Common questions about Server Management and Monitoring.
Can you manage servers we already own?
Yes. We start with a discovery and documentation pass, then onboard each server to monitoring, patching, and backup. There is no requirement to buy new hardware to get managed.
Do you support both Windows and Linux?
Yes. We manage Windows Server, AD, ADFS, file and print, IIS, SQL Server, and the common Linux distributions including Ubuntu, Debian, RHEL, and Rocky.
How do you handle patching without breaking apps?
We test patches in a representative environment, schedule rollouts in defined maintenance windows, and snapshot or back up before applying. If a patch causes a regression, we roll back and document a workaround.
What about hypervisors like Hyper-V or VMware?
We manage both. Cluster health, replication, snapshot hygiene, and host firmware are part of the monthly review. Workload right sizing happens quarterly.
Can you migrate us off old hardware?
Yes. We routinely migrate aging Windows Server installs to either new on prem hosts, Hyper-V or VMware clusters, or Azure VMs. The migration plan includes timelines, costs, and a rollback path.
