Cloud, DevOps and software maintenance

Deployments, monitoring and maintenance plans so your software stays fast, patched and online. We run our own products the same way.

What's included

  • CI/CD pipelines
  • Cost-aware hosting and infrastructure
  • Monitoring and error reporting
  • Performance tuning
  • Long-term maintenance and new features

01What we build

Typical projects

CI/CD

Automated build and release pipelines, so shipping a change is routine and a bad release can be rolled back.

Hosting and infrastructure

Containerized apps on servers or cloud services chosen with cost and reliability weighed together, with HTTPS certificates renewed automatically.

Monitoring

Error reporting, uptime checks and queue monitoring, so problems are noticed by us before your users report them.

Maintenance

Security updates, dependency upgrades, performance tuning and new features after launch, planned rather than left until something breaks.

02Proof

Darqora

We set up, host and update a copy of Darqora for each company that uses it. Our own products run in Docker containers on a Linux server we manage, behind Caddy, with automatic HTTPS from Let’s Encrypt.

03How it works

The process, step by step

Each step ends with something you can read, click or ship.

Start with discovery
  1. Review the current setup

    We look at how the app is deployed, where it runs, how it is backed up, who has server access, and what has gone wrong before.

    You get A written review of risks, ranked, with a recommended setup

  2. Plan the target setup

    We plan containers, hosting, HTTPS, backups, monitoring and the release process, with hosting cost and reliability weighed together.

    You get An infrastructure plan with expected hosting costs and a written estimate for the work

  3. Move and automate

    We containerize the app, set up automated builds and deployments, and move it to the new setup with a rollback plan ready.

    You get Automated deployments and a rollback that has been tested

  4. Run and maintain

    Monitoring, updates, security patches, performance work and new features continue under a support plan agreed with you.

    You get A support plan with monitoring alerts and regular update reports

04Good fit

A good fit when…

  • Releases are manual, slow or stressful.
  • Hosting cost or reliability is becoming a concern.
  • You are about to launch and want the product deployed properly.
  • You want the team that builds your product to also keep it running.

Candidly

Probably not a fit when…

  • You need a large operations team with round-the-clock staff on call. A specialist operations provider will suit you better.
  • You only need basic hosting for a static website. A managed hosting plan will cost less.

05FAQ

Common questions

Ask us directly
What is CI/CD?

Continuous integration and continuous delivery. Every change is built, tested and released through an automated pipeline instead of by hand, which makes releases smaller, more frequent and less risky, and makes rolling back a bad release a routine step.

Can you take over an app another team built?

Yes. We start with a review of the code, the hosting and the release process, so we know what we are taking on. We then fix the most urgent risks first, such as missing backups, expired certificates or manual deployments, before taking on new features.

Where do you host?

Our own products run in Docker containers on a Linux server we manage, behind Caddy, with HTTPS certificates from Let’s Encrypt renewed automatically. For clients we choose hosting that fits the app’s load, budget and data requirements, and we can work in an account you own.

Can you help keep hosting costs under control?

Yes. We size servers and services for the load you actually have, remove resources nobody uses, and plan reliability measures such as backups and monitoring alongside cost, not instead of it.

How much does a maintenance or support plan cost?

It depends on the size and age of the codebase, how many environments and servers it runs on, how often it needs updates, the response you need when something breaks, and how much new feature work you expect. After a short review of the app and its hosting we send a written estimate for the setup work and for the support plan.

What happens when something breaks?

Monitoring and error reporting, for example with Sentry, tell us about problems as they happen, often before users notice. How quickly we respond, and through which channel, is agreed in writing in the support plan so both sides know what to expect.
