Pousto

Pousto is a flexible framework for order management and transaction processing. As a computing platform, it incorporates an easy-to-use user interface, secure access and full audit trails. The system is scalable and can be configured in a number of ways depending upon the level of resilience that you require. Pousto is normally implemented on a single database, in order to facilitate backups, data logging and data replication.

The name "pou sto" comes from the reputed saying of Archimedes, "Give me where I may stand and I will move the whole world with my steelyard". It means a place to stand upon and, hence, a foundation or basis for operations.
