Physical and logical server build — racked, configured, hardened, backed up and documented before it carries a workload.
A server going into production needs more than an operating system. It needs a patch baseline, monitoring, a backup with a tested restore, and documentation of what it does and what depends on it.
We build to a standard so the tenth server matches the first. That consistency is what makes the estate maintainable — and it's exactly what's missing when servers get built ad hoc over years by different people.
Nothing goes live until the restore has been tested. A backup that has never been restored is a hypothesis.
Publishing exclusions is deliberate. Nobody in this market does it, and it's the fastest way to avoid a variation conversation later.
If yours isn't here, ask — we'd rather answer it before you buy than after.
Virtual in nearly all cases — better utilisation, easier backup, simpler recovery. Physical still wins for a few licensing situations and latency-sensitive workloads, and we'll say which applies.
Always, before go-live, and we document the result. It's the single most commonly skipped step and the one that matters most.
