OSInet is a training and consulting firm, specialized in audit and consulting on performance and security issues for Drupal sites.

We work for site implementors, be they site owners or web agencies working for them, from the requirements stage, through development, to release, and most often after release.

Most of our business is about expertise services for actual site developers, like software and hardware architecture, performance tuning, security review or fixes, etc, rather than actual site delivery, but we will often create specific limited functionality, like complexe Drupal upgrades from pre-Drupal 8, migration from or access to legacy data sources, web services or non-PHP code, mostly Google Go (Golang), JavaScript/TypeScript (Node.JS), C/C++, or Cobol.

We train developers, advise and lead development teams for technical choices in code and site architecture, perform code reviews, audits, and sometimes act as an arbiter providing unbiased expert review when disagreements arise between site owner and agency.
