Server & Cloud: AWS, Azure & VPS Deployment
Servers and cloud infrastructure sized for the workload you actually run.
Reference Architecture
How a deployment fits together.
Our Approach
We size infrastructure to the workload you actually run, not the package a vendor wants to sell. Migrations are planned around your uptime requirements, with a tested rollback path before anything goes live.
What's Included
Server & VPS Deployment
Physical servers and VPS instances provisioned on Windows Server and Linux, hardened before they take production traffic.
Cloud Server Setup & Migration
Cloud servers on AWS and Azure, and migration of on-premises workloads with a tested rollback path.
Email Server Setup & Automation
Mail servers with SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configured correctly, plus automated routing and scheduled delivery.
Virtualization
Hyper-V and VMware environments for consolidated, resilient server infrastructure.
Backup & Disaster Recovery
Automated backup scheduling with tested restore procedures and off-site replication.
Cloud Cost & Capacity Planning
Right-sizing cloud resources against actual workload demand instead of vendor defaults.

Cloud & Infrastructure
AWS vs Azure for a growing business
Both are excellent and the comparison as usually written is unusable — hundreds of services against hundreds of services. For a business with a handful of workloads, three factors decide it, and none of them appears in a feature matrix.

Linux servers for business
The distribution argument is the least important part of this decision. What matters is the support lifecycle you are committing to, whether anyone here can administer it, and whether the machine will still be patched in year four.

Server virtualisation: what it buys and what it does not
Virtualisation is treated as settled and mostly is. What is not settled is what it actually provides — because several things routinely credited to it, including availability and backup, it does not provide at all.

Hybrid infrastructure: deciding what goes where
Almost every growing business is already hybrid, usually by accident. Making it deliberate means answering one question per workload — and the answer turns on data gravity, latency and exit cost far more than on any cloud-versus-on-premises argument.

Windows Server: the practices that actually matter
Most Windows Server advice is a list of settings. The things that cause real outages are lifecycle dates nobody tracked, roles piled onto one machine, and a domain controller nobody has ever restored. Those are the ones worth the attention.

VMware vs Hyper-V
This stopped being a technical comparison some years ago. For a growing business both hypervisors do what is needed, and the decision now turns on licensing, on the skills you already have, and on how much a migration would cost if you chose wrong.
