Our Infrastructure

Infrastructure built to stay up — and stay watched

We run our own KVM virtualization hosts, with RAID-1 NVMe redundancy, routed public IPs, daily off-site backups and monitoring that never sleeps. The clever part isn’t any one feature — it’s that real engineers stand behind all of it.

No mystery clouds, no reseller chains — hardware we own and understand.

Our own hardware

We run the machines ourselves

A lot of “hosting” is really reselling — a logo on top of someone else’s cloud, three companies deep, with no one who can actually walk over to the machine. We took the other road. We own and run our own KVM virtualization hosts, so when something needs attention, the people fixing it are the people who built it.

  • Our own KVM virtualization hosts — not rented reseller space
  • RAID-1 NVMe mirroring, so a dead disk never means downtime
  • A routed public IP dedicated to your VPS
  • Resources allocated honestly, never oversold

Redundancy at every layer

The unglamorous engineering that means a bad day for a disk isn’t a bad day for you.

RAID-1 NVMe on every host

Your data lives on mirrored NVMe drives, so a single disk failure is a non-event — the mirror keeps serving while we swap the hardware, no downtime, no drama.

Daily off-site backups

Every site and database is backed up off-site each day, kept apart from the machine it came from — so even a whole-host loss is a restore, not a catastrophe.

Hardware we don’t oversell

Because we own and run the KVM hosts ourselves, we know exactly what’s on them. Resources are allocated honestly, not crammed in until the box groans.

Network, security & the well-kept stack

Fast, private, hardened and patched — the defaults we’d want for our own sites.

A routed public IP per VPS

Every VPS gets its own routed public IP — clean reputation, no noisy neighbours dragging you down, and full control over what runs on it.

24/7 monitoring

We watch uptime, load, disk and services around the clock. When something drifts, we usually know — and act — before you’d ever notice.

Let’s Encrypt SSL everywhere

Free, auto-renewing SSL on every site we host. Encryption isn’t an upsell here — it’s simply on, and it stays on, without you thinking about it.

Hardened by default

Firewalls, intrusion prevention and brute-force detection run on every server, tuned and kept current so the internet’s background noise stays outside.

Isolated per-site accounts

Sites are kept in their own isolated accounts, so one project can’t reach into another. Tidy boundaries make for a calmer, safer server.

A managed, patched stack

Multi-version PHP-FPM, MariaDB and nginx, all managed and patched by us — a modern, well-kept foundation instead of software quietly rotting.

The human side

Real engineers, awake when it matters

Monitoring only matters if a person acts on it. When an alert fires at 3am, it doesn’t land in a queue on another continent — it reaches the engineers who run this infrastructure and know exactly how it fits together. That’s the difference between a status page and a partner.

  • People who know the hardware, not a first-line script
  • Incident response by the team that runs the servers
  • Proactive fixes — often before you’ve noticed a thing
  • Plain-English updates when something does need saying

Want the technical details?

Ask us anything about how we run things — redundancy, backups, IPs, the stack. We’ll give you a straight, jargon-free answer, and we won’t pretend to run data centres we don’t.
