Managed cloud hosting for websites and applications, with monitoring, backups, security updates and support handled for you.

## What it is
Managed hosting means someone else takes care of the servers your website or application runs on. That includes updates, security patches, backups, monitoring and responding when something goes wrong.

For many businesses this is the sensible middle path between cheap shared hosting and building an in-house operations team. You get a reliable environment and a named point of contact.

## What is included
- **Environment setup**: Servers configured for your application and traffic.
- **Security updates**: Regular patching of the operating system and software.
- **Backups**: Scheduled backups with restore checks.
- **Monitoring and alerts**: Uptime and performance checks with a response process.
- **SSL and domains**: Certificates and DNS managed and renewed.
- **Support**: A contact for incidents and change requests.

## Outcomes
- **Less to worry about**: Routine server work is handled for you.
- **Fewer outages**: Monitoring catches problems early.
- **Predictable costs**: A clear plan rather than surprise repairs.

## Good fit if
- Your site is slow or goes down.
- You have no one to look after servers.
- You want backups and security handled properly.

## FAQ
**Do we keep access to our own server?**
Yes, subject to the arrangement agreed, and you keep ownership of your data and domains.

**What happens if the site goes down?**
Alerts notify the support team, who investigate and restore service according to the agreed support terms.

**Can you host existing sites?**
Yes. Existing sites can be moved and tuned for the new environment.
