HOSTING & CONNECTIONS
Cloud infrastructure and Kubernetes services
Set up and maintain the online systems that run your apps. Useful when launching software, moving servers, or preparing for more users.
Choose hosting around the software you run
Hosting is the server environment that keeps an application available to its users. The right setup depends on the application, the data it handles, how many people use it, and who will look after it.
We can help plan a new environment or move an existing application. The plan covers access, deployment, monitoring, and recovery requirements. Ongoing support and responsibilities are agreed as part of the project.
What the work can include
- Plan hosting on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud
- Help move your apps and their data
- Set up monitoring and agree on ongoing support
Choose an environment that fits the application
The starting point is the application and how it is used, not a fixed list of cloud products. We review dependencies, expected traffic, data handling, and the team available to maintain the environment.
Kubernetes can be considered when container orchestration fits the workload and operating model. A simpler environment may be more suitable when the application does not need that level of coordination.
Plan the move as well as the destination
A migration plan needs to account for the application, its data, configuration, and external connections. We establish how the team will verify the new environment before users rely on it.
The plan should also identify the cutover steps, responsibilities, and what to do if the move cannot proceed as expected. Monitoring and agreed recovery procedures remain part of the operating plan after the move.
Questions about this service
Do we need Kubernetes for every application?
No. The environment should match the application and the team operating it. We review whether its capabilities justify the additional management involved.
Can you move an existing application to the cloud?
We can assess its dependencies, data, and connection requirements and propose a migration plan. The supported path depends on the existing application and destination.
Who pays the cloud provider and maintains the setup?
Cloud account ownership, provider charges, and support responsibilities should be agreed explicitly. They are not automatically covered by an initial development scope.
