Deploy · Monitor · Respond
Someone has to answer when there is a problem.
Software is not finished when it ships. We host, monitor, patch, back up and answer for the systems that matter - on cloud, on-premise or somewhere in between.
What we do
Hosting & operations, in detail.
Managed hosting
Cloud, on-premise and hybrid. We size it, build it, secure it and keep it patched - including the awkward estates with a physical dependency that cannot move.
Monitoring & alerting
Availability, performance and business-level monitoring, with alert thresholds set so that a page means something. Dashboards you can read without a translator.
Backup & recovery
Backup regimes designed against a stated recovery objective, and - the part that gets skipped - restores actually tested on a schedule.
Release & deployment
Build and release pipelines, staged environments, and deployments that are routine and reversible rather than an event requiring a weekend.
Support & response
Defined response arrangements, including out-of-hours where the system warrants it, handled by engineers who know the codebase rather than a script.
Security operations
Patching, certificate and secret management, access review, vulnerability response and the audit trail to evidence all of it.
What you get
Outcomes, not deliverables.
- Systems that stay up, and a clear story when they do not
- Restores that have been proven, not assumed
- Deployments that are routine rather than an event
- One number to call when something is wrong
Good fit for
When people call us about this.
- Systems too important to leave unmonitored and too small for an in-house SRE team
- Estates that are part cloud, part on-premise and wholly undocumented
- Organisations whose backup has never actually been restored
- Handing over an application whose original supplier has gone quiet
How it runs
From first call to steady state.
-
Step 01
Assess
What is running, where, on what, and what happens when it stops.
-
Step 02
Stabilise
Close the immediate gaps - backups, patching, access, monitoring blind spots.
-
Step 03
Transition
Bring the estate under management with agreed response arrangements.
-
Step 04
Operate
Run it, report on it, and keep improving it rather than merely holding the line.
Also worth a look
The other three.
Software development
Custom systems taken from a blank page to a tested, documented, deployable product - by the people who will go on running it.
ExploreManaged IT services
The whole IT estate looked after by one supplier - end-user support, networks, identity, security and procurement.
ExploreProfessional services
Expertise on tap - consultancy, project management, technical due diligence and embedded specialists for as long as you need them.
