Cloud & infrastructure
The office server is getting old, data must be stored safely and applications must run reliably. We plan and build your infrastructure in the Microsoft cloud or as a hybrid solution, with clear permissions, backup and cost control, in Swiss data centres if you wish.
Challenges
Typical situations from daily work and how we approach them.
How we solve it
We review what runs on it and find the right place for each part: files to cloud storage, applications to virtual servers, the obsolete retired. The migration is planned, with a test run and a way back.
How we solve it
We back up servers and data automatically to a second location and practise the restore. You know how quickly, and to which point, you can recover.
How we solve it
Microsoft runs data centres in Switzerland. We plan which services are available there, how data is stored and backed up and how access is protected, and we record the decisions.
More on this in our blogHow we solve it
We analyse resources, utilisation and pricing tiers, remove what is unused and size the rest to fit. Budgets and alerts make deviations visible early.
AI IN THIS SERVICE
If you want your own AI solutions, you need a secure foundation: we run AI services in your cloud environment, with data in Switzerland where available, protected access and monitored costs.
More on AI & automationOfferings
Each offering can be booked on its own or combined with others. We agree the exact scope together.
An organised starting point in the cloud, with clear ownership, security and cost control.
Existing servers and line-of-business applications move to the cloud in a planned way.
What has to stay in the office stays there, and is still monitored, updated and protected centrally.
A complete Windows desktop in the browser, for line-of-business applications, staff on the move or external specialists.
Where ordinary cloud storage is not the right fit, for large files or older programs for example, a file server in the cloud replaces the one in the office.
If a server fails or data is encrypted, it is clear how quickly, and to which point, you can recover.
Databases and business applications run as a managed service, with backups and updates.
Office, staff and cloud are securely connected, and nothing is needlessly reachable from the internet.
The right platform for each application, from a website to a business application with a database.
Understand what you pay for, and pay only for what you need.
An example project
File storage moves to the cloud and the line-of-business application to a virtual server in a Swiss data centre, with backup and monitoring. Budgets alert you when costs drift from the plan.
Microsoft runs data centres in Switzerland, and many services can run there. Some services or features are not available everywhere; we check this for each service and record it.
Not for everything. For files and collaboration, storage in Microsoft 365 is often enough; servers in the cloud pay off for line-of-business applications, databases or AI. We work out the running costs beforehand.
We agree that before the project starts: your team, your existing IT partner or us. Documentation makes sure the environment does not depend on a single person.
We clarify existing systems, security and data protection requirements, the budget and who is responsible for operations. A new environment, a migration and an optimisation each need a different scope.
