Run
Infrastructure and hosting
Your servers, held by people who administer them daily for other clients too.
Two situations come to us regularly. The first: three-euro shared hosting where the site falls over as soon as there is traffic and nobody answers the phone. The second, more serious: a server set up six years ago by someone who has left, never updated, whose password nobody knows and whose backups have never been restored. We take on both. A backup only exists if it has been restored at least once — otherwise it is a belief.
The method
How we work
- 01
We inventory what is actually running
Active services, versions, certificates and their expiry, where the data lives, who owns the domain name. That inventory is nearly always missing, and it is what will be missing on the day of the outage.
- 02
We isolate each application
Each in its own container, with its dependencies. An application needing an old version of a component stops preventing every other one from being updated.
- 03
We back up, then restore to check
Regular backups, off the server they protect, and a tested restore. It is the test, not the backup, that makes the difference on the day it counts.
- 04
We keep updates going over time
System security patches, language versions, certificates renewed automatically. An unpatched server has no problem — until it has a very large one.

Notre flotte
Since 2010Git, continuous integration, image registry, SSO, DNS, metrics, logs, monitoring: all of it runs on our own machines, on open-source components. Not out of principle — because it holds load better, costs a fraction, and does not stop when a vendor changes its mind.

- Does my data stay in France?
- Yes, on dedicated servers hosted in France. It is a strict requirement as soon as personal data is involved, and particularly health data — a field we work in.
- What happens if we part ways?
- You leave with your data, your domain name and the operational documentation. We support the handover to the next supplier. Keeping a client through the difficulty of leaving is not something we practise.
- Do you handle domain names and email too?
- Yes, and we insist the domain name stays registered in your name. On email, caution: a badly handled switch makes incoming mail disappear with no visible error. We never touch mail records at the same time as website records.

CI/CD and DevOps
Deploying should be a non-event, several times a week, with no meeting.
speedWeb performance
A slow site loses customers before it has introduced itself. That can be measured and fixed.
monitor_heartMonitoring and on-call
Knowing the site is down before your customer calls to tell you.
mark_email_readEmail and deliverability
Do your automated emails actually arrive? Usually, some of them do not.
