In today's digital world, reliable and powerful server solutions are essential for a company's success. Individual managed servers are becoming an increasingly popular choice for many businesses. As an independent service provider, we support you in designing your IT infrastructure autonomously.
In this article, you'll learn what individual managed servers are, what benefits they offer, and why they could be the optimal choice for your business.
Individual managed cloud servers are specially adapted server solutions that are managed by us as service providers on your behalf. As a provider-neutral partner, we enable maximum flexibility in choosing your cloud provider - whether in German data centers or with international providers.
Unlike standard managed servers, which often meet general requirements, individual managed servers are tailored to the specific needs and requirements of your company, and we can make individual adjustments and are more flexible in operating various applications.
One of the biggest advantages of individual managed servers is flexibility. You can adapt the server infrastructure exactly to your needs, whether through special hardware configurations, customized software solutions, or specific security requirements. This flexibility allows you to react quickly to changes in the market and optimally support your business.
For all adjustments, we work hands-on with you, and at the same time, you benefit from our already existing high degree of automation for common applications and infrastructures.
Through individual customization and management of the servers, special security measures can be implemented that are precisely tailored to your company's needs. Especially for GDPR-compliant setups, we offer specialized solutions with hosting in German data centers. This significantly reduces the risk of security breaches and data loss.
Individual managed servers offer the possibility to configure hardware and software to deliver the best possible performance for your specific applications and workloads. This leads to higher efficiency and better user experiences.
In addition, we typically use cloud servers - which can be scaled to new hardware types with additional resources within 5 minutes.
With individual managed servers, you can flexibly adjust your server resources to meet growing requirements. This is particularly important for companies operating in rapidly growing or fluctuating markets.
In the cloud, scalable systems are typically built with load balancers or database clusters. We rely on proven technologies, such as Percona-XtraDB-Cluster for MySQL systems, Elasticsearch with multiple nodes, or we configure individual clusters as needed.
Another major advantage is the 24/7 technical support that many managed server providers offer. This ensures that help is provided quickly and efficiently for technical problems to minimize downtime.
We work hands-on with our customers through GitLab and Slack. Of course, we are also available by phone for our 24/7 customers.
A significant advantage of our approach is maintaining your digital sovereignty. You retain full control over your data and infrastructure while we handle the technical management. The contracts with cloud providers remain directly with you - we act exclusively as a management partner.
Whenever you can't proceed with a classic managed server from your hosting provider.
Individual managed servers are particularly suitable for companies that have special requirements that cannot be covered by standard solutions. These include:
Companies that use special software or applications
Businesses that want individual and personal support
Growing companies that need flexible and scalable solutions
Companies that need reliable and fast technical support
Businesses with high security requirements
The costs for an individual managed server can vary greatly depending on the specific requirements of your company.
We work together with common cloud providers and only charge our management fee on top - that is, the cloud server you've booked is billed directly to you - our management fee is charged separately per server.
The setup can take from a few hours to several days depending on the complexity and specific requirements. However, we always strive to make the process as fast and efficient as possible.
The more information we receive in advance, the faster we can deliver.
Of course, we offer migration services to safely and smoothly transfer your data and applications to the new server.
Possible security measures include firewall configurations, VPNs, zero trust setups, regular backups, SSL certificates, DDoS protection, and special access controls. We'll be happy to advise you on which measures make the most sense for your company.
We support you in implementing all necessary technical and organizational measures for GDPR-compliant hosting. These include:
Hosting in certified German data centers
Encrypted data transmission and storage
Documented backup and recovery processes
Access controls and audit logging
Support in creating data processing agreements
Yes, small businesses in particular can benefit from the advantages of individual managed servers, especially if they have specific requirements or growth plans that are not adequately covered by standard solutions.
Individual managed cloud servers offer a flexible, secure, and powerful solution for businesses of all sizes. By adapting to specific requirements, they can make a decisive contribution to your company's success.
If you're looking for a customized server solution, it's advisable to compare different providers and get detailed advice.
