Azure Managed Services

Azure Managed Services, by engineers who've operated it for years.

We cover what you run on Azure in two ways. We monitor your services and fix what breaks during the coverage window you choose. Or, for a fuller hand-off, we manage the Azure operations you choose, with monitoring and incident response included. The same team has managed customers' production environments at Server Surgeon since 2005.

Who it's for

For teams on Azure without a 24/7 ops team.

If you run real Azure infrastructure, VMs, Azure SQL, scale sets, a VNet, and you're the one who gets paged when it breaks, we take that off your hands, plus day-to-day Azure support.

Two services

Two ways we cover your Azure

We offer two services. Pick the one that fits, or ask us which.

Cloud Monitoring Service on Azure

We monitor your Azure environment and fix what breaks during the coverage window you choose: around the clock, after hours, business hours, or a custom schedule. When something breaks, a real engineer is engaged within 10 minutes, not just an auto-acknowledgement, and handles it within the guardrails you set. Priced to your environment.

Managed Cloud Services on Azure

You pick which parts of your Azure we manage: patching, backups and disaster recovery, scaling, security, networking, day-to-day administration. We manage them; you keep control of the limits. Custom-scoped and custom-quoted depending on your needs. It can include the monitoring and response above.

Azure services

What we can manage on Azure.

  • Virtual Machines and scale sets
  • Azure SQL and self-managed MySQL, MariaDB, and PostgreSQL
  • VNet, load balancers, Application Gateway, DNS, and CDN
  • Blob Storage, managed disks, Azure Backup, and disaster recovery
  • Security hardening and patching
  • Azure Monitor alerts, logs, and dashboards

A note on Windows servers: we support Microsoft Windows in a limited way. We monitor Windows VMs and respond with server reboots and service restarts, and that's where our Windows support ends. Our depth is Linux. If you need more, tell us what you run and we'll be straight about the fit.

How we work

You set the limits. We stay accountable.

You set the guardrails and escalation rules, the lines we don't cross. Our access to your systems is least-privilege and logged. The engineer working your issue is a real, named senior engineer who signs their name to every ticket and email, and you'll also have a named primary technical contact for your account.

Why us on Azure

A hands-on Azure managed service provider.

The same engineers have managed customers' production environments since 2005 at Server Surgeon, and Azure environments since the platform's early days, alongside AWS and every other major cloud provider.
