Services
Cloud Infrastructure & Hosting.
Cloud deployment, server configuration, managed hosting and infrastructure management for Q1-built systems and client applications requiring a reliable, maintained environment.
Engagement scope
Cloud infrastructure and hosting covers the provisioning, configuration and ongoing management of the infrastructure on which applications run. Q1 provides managed cloud hosting for systems it builds and for client applications that require a reliable, maintained environment without a dedicated internal infrastructure team.
Typical activities
- Cloud environment provisioning and configuration
- Server setup, hardening and security configuration
- Database installation and management
- SSL certificate management and HTTPS enforcement
- Backup configuration and periodic restoration testing
- Monitoring and alerting setup
- Performance tuning and resource optimisation
- DNS and domain management
Deliverables
Quality, security and handover
Q1-managed hosting environments are configured with security headers, firewall rules, intrusion detection and automated backup. Access is controlled and logged. Security patches are applied on a scheduled basis. Clients receive notification before planned maintenance windows. Incident response procedures are defined and documented before go-live.
Business outcomes
Reliable availability
Systems are hosted in maintained environments with appropriate redundancy and monitoring.
Maintained security
Security patches and configuration updates are applied systematically rather than reactively.
Cost efficiency
Cloud resources are sized to actual requirements and reviewed periodically to avoid over-provisioning.
