Managed infrastructure

SteadyStack

The platform we run our own products on, run for you.

SteadyStack is a managed platform for your applications, databases and data, hosted by us or run in your own cloud or data centre. We look after releases, change management, monitoring, scaling, security, backups and recovery, so your team can get on with building.

What’s in the stack

One managed platform, from your domain name to your backups.

Every layer your applications depend on, set up, run and looked after as one, with the same release process and the same people watching over all of it.

A closer look

Everything your applications need, looked after.

SteadyStack is the platform we built to develop, release, host and protect our own products, offered as a managed service. You bring the applications. We run everything underneath them, and keep it running.

Hosting

On our platform, or in your own.

Run on infrastructure we operate, with your data kept in the UK or EU. Or have us build and run the same platform inside your own cloud account or data centre. Either way, you get the same tooling, the same processes and the same people looking after it.

  • Hosted by us, under UK and EU GDPR
  • Or in your own cloud account, on your own contracts and billing
  • Or on your own hardware, in your own data centre
  • Move between them later without rebuilding your applications

Applications

Every part of your application, in its own container.

Websites, web apps, APIs, background workers and scheduled jobs each run in their own container, built the same way every time. What you tested is exactly what goes live, and one busy service never starves the others.

  • Each service packaged once, then promoted unchanged from testing to production
  • Separate development, staging and production environments
  • Rolling releases with health checks, so an update doesn’t mean downtime
  • Your domains, with certificates issued and renewed for you

Databases and storage

Your data, properly looked after.

Relational and document databases, caches, queues and file storage, sized for your workload, kept up to date and backed up on a schedule. Your data sits on the same platform as your applications, close by and private.

  • Managed relational and document databases
  • Caches and queues for busy applications
  • File and object storage for uploads, media and exports
  • Private to your applications, never open to the internet

Change management

Every change reviewed, tested and recorded.

Nothing reaches production by hand. Every change, whether it’s your code, a setting or the platform itself, is reviewed, tested automatically and given a version, and goes to a test environment first. Releasing to production is a deliberate step that someone approves, and every step is on record.

  • Automated tests before anything is built
  • Every release versioned, so you always know what’s running where
  • Production releases approved by people you choose
  • A full history of what changed, when, and who approved it
  • Roll back to the previous release in minutes

Monitoring and scaling

Watched around the clock. Ready for your busy days.

Your applications, your databases and the platform beneath them are monitored around the clock, with alerts when something needs attention. Services scale up as traffic grows and back down when it’s quiet, so you’re not paying for capacity you aren’t using.

  • Uptime checks from outside, and health checks from inside
  • Alerts for errors, slow responses, full disks and expiring certificates
  • Automatic scaling on demand, within limits you agree
  • Logs and metrics kept, so problems are traced rather than guessed at
  • Support hours and response times agreed in your contract

Security, secrets and DNS

Secrets kept secret. Access kept tight.

Passwords, keys and certificates are stored encrypted and handed only to the services that need them, never written into code or passed around in chat. Private services stay private, and your DNS and certificates are managed alongside everything else.

  • Encrypted secret storage, rotated when people or suppliers change
  • Encrypted connections everywhere, with certificates renewed automatically
  • DNS managed with your applications, changed through the same review
  • Private networking between services, with only what should be public exposed
  • Access by role, with a record of who did what

Backups and recovery

Backups you can actually restore.

Databases, files and settings are backed up automatically and kept away from the platform they protect. The platform itself is described in code, so it can be rebuilt from scratch, and recovering from a mistake or an outage is a routine job, not a crisis.

  • Scheduled backups of databases, files and settings
  • Copies kept off-site, separate from the live platform
  • Retention agreed to match your obligations
  • Restores tested, not just assumed to work

Migration

Moving in, without the upheaval.

If your applications live somewhere else today, moving them across can be part of setting up your platform. We review what you have, containerise what needs it, move your data and switch over with a plan, a rehearsal and a way back.

  • A review of your applications, data and current hosting
  • Existing applications containerised, usually without rewrites
  • Data moved and checked, with a rehearsal before the real thing
  • Switch-over planned around your quiet hours, with a way back
  • Your team shown the new way of working

Works with your AI assistant

Ask about your platform in plain English.

Like all of our flagship products, SteadyStack has a full MCP layer, so your team can check on releases, environments, alerts and backups from Claude, ChatGPT or the AI assistant they already use. It works with their own access, and anything that changes production still goes through the same approvals.

Your AI assistantMCP
  • Is the latest release live in production yet?
  • Why did the checkout service restart overnight?
  • Which certificates expire in the next 30 days?
  • When did the orders database last back up?
It can work with
  • Releases
  • Environments
  • Alerts
  • Scaling
  • Backups
  • DNS and certificates
Changes to production still need approval, whoever asks for them.
Included

Everything in the stack.

Every SteadyStack platform includes the lot. What changes from one customer to the next is the size, the shape and where it runs.

Containerised applications

Web apps, APIs, workers and scheduled jobs, each in its own container, scaled on its own.

Managed databases

Relational and document databases, caches and queues, kept up to date and backed up.

File and object storage

Storage for uploads, media, exports and anything else your applications keep.

Separate environments

Development, staging and production, kept consistent so there are no surprises on release day.

Release pipeline

Automated tests, versioned builds and approved releases, with a full history.

Automatic scaling

More capacity as traffic grows, and less when it’s quiet, within limits you set.

Monitoring and alerting

Applications, databases and the platform watched around the clock, with alerts that mean something.

Secret management

Passwords, keys and certificates encrypted, shared only with the services that need them, and rotated.

DNS and certificates

Your domains and certificates managed alongside your applications, renewed before they expire.

Backups and recovery

Automatic, off-site backups and tested restores, with the platform itself rebuildable from code.

Security updates

Operating systems, runtimes and the platform kept patched, through the same tested process as your releases.

Works with your AI assistant

A full MCP layer, so your team can ask about releases, alerts and backups from the AI assistant they already use.

How it works

From first conversation to running platform.

1. Tell us about your stack

What you run, where it runs today, the technology you use, your team and your users. The enquiry form below is a good start.

2. We review it with you

We look at your applications, data and ways of working, and what you need from availability, security and compliance.

3. A proposal and a price

A plan for your platform: where it runs, how it’s shaped, the support you need and what it costs. Migration can be part of it.

4. We build it and move you in

Your platform is set up, your applications and data are moved across with a rehearsal first, and your team is shown around.

5. We keep it running

Monitoring, updates, scaling, backups and security, looked after by us, while your team gets on with building.

Questions

Good to know.

Do we have to host with you?

No. We can run SteadyStack on our own infrastructure, inside your cloud account, or on your own hardware in your data centre. You get the same platform and the same service either way.

Where is our data kept?

On our platform, your data stays in the UK or EU, under UK and EU GDPR. If SteadyStack runs in your own cloud account or data centre, it stays wherever you choose.

Will our applications need rewriting?

Usually not. Most applications can be containerised as they are. If something needs to change, we’ll say so up front, in the proposal, before you commit to anything.

Is migration included?

It can be. Moving your existing applications and data across can be included as part of the contract to set up your platform.

Can our developers still release when they want to?

Yes. Your team keeps shipping. Releases go through automated tests and the approvals you choose, the same process we use for our own products, so releasing is routine rather than risky.

What support do we get?

Your platform is monitored around the clock, with alerts when something needs attention. Support hours and response times are agreed in your contract, to match how critical your applications are.

Is it the same platform you use?

Yes. SteadyStack is built from the same tooling and processes we use to develop, release, host and protect our own products.

How much does it cost?

It depends on your stack, where you want it to run, the technology you already have, your team’s skills and how many people use your applications. Tell us about them and we’ll put together a proposal and a price.

Enquire

Tell us about your stack.

The more you can tell us, the more useful our first conversation will be. Only your name and email are required; anything you’re not sure about, leave blank and we’ll talk it through.

We’ll get back to you to arrange a call, then put together a proposal for your platform: where it runs, how it’s shaped, the support you need and what it costs.
