT solutions to customers from various segments since 1999. These include the Procurat! school administration software, which is used at over 300 independent schools in Germany. This software was originally developed on the basis of Microsoft Access and operated on-premise in the individual schools. Procurat! includes numerous administration modules, a document repository, import and export functions and connections to common third-party providers such as Datev, making it a central component of the school infrastructure. The technology partnership with Titanom Technologies GmbH was established to further promote automation and digitalization in schools.
The migration of the Procurat! management software can essentially be divided into three phases: the cloud-native rewrite, the deployment and the data migration to the new cloud system. Titanom Technologies GmbH took on a large part of the rewrite and was responsible for the cloud deployment. Due to various GDPR and BSI guidelines, numerous interfaces had to be redesigned and precisely implemented during the cloud migration so as not to create any new risks.
Ultimately, individual instances were hosted by a German cloud provider using an Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) management unit. The implementation of numerous interfaces to applications that continue to be operated on-premise in the schools was ensured and the administrative data was then migrated. The standardized and centrally controlled infrastructure made it possible to significantly simplify backup processes and availability guarantees, which significantly improved the user experience of the software.

Titanom Technologies GmbH demonstrated outstanding expertise in supporting the conversion of ProtoSoft AG’s school administration software “Procurat!” to a web-based client-server structure. Titanom played a crucial role in the development of several sub-components and took the main responsibility for the dockerization and deployment of the application. With in-depth expertise in the cloud sector and a strong understanding of the regulatory requirements of educational institutions, the Titanom team made essential contributions to the project. Thanks to the reliable cooperation with Titanom’s experts, important sub-project goals were met on time.
