Your VPS. Our ops discipline.
We secure, patch, maintain infrastructure health, and respond to incidents, without touching your application or changing how you deploy.
We provision a fresh VPS, or take over your existing one (BYOV).
You set up the VPS. Now everything underneath is your problem.
- You're not sure when you last patched.
- You're not sure if backups actually restore.
- You're not sure what ports are open.
- You're not sure what happens if the disk fills up at 3am.
Your app works. Your infrastructure hygiene is a question mark.
What ProdVPS Ops means
ProdVPS Ops is for teams running production on a VPS who don't want to own infrastructure hygiene, security, or incident response, but do want to keep full control over their application and deploy process.
No migration. No rebuild. No lock-in.
Greenfield by default. BYOV available. You keep your workflow.
1. We provision a hardened VPS
Fresh server. Baseline security. No inherited risk.
2. You deploy your app your way
Your workflow. Your stack. We don't touch it.
3. We operate the infrastructure
Patching, backups, infrastructure health, incident response. You get receipts.
Have an existing VPS?
We can take it over after a baseline audit. A one-time $150 audit + hardening fee applies to bring your server to baseline before ongoing ops begins.
Hard boundaries: What we own / What we do NOT touch
You own
- →Application code
- →Deploy workflow
- →Framework updates
- →Application errors (exceptions, 500s, logic bugs)
- →Application performance (queries, caching, code)
We own
- ✓OS hardening (firewall, SSH, baseline security)
- ✓Patch management (OS + critical packages)
- ✓Backup configuration + restore verification
- ✓Infrastructure health (CPU, memory, disk, network, services)
- ✓Infra-level incident response
- ✓Monthly ops artifacts
What we do NOT do
If the issue is inside your application, it remains yours. If the issue is infrastructure, it's ours.
We do NOT:
- Modify application code
- Debug application errors
- Change deploy workflows
- Tune queries or performance
- Manage frameworks or dependencies
- Decide how your app is built
This boundary is non-negotiable. It's how we keep the service focused and reliable.
Outcomes, not tools.
Infrastructure hygiene without changing how you work.
Hardened infrastructure
Firewall, SSH lockdown, security baseline. Done correctly from day one.
Patching handled safely
Security updates applied during maintenance windows. Reboots coordinated when required. No surprises.
Working backups
Backup verification + restore testing. You know they work before you need them.
Infrastructure health
Disk, memory, CPU, services. Infrastructure health maintained without dashboards.
Incident handling (infra)
We triage incidents and fix infrastructure failures. If root cause is application logic, we'll tell you clearly with evidence and stay on the infra side.
Monthly receipts
Artifacts showing what was patched, backed up, and verified. No noise.
You get artifacts showing what happened
No dashboards to check. No graphs to interpret. Just simple receipts confirming the work was done.

Direct escalation path
Ops covers infrastructure only. Application behavior and deploy workflows remain yours.
Fresh install (Greenfield) is default. Existing VPS takeover available with one-time $150 audit + hardening fee.
Good fit / Not a fit
Good fit if:
- Any stack (we don't touch your app)
- Happy with your deploy process
- Want infra safety without platform lock-in
- Don't want to own patching and hardening
- Need backups verified, not just running
- Have an existing VPS you want hardened and operated
Not a fit if:
- You want us to fix app-level bugs
- You want managed deploys (see Runtime)
- Kubernetes or container orchestration
- Hobby projects
- You need to learn infra for your career
Want to transfer deploy ownership too?
Many customers start with Ops and later decide they don't want to own deploys either.
That's when ProdVPS Runtime makes sense.
If you'd prefer to fully transfer runtime ownership, ProdVPS Runtime is available.
Enterprise ops background. Focused execution.
ProdVPS is intentionally run as a focused service with direct operator ownership. No handoffs. No ticket queues. No escalation ladders.
I've been paged at 2am for systems that couldn't go down. I've written the postmortems. I've fixed the things that weren't supposed to break.
The person selling you this service is the person who handles incidents and wakes up when things break.
