Practice areas

Five disciplines. One team. No handoffs.

Most providers are either narrow freelancers or generalist help desks that escalate what they can't solve. We're structured differently — five specialist practice areas under one roof, so a migration, a mail platform, and a security incident are never three different vendors.

01
Practice area

Infrastructure Migration & Modernization

Moving or rebuilding the systems underneath the business — without the downtime, data loss, or dependency surprises that make teams postpone migrations for years.

VM & Cloud Migration

Hypervisor-to-hypervisor moves, on-prem to cloud, or cloud to cloud — storage, networking and dependencies mapped before anything moves, target environment validated before the source is decommissioned.

Zero-downtime cutoverRollback planned

Email Migration

Full mailbox and domain migrations between platforms, with SPF, DKIM and DMARC rebuilt correctly so deliverability holds through the move, and mail flow validated before the old system is switched off.

Kubernetes & Docker

Containerising monolithic applications, architecting multi-node production clusters, deployment pipelines, ingress and networking — plus the on-call troubleshooting when a pod won't recover.

Practice area

Messaging & Mail Infrastructure

Mail is unglamorous until it breaks, and then it's the only thing anyone cares about. This is deliverability engineering and mail transfer agent (MTA) administration, not just "we can log into the panel."

PowerMTA

IP warm-up scheduling, throttling and rate limiting, bounce and FBL processing, and deliverability troubleshooting for senders who can't afford to land in spam.

Kerio Connect

Installation, version upgrades, server-to-server migration, and ongoing administration — mailboxes, shared calendars, mobile ActiveSync.

SmarterMail

Initial setup, spam and antivirus filter tuning, domain and user administration, troubleshooting for production environments.

Running something else? Ask us — if it moves mail, there's a good chance we've touched it.

03
Practice area

Web & Application Delivery

The layer between the internet and your application — web servers, traffic distribution, and the perimeter security that decides what gets through.

Web Server Administration

Configuration, tuning and migration across IIS, Apache, Nginx, LiteSpeed, Caddy and Tomcat — application pools, virtual hosts, and SSL lifecycle management.

IISApacheNginx+ more

Firewalls & WAF

Network firewall configuration and web application firewall (WAF) rules — a defense-in-depth layer that filters malicious traffic before it reaches your application.

Perimeter securityDDoS resilience

Load Balancing

HAProxy, Traefik and cloud-native load balancers configured for traffic distribution, failover, and high availability across nodes.

Practice area

Security & Incident Response

When something's already been compromised, this stops being routine support and becomes incident response — contain, investigate, remediate, then harden against a repeat.

WordPress Hack Recovery & Hardening

Malware and backdoor removal, entry-point identification, blacklist clearance with Google Safe Browsing, and hardening — firewall rules, file integrity monitoring, and a patch schedule — so the same vulnerability doesn't get exploited again.

05
Practice area

Managed Operations & Maintenance

The retainer layer that ties everything above together — patch management, uptime monitoring, and a support desk, so infrastructure stays in the state we leave it in instead of quietly decaying.

Patch & Update Cadence

Security patching on a fixed schedule across OS, web server, and mail platform layers — not applied reactively after something breaks.

Monitoring & Response

Uptime, resource, and service-level monitoring, with a 24/7 support desk so issues get caught and triaged before they're customer-facing.

Change Management

Configuration changes handled through a documented, low-drama process — requested, scoped, applied, and confirmed live.

Coverage

End-to-end, not vendor-locked

We're not tied to one cloud provider, one web server, or one mail platform. If it's infrastructure, there's a good chance we've already supported it.

That's exactly what the consultation call is for. Describe what you're running, and we'll tell you plainly what needs attention and what doesn't.
