anglais translation: web-based platform

Terme ou expression en français : dispositif web
A bit of context - XXX doit se doter d’un dispositif Internet moderne - I know what they mean but can't think of how to express it in English! It refers to the reconstruction of a site and the restructuring (modernising) of a co's internet practices - it is being sold as a package so don't think simple website will do - I thought about Internet vehicle but it sounds a bit odd - is there an official word or does anyone have any bright ideas?

Traduction en anglais :web-based platform
Explication :
Platform is suitably vague and precise at the same time - covering both hardware and software.

"modern web-based platform" - gets plenty of ghits.

Explication :
This is how I'd say it based on your explanation, especially if we're talking about redesigning/restructuring the current web applications.

Explication :
Maybe something like this to kick things off - suitability of latter suggestion would depend on context.

Accord  yieto: Good solution. Note to everyone: "Web" in this context is capitalized (Web-based platform, Web design, etc.) per OED and Merriam-Webster both.

I would say... based on the context you have provided. A web browsing device may include software such as Internet
radio, an RSS news reader, image viewer, media players for selected types of media, etc.
