What You Get

Everything That Keeps Servers Alive

Not a checklist of features — actual work done by engineers on a schedule, on-call for incidents.

OS Hardening & Security Baseline

CIS-benchmarked configuration, fail2ban, firewall rules, SSH hardening, and kernel parameter tuning.

Patch Management

Scheduled security and kernel updates. We test, stage, and apply patches — you don't touch it.

24/7 Monitoring & Alerting

CPU, RAM, disk, and network thresholds. Incident triage and escalation managed by operators who know production.

Backup Automation

Configured backup jobs with validation runs and documented recovery playbooks. Not just cron jobs — tested procedures.

Who Qualifies

We keep the bar honest — we can't manage what we can't access or what doesn't fit the service model.

Linux-based servers (Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, CentOS)

Minimum 1, no maximum server count

Works on SwarmRacks infrastructure or external VPS (AWS, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, etc.)

Root or sudo access must be grantable to our team

Server must be reachable over SSH (or we help configure that)

The Process

How Onboarding Works

Engineering Review

Our team reviews your application within 1–2 business days. We check fit, capacity, and whether your environment is compatible.

Approval & Onboarding

If approved, we send a service agreement with a flat monthly rate and begin onboarding. We get access, harden the environment, and take it from there.
