Servers, infrastructure and deployment
The right environment behind the application.
Good software also needs a well prepared place to run. Set up server environments, organise deployment and make routine operation clearer, whether the application runs on your own hardware or an agreed hosting platform.
Discuss this serviceWhat the work can include
Practical delivery.
Clear purpose.
Server and environment setup
Linux and Windows server preparation, application services, virtual machine setup and environment specific configuration.
Application hosting and access
Web servers, reverse proxies, certificates, application runtimes, service permissions and appropriate access configuration.
Containers and release pipelines
Container packaging, build workflows and deployment procedures that reduce variation between environments.
Operational handover
Startup and shutdown procedures, log locations, health checks, backup arrangements and clear guidance for routine tasks.
The final scope, deliverables and support arrangements are agreed around your project.
A typical brief
A practical change
in the way work happens.
Every release involves a different set of manual commands known only to the person who last deployed it.
A documented build and release process uses consistent configuration, with checks and an agreed recovery route.
Illustrative scenario. The right solution depends on the process, data and systems involved.
A little more detail
Before you get started.
Can you work with an existing server?
Yes. The first step is to review its current services, access and dependencies, then agree a change plan that protects the applications already using it.
Can the application run on our own premises?
Yes, where the hardware and network meet the requirements. Hosting, local deployment and hybrid arrangements can be considered during planning.
