Managed hosting

Managed Hosting & Cloud

Your website and applications are revenue infrastructure. We run them on geo-distributed edge hosting, monitor them around the clock, and take responsibility for uptime so your team never has to chase a hosting provider again.

Migration without downtime

We audit your current environment, replicate it in staging, synchronise data, and cut over during a low-traffic window. DNS, certificates, mail routing and redirects are all handled so search rankings and enquiries are never interrupted.

Performance engineered at the edge

Static assets, images and cached pages are served from the closest edge location to your visitor, while dynamic workloads run on right-sized compute. Faster pages improve Core Web Vitals, which improves both conversion rates and organic visibility.

Backups, failover and recovery

Automated daily backups with point-in-time restore, off-site copies, and documented recovery objectives. We rehearse restores rather than assuming they work, so a failed update or a compromised plugin is a 20-minute inconvenience instead of a crisis.

Monitoring and accountable support

Uptime, certificate expiry, response time and error rates are monitored continuously. When something breaks, an engineer who already understands your environment responds — not a first-line queue reading from a script.

What you get

  • 99.99% uptime commitment
  • Zero-downtime migrations
  • Daily backups with tested restores
  • 24/7 monitoring and alerting

Managed hosting questions, answered

  • Can you migrate our existing hosting without downtime?

    Yes. We replicate your environment in staging, synchronise data, then cut over during a low-traffic window with DNS, certificates, mail routing and redirects prepared in advance. Most migrations are invisible to visitors.

  • Where is our data hosted?

    Australian workloads run in Australian regions by default, with edge caching worldwide for speed. If you need a specific jurisdiction for compliance, we will confirm the region in writing before migration.

  • What does the 99.99% uptime commitment cover?

    The platform we manage for you — compute, storage, network and certificates — monitored continuously with an engineer rostered to respond. Scheduled maintenance is agreed with you in advance.

  • Do you also manage our domains and DNS?

    Yes, through My Australian Domains and Wholesale Domains. Consolidating domains, DNS and hosting with one team removes the most common cause of outages: nobody knowing who holds the records.
