Managed VPS

A system administrator and DevOps team for your server: from Linux system maintenance, through the operation of LAMP or Nginx-based web servers and security hardening, to the development of CI/CD processes, with or without Docker.

  • Running Linux
  • Security hardening
  • CI/CD and Docker

What do we offer?

We tailor the service to your requirements: you can request just operating system maintenance, or the operation of the entire environment, from the web server right through to automated installation.

Linux operations

The basics: we ensure that the server’s operating system is up to date, stable and monitored.

  • system and security updates carried out in a planned and controlled manner
  • Managing users, SSH keys and permissions
  • resource, service and disk monitoring, with alerts
  • monitoring logs and troubleshooting
  • Configuring backups and regularly testing the restore process

LAMP and Nginx web servers

Setting up and operating a web server environment for websites, online shops and web applications.

  • Apache or Nginx, PHP-FPM, with up to several PHP versions
  • MySQL, MariaDB or PostgreSQL database server
  • SSL certificates with automatic renewal
  • Caching (OPcache, Redis) and performance tuning
  • Migration of websites and databases

Security and hardening

To harden the server so that the attack surface is as small as possible and we are notified of suspicious events in good time.

  • SSH security: key-based authentication, disabling password and root access
  • firewall and fail2ban, with only the necessary ports open
  • disabling unnecessary services, minimum permissions
  • SELinux or AppArmor, malware detection
  • automatic security updates and logging

CI/CD and Docker

Automated build, testing and deployment, ensuring your code goes live reliably after a commit, without the need for manual steps.

  • Development and maintenance of GitLab CI or GitHub Actions pipelines
  • Building Docker images, Docker Compose environments
  • Installation without Docker: rsync, SSH, systemd services
  • separate test (staging) and production environments
  • replicable server configuration, for example using Ansible

This is how we work

Assessment

We’ll discuss which applications are running or will be running on the server, what the current environment is like, and what you expect from the operation.

Offer

Based on the assessment, we set out the tasks, areas of responsibility and price in writing, whether it is a monthly service contract or a one-off project.

Deployment

We set up or take over the server, enhance its security, configure the web server and the installation process, and document the environment.

Operations

We will then continuously monitor, update and improve the system, and any changes will be carried out in consultation with you and in a planned manner.

Who is it for?

For those who need the flexibility of a VPS but do not wish to hire a system administrator, or who want their developers to focus on development rather than operations.

For development teams

If your team is developing an application but doesn’t have a dedicated DevOps engineer, we’ll take care of the servers and the deployment process. We’ll set up the CI/CD pipeline, the test and production environments, and ensure that releasing a new version is a simple, repeatable process, rather than a risky weekend operation.

For agencies

As a web development agency, you can host multiple client websites on your own VPS, with standardised, secure settings. We take care of the web server, updates and backups, so you can focus on developing for your clients without having to sort out every server issue yourself.

For businesses without a system administrator

If your company runs an in-house system, an online shop or a bespoke application, but doesn’t have its own system administrator, you can entrust us with the full management of your server. You can turn to a team that knows your system if there’s a fault or if you’d like to make any changes.

Managed VPS: Questions and Answers

Managed VPS FAQs

How much does a managed VPS cost?

The price of a managed VPS is always tailored to your specific needs, as it depends on the tasks involved: how many servers need to be operated, what services are running on them, how complex the environment is, and how quickly you need a response. We charge for ongoing operations on a monthly subscription basis, whilst larger, one-off tasks – such as setting up a new environment or developing a CI/CD process – are priced on a project basis. Let us know what you need, and we’ll send you a quote.

How is it different from a standard KVM VPS?

With a KVM VPS, you manage the server yourself: you install and update the system, configure the firewall and monitor the services. With a managed VPS, you get the same server, but our system administrators carry out the operational tasks, so you only need to focus on your applications.

KVM VPS plans

What is the difference between a managed VPS and a dedicated cPanel server?

The dedicated cPanel server is a complete plan: a KVM VPS with a cPanel licence and managed hosting, allowing you to manage your websites via the familiar cPanel interface. The managed VPS offers greater flexibility: there is no fixed interface; we tailor the environment to your application, whether that involves a custom Nginx configuration, multiple application servers, Docker containers or a complete CI/CD process.

Dedicated cPanel server

What operating systems did they run?

We work with the most widely used Linux distributions on servers: AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, CloudLinux, Debian and Ubuntu. If your existing system is different from these, or is running on an old, end-of-life version, we can help with that too – for example, by helping you plan an upgrade or a migration.

Can I keep my own access to the server?

Yes, the server is yours, and we’ll agree on the access arrangements together. If your developers are also working on the server, we’ll set out the responsibilities in advance – for example, who can install plans and who can modify the web server settings – so that changes do not overwrite one another.

Do you take on one-off jobs as well?

Yes. We can undertake server deployment, a security audit and hardening of an existing system, migration, performance tuning or the implementation of a CI/CD process as one-off projects; afterwards, you can decide whether to entrust us with the ongoing operation as well.
