Our Success Stories

Technological infrastructure development and integration of international publishing standards

Case Study: Academic Journal of Internal Affairs

For one of the leading journals in the domestic scientific sphere, it was crucial to maintain a stable, secure platform that complies with international indexing expectations.

Challenges and Solutions:

  • Modern, containerized architecture: A dedicated, Docker Compose-based server environment with an Nginx proxy.
  • DOI and Crossmark integration: Implementation of DOI registration workflows and the Crossmark metadata plugin.
  • Editorial workflows: Reducing administrative burdens by restructuring the permission system.
"The implemented IT infrastructure and the integration of international identifiers allow our editorial board to focus exclusively on scientific quality assurance and content."
– Csaba Szabó Ph.D, Academic Journal of Internal Affairs

Frequently Asked Questions

We provide clear answers

What is OJS and why do we need it?
Open Journal Systems (OJS) is the world's most widely used open-source journal management system. You need a reliable OJS hosting because international databases (e.g., DOAJ, Scopus) have strict technical and metadata requirements that a simple website cannot fulfill.
How to start an academic journal?
Every project is unique, but installing the core system, applying for an ISSN, and configuring the design usually takes 2-4 weeks with our management after clarifying the requirements.
Do you also help digitize past issues?
Yes, in the case of an OJS migration service, we handle the structured uploading of past issue archives and retroactive DOI registration service for journals in the Crossref system.
How do you guarantee Scopus inclusion?
The committee's decision cannot be 100% guaranteed, but the infrastructure we build, the Crossmark integration, and the professional quality plan (publisher ethics audit) ensure that the journal fully meets the indexing requirements from a technical standpoint.
