Launch is the beginning, not the end

Someone whose job it is to keep it running.

Server setup, deployment, SSL, backups, monitoring, and an ongoing support plan for the systems we build and the ones we inherit.

What's included

Server provisioning and domain setup
SSL, automated backups, and restore drills
Deployment pipeline and staged releases
Support plans with agreed response times

A system that nobody patches, backs up, or monitors becomes a liability quickly. The unglamorous work — certificates, backups, upgrades, log review — is what keeps a business application trustworthy.

We take that on for the systems we build, and for systems built by someone else that need a new home.

What we actually do

The work that makes up a hosting & support engagement.

Server setup

Managed hosting or cloud server provisioning, application and database tuning, domain and DNS configuration.

SSL and security

Certificates installed and auto-renewed, security headers set, and dependency updates applied on a schedule.

Automated backups

Scheduled database and file backups held off-server, with restores tested rather than assumed.

Deployment pipeline

Repeatable releases with migrations, cache warming, and a rollback path.

Monitoring

Uptime checks, error tracking, and disk and queue alerts routed to a person, not an inbox nobody reads.

Support plans

Agreed response times for incidents, plus a monthly allowance for small changes and enhancements.

Typical stack

What we normally reach for. Swapped where your environment calls for something else.

How the work runs

Discovery & Scoping

We sit with the people who will use the system, map the current process, and write down exactly what the software has to do.

Design & Architecture

Screens, data model, and access rules are agreed before a line of production code is written, so there are no surprises later.

Build & Review

Short delivery cycles with a working build you can open and click through at the end of each one.

Launch & Support

Data migration, staff training, go-live, then ongoing maintenance and enhancements on a plan that suits you.

Common questions

Yes, after an audit. We give you a written assessment of the codebase and hosting before quoting a support plan.

Other services

Custom Software Software shaped around your process, not the other way round. Web Development Fast, secure web platforms that work on every screen. Mobile Apps Apps for the staff and customers who are never at a desk. Business Systems Start from a working system instead of a blank page.
