Infrastructure Discipline

Platform Engineering & Infrastructure Ownership

Self-hosted Linux infrastructure, containerised environments, automated off-site backups, and strict security hardening for businesses owning their software stack.

Who It Suits

  • ✓Businesses migrating away from expensive per-seat PaaS or managed container providers.
  • ✓Teams wanting their internal databases and services running strictly inside their private cloud VPC.
  • ✓Agencies needing standardized, reproducible server deployments for client applications.

What We Build

  • ✓Linux VPS Hardening: SSH key authentication, UFW firewall, fail2ban, automated security updates.
  • ✓Docker & Compose Stacks: Lightweight, containerised microservices with health checks.
  • ✓Automated Backups: Nightly encrypted database snapshots dispatched to S3-compatible cold storage.
  • ✓Reverse Proxies & TLS: Caddy or Nginx with automatic Let's Encrypt certificate renewal.

How an Engagement Works

Platform engineering projects begin with a free Fit Call to review target hosting and workloads. We then either conduct a £400 / $500 Review or deliver a fixed-price scoped build with written deliverables and architecture diagrams.
