Provision & harden
Key-only SSH, firewall rules, automatic security updates, no root login.
Run your application on a server you control. Configure Linux systems, reverse proxy, SSL certificates, automated backups and monitoring with documented tasks.
We eliminate speculative quotes and opaque management layers. Every project is scoped directly by the engineers writing the code, adhering to non-negotiable architectural standards, continuous testing, and full code handover.
Edge-distributed static assets and sub-second database query execution.
Zero single point of failure with automated health checks and container failover.
Unconditional repository, database schema, and design token handover.
Direct architecture scoping and sprint delivery without management layers.
TLS 1.3 in transit, automated backups, and zero hardcoded credentials.
Interactive operational simulation for server setup & managed hosting. Walk through the operational stages to inspect data contracts, user actions, and backend verification hooks before kickoff.

Human-visible outcome
Understand the decisions, prepare a useful brief and know what to review before launch.
Server setup should start with the workload and the responsibilities around it. Clarify which applications will run, who controls the domain and backups, and who handles routine updates. A managed setup needs an operating agreement as well as an initial installation.
We start with your workload, current risks and the people who will maintain the system. Environments, access, monitoring and backups should be understandable. A deployment is incomplete without a tested recovery approach and a handover your team can follow.

A starting point for discussion. Agree the final release boundaries during discovery.
Prepare a server for the agreed application with access controls, domain and certificate setup, monitoring and a recovery plan. Record who owns updates, backups and incident response.
Additional services, separate workloads and capacity changes should be planned after observing how the initial application uses the server.
A small business may host a website and an internal app on one server. Review resource limits and access separately so a problem in one application has a clear diagnosis and does not leave every administrator sharing the same credentials.
Confirm access ownership, update procedures and a documented restore exercise. Check application health and certificate renewal responsibilities during handover.
Agree how much recent data the business can afford to lose and how quickly the service must recover. Test a restore in a separate environment, record the steps and assign an owner. Apply the same discipline to deployment rollback and access recovery.
See the common operating problem, its likely cause, the business impact, and the control a custom server setup & managed hosting build can introduce. These are planning examples; your priorities and acceptance criteria are confirmed during discovery.

“The hosting account is in the agency's name, so leaving means rebuilding from scratch.”
Hardened end-to-end API orchestration with automatic webhook dispatch, audit logs, and zero manual touchpoints.
Select the modules, integrations, and delivery pace that fit your situation. See an indicative range first, or send your current workflow for a human review.
Illustrative planning only · Final scope, acceptance criteria, timing, and milestone pricing are confirmed in writing.
Start with the work your team needs to improve. Agree on the workflow, the people responsible and the checks that will show whether the new system is ready to use.
Every outcome is verified against production telemetry benchmarks established during discovery before full deployment.
The account is in your name, so changing provider or developer is a handover rather than a rebuild. This is the single most valuable thing on this page.
The two most common avoidable outages are an expired certificate and a full disk. Both are monitored with alerts before they bite.
A restore performed in front of you converts "we have backups" into an actual number.
Each item below represents an engineered, verifiable deliverable—not vague marketing promises. Everything we build is deployed to your private infrastructure with container blueprints, documented runbooks, and zero vendor lock-in.
Key-only SSH, firewall rules, automatic security updates, no root login.
Nginx with automated certificate renewal that we verify renews.
Services restart on failure and survive a reboot.
Scheduled, off-server, and restored once in front of you.
Uptime, disk, memory and certificate expiry alerts.
Credentials handed to you in a password manager, not a chat message.
Choose an infrastructure tier, delivery stages, cloud integrations, and timeline to see an indicative range before discovery.
Explore the range without sharing your email. We confirm the final scope and price after reviewing your requirements.
Count the distinct setup or release stages your team needs to operate.
These selections travel with your brief. The range below is calculated from the tier, workflow count, connected systems and delivery pace.
This planning range uses the selected scope inputs. Final deliverables, exclusions, and milestone prices are confirmed in writing.
This does not place an order. We review the configuration and reply with the confirmed scope and milestone proposal.
Describe the workflow you are trying to fix and we will reply with the smallest build that solves it — including what we would leave out of phase one and why. If an off-the-shelf tool is the better answer for you, we will say so instead of quoting.
Delivery Roadmap
You create the hosting account. We work inside it.
Server built and hardened, with the configuration recorded.
A restore from backup and a reboot, both performed and observed.
Access, documentation and an escalation path.
Scope Levers
Nothing here ships as a fixed package. Delivery opens with "Your account" — You create the hosting account. We work inside it — and that is the step where the scope below gets decided with you.
6 areas make up this build. Which of them you need, how deep each goes, and what ships first is set per client — we customise the depth rather than charging for shelfware.
Where your team already has tooling, the build fits it instead of replacing it. These are the defaults we start from, swapped when your environment calls for something else.
There are limits to what we will bend, and they are listed under “when this is the wrong service to buy” below.
Concrete artefacts, source code, and configurations owned 100% by you on delivery.
Cases where we would tell you not to spend the money, or where a cheaper tool fits better.
Commercial Terms
No retainer minimums, no discovery fee, and no proposal that hides the price on page nine. These terms are the same for every project on this page.
Scope is priced before work starts and billed per completed milestone. No hourly meter and no invoice you did not see coming.
Repository, database and hosting accounts sit in your name from day one. Stopping work never costs you access to anything.
We sign first, then you send exports, screenshots or credentials. Nothing becomes a public case study without written approval.
You talk to the person writing the code, not an account manager relaying your requirements second-hand.
Direct Answers
Because the work varies with what you are running and how many services need managing, and because the hosting bill is yours and paid directly to the provider. Setup is quoted as a scoped piece of work; ongoing support is hourly or a small monthly retainer, agreed in writing.
No. You pay the provider directly, which keeps the account and the data in your name. We bill only for the work.
Usually. We start with an audit and tell you honestly whether hardening it is cheaper than rebuilding it — sometimes it is not.

Projects rarely stop at Server Setup & Managed Hosting. These are the adjacent capabilities most often folded into the same delivery plan.
