Linux server management
A server that works makes no headlines, until something breaks in the evening or an overdue update opens the door to an attack. That is what a management plan is for: someone keeps an eye on it every day, updates it methodically and warns you before the problem reaches your customers.
There are three plans, and they differ on two points: who has their hands on the server and how many requests you need each month. If you run the server yourself and just need to know when something is wrong, there is Monitoring. If you'd rather not think about it, we manage the server, and only we do.
We work on Debian, Ubuntu, AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux, with Nginx, Apache, PHP, MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL and Redis: the stack behind most websites and web applications.

It's right for you if
- you have a website, a shop or an application on a Linux server and nobody in the company looks after it
- the server was set up years ago by someone who has left and nobody quite knows what runs on it
- you want to know the site is down before a customer tells you
- you'd rather have a clear monthly fee and one point of contact than look for a technician every time
- someone already runs the server, but you need a watch on it that reports problems: that is the Monitoring plan
How we work
Onboarding
Inventory of what runs on the server, new access credentials, baseline hardening, monitoring and backups set up.
Documentation
We write down what is there and how to restore it. The documentation is yours and stays yours.
Maintenance
Scheduled security updates, alert checks, backups verified with restore tests.
Monthly report
What we did, what we saw and what is worth planning, written without jargon.
Frequently asked questions
Why don't I get admin access with Managed server?
Because two people changing the same configuration are the most common cause of outages, and when something breaks nobody knows who touched what. If you need a change you ask, and we make it and document it. If you ever switch provider, we hand over access and documentation.
What does the fee include and what doesn't it?
The fee covers routine maintenance: security updates, monitoring, backup checks and the report. Repairs, changes, new installations and migrations are billed hourly (€75/hour) or from a package, with an estimate before we start. With the Plus plan the first hour of requests each month is included.
How much is onboarding?
€199 one-off for Managed server and Plus, €75 for Monitoring. It is free with a 12-month commitment.
What happens if the server goes down at night?
Without an on-call plan out-of-hours work is not guaranteed: we step in if someone is available, otherwise when we reopen. If your service can't stay down, add an on-call plan from €200/month, which guarantees pickup within one hour and already includes monitoring.
Does the server have to be with a particular provider?
No: a dedicated server, a VPS or a cloud machine on Google Cloud, AWS, DigitalOcean or other providers all work. For onboarding we need admin access.
