Server Configuration
We install and configure physical and virtualized servers tailored to your company's needs.
A well-configured server is the difference between hours of debugging when something fails and clear logs that point straight to the problem. Standard configuration means consistent naming, optimized parameters, hardened security, active monitoring, and documentation any member of the technical team can read and understand.
What's Included?
- Linux and Windows servers with security hardening.
- Web service configuration (Apache, Nginx), databases, and email.
- Virtualization with VMware, Proxmox, or Hyper-V to optimize resources.
- Configuration versioned as code (Ansible, Terraform) for reproducibility.
- High availability with active/passive clusters or load balancers where applicable.
- Technical documentation, diagrams, and operational runbooks.
Ideal For
Companies deploying their own application that need the server ready and hardened, migration projects where the new environment must be prepared before cutover, organizations looking to move from shared hosting to dedicated infrastructure, and teams who prefer a specialist to build the foundation so they can operate it confidently afterward.
How We Work
We gather the technical requirements (which application will run, what connections it needs, what traffic volume is expected) and size the server accordingly. We install the operating system following CIS benchmarks, configure the services with parameters optimized for the workload, and version all the configuration in a repository. We deliver with load testing, complete documentation, and training for the team that will operate it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Physical, virtual, or cloud server?
Physical: maximum performance and control, but inflexible. Virtual on your own infrastructure (ESXi, Proxmox): a good balance if you already have hardware. Cloud (AWS EC2, GCP, Azure): elasticity with no upfront CAPEX, ideal for variable workloads. We evaluate it based on your case, budget, and availability needs. Often the answer is hybrid.
Ubuntu, Debian, RHEL, or Rocky Linux?
For production servers in SMBs, Ubuntu LTS is the most common choice for its balance between modernity and support. Debian for maximum stability. RHEL/Rocky when there are enterprise requirements or integration with Red Hat products. The real difference in day-to-day operation is minimal — we choose based on your team's familiarity and required support.
Is the configuration documented for my team?
Yes. In addition to text documentation (parameters, paths, services, passwords in a secrets manager), we deliver the configuration versioned in Git with Ansible playbooks or scripts. If the server ever needs to be recreated, it's reproducible in minutes. Your team can read, modify, and maintain the configuration without depending on us.
