Infrastructure

Infrastructure that passes the audit.

Virtualisation, storage, networking, identity and backups, planned and handed over with the discipline of Swiss banking.

Sound familiar?

  • The VMware bill has multiplied.

  • Access runs over open RDP ports and shared passwords.

  • A restore has never been rehearsed.

  • Nobody knows what each VM does.

Infrastructure

What we do

Virtualisation, storage, networking, identity, backups.

  • Fixed scope

    VMware exit

    Your VMware estate moved to Proxmox with ZFS, backups and monitoring. Planned cutover, tested restores, documentation your team can run with.

  • 2 weeks

    Zero-trust access for small teams

    WireGuard, single sign-on with OIDC, a reverse proxy with proper TLS and MFA. No more open RDP ports, and a setup HQ security teams recognise.

  • Scoped

    Backup, recovery and observability

    ZFS replication, offsite copies, Prometheus and Grafana, and a restore that has actually been tested.
