Infrastructure people forget about, because it keeps working.

We handle servers, networks and the unglamorous plumbing behind small companies' systems. No dashboards nobody reads. No migrations nobody asked for.

APPROACH

Most infrastructure problems aren't technical — they're inherited. Someone set something up in a hurry three years ago, it worked, and nobody's touched it since because touching it feels risky. We start by reading what's actually there before suggesting what should replace it.

The best infrastructure work is invisible. If a client notices their server, something already went wrong.

We keep a short client list on purpose. Fewer relationships, more context per system — which means fewer surprises at 2am, for us and for you.

WORK

AUDIT

Infrastructure review

A plain-language map of what's running, why, and what breaks first under load.

SETUP

Server & network config

Linux hosts, routing, backups, monitoring — built to be understood by whoever inherits it next.

OPS

Ongoing care

Scheduled maintenance and incident response, scoped ahead of time — no open-ended retainers.

ADVISORY

One-off consulting

A single focused session on one decision: hosting choice, backup strategy, an architecture question.

CONTACT

Short description of the problem gets a faster reply than a long one. Usually within a working day.
