Software nobody looks after **fails eventually**, usually at the worst moment. I make sure your website, your email and your applications **run reliably**. You have **one contact** for everything around operations, instead of wrestling with providers, updates and certificates yourself. **Servers in Germany**, fixed response times and verified backups included. ## I make sure it runs I do **not run my own data centre**. Instead I rely on **established providers in Germany** such as Hetzner and IONOS and make sure your projects there are **set up correctly, secured and maintained**. For you that means: no dealing with plans, server configuration or support hotlines. **I pick what fits**, set it up and stay on it afterwards. This is not limited to projects I built myself. I also take over **existing websites and applications** and **migrate them cleanly** on request. Web space, mailboxes, certificates ## Websites & email Your website and your **email mailboxes** run on servers in Germany, managed with **Plesk**. I set up domains, **SSL certificates** and mailboxes and keep them up to date. You get **email addresses on your own domain** without having to deal with the tech. Need a new mailbox or a forward? Just let me know. More than web space ## Applications & virtual servers Web applications and custom software often need **more than classic web space**. For that I set up dedicated **virtual servers and VMs**, virtualized with **Proxmox** and with **Docker** where needed, cleanly separated from other projects. For managing many Proxmox hosts I even built my own panel, **NexoVirt**. So I know how the tech works under the hood. For existing projects too ## Stress-free migration Your website or application sits with another provider and nobody really takes care of it? I **also take over existing projects** I did not build myself. I plan the **migration** so website and email keep running **without long outages**: transfer the data, switch domains, check everything, and only then switch over. Ongoing care included ## Maintenance, updates & backups I apply **updates and security patches** regularly, so your system does not become outdated and vulnerable. **Monitoring** runs around the clock and raises an alert before you notice anything. Backups run regularly, and I **also verify the restore**. A backup is only worth something if it really works in an emergency. **Smaller changes are included**, larger ones we discuss beforehand. Clear commitments ## Fixed response times Operations run on **fixed response times**: critical incident **within 4 hours at most**, regular request **within one business day**, **reachable around the clock** in an emergency. To cover outages I work with a **fixed network** that can step in. You have **one dedicated contact** instead of a ticket number and a call centre. ## How your project gets into good hands 1. Inventory We look at **what you have today**: website, email, applications, domains and where everything lives. 2. Setup or migration I set up the **right environment** with a German provider or migrate your existing project. 3. Switch over & check Only once everything is tested do I switch domains and email, **without long outages**. 4. Ongoing operation Updates, monitoring and backups keep running, and when something goes wrong I respond with **fixed response times**. ## What do hosting & operations cost? Hosting and operations are **ongoing monthly costs**. The amount depends on **what you book**: just the website, email hosting on top, or a dedicated server for your application. Updates, security, monitoring and verified backups are **included**, as are **smaller changes**. Larger adjustments and a migration we discuss **with you beforehand**, so you know where you stand. ### Frequently asked questions Do you run your own data center? No. Your projects run at **Hetzner or IONOS on servers in Germany**. I set them up, operate them and keep an eye on them. What is included in ongoing operations? **Updates and security**, **backups with restore tests**, **monitoring with alerts** and small changes. The exact scope depends on the service you book. How fast do you respond to incidents? For a **critical incident within 4 hours at most**, for normal requests **within one business day**. In an emergency I can be reached around the clock, and a **fixed network** can step in if I am unavailable. Do you take over existing websites or applications? Yes, including projects someone else built, **with migration** from your current host. Do you also offer email hosting? Yes. **Mailboxes with your own domain**, set up and maintained, on request together with your website and applications.
