Availability monitoring
Monitoring of agreed server availability, resource use, service health and important operational conditions.
Infrastructure and security
Server management built around availability, security and recovery.
Servers often support several critical business systems at once. We provide clear technical ownership of the operating environment, routine maintenance, monitoring and agreed recovery arrangements.
Discuss your requirementsManaged infrastructure
Important systems need visible responsibility.
A server may run quietly in the background while supporting files, applications, communications, authentication or operational services. Without clear ownership, routine maintenance and recovery planning can easily be overlooked.
We manage each server according to its role, operating system, dependencies and operational importance—not merely whether it is physical, virtual or hosted in the cloud.
What we manage
The operating environment and its ongoing condition.
Patch management
Planned operating-system and security updates with consideration for compatibility and operational impact.
Security foundations
Administrative access, firewall configuration, supported software and other agreed server-level safeguards.
Backup coordination
Backup protection aligned with the server’s role, information and recovery requirements.
Technical documentation
Records of server roles, dependencies, access, configuration and important support arrangements.
Incident support
Investigation and recovery support for faults affecting the managed server environment.
Supported environments
Physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure.
Each server or virtual machine is assessed as an individual managed system. Complexity, workload and dependencies determine the final service scope.
Physical servers
Management of the operating system and agreed services, with hardware monitoring where supported.
Virtual machines
Windows or Linux virtual servers managed independently according to their role and complexity.
Cloud and VPS servers
Managed server instances hosted by suitable cloud or virtual-server providers.
Virtualisation hosts
Proxmox and other agreed platforms managed under a separately defined virtualisation scope.
Management requirements
A server must remain supportable.
Managed servers normally need:
- A supported and patchable operating system.
- Appropriate administrative or root access.
- Agreed monitoring and management tools.
- A suitable backup and recovery arrangement.
- Documented roles, dependencies and responsible suppliers.
- Sufficient resources for the workload being operated.
Clear service boundaries
Infrastructure and application responsibilities are defined separately.
Server operating environment
The operating system, monitoring, maintenance, access and agreed infrastructure services form the core server-management scope.
Applications and databases
Complex applications, database platforms and specialist workloads may require a separate management scope or application supplier.
Physical hardware
Hardware monitoring can be included where supported. Repairs, warranties and replacement equipment remain separately defined.
High availability
Clustering, replication and high-availability environments require bespoke design, testing and support arrangements.
