What started as the best way to run the software we wrote has turned into a comprehensive service.
Backups that are regularly tested, rollback plans written before changes are made, and documented procedures that a colleague can follow under pressure.
Disaster recovery is an engineering commitment, not a clause in a contract. We plan for the bad day and rehearse for it.
Patching, hardening, intrusion detection, encryption at rest and in transit, and certificate management. Security is a discipline we apply continuously, not a one-off audit.
Access controls follow least-privilege. Service credentials are rotated. Database users have only the permissions they need to do their job, nothing more.
We host and operate terabyte-sized databases in production. Replication, backups, index tuning, slow-query analysis, and server memory sizing are routine work.
Write-path design for high-volume continuous ingestion is documented in our research series on UDP data ingestion at scale.
Single-core virtual machines through to dedicated servers. We install, configure, and operate them on an ongoing basis: monitoring, alerting, on-call response, and documented procedures for when something goes wrong.
Where a project needs resilience, we design layered infrastructure with load balancing, mirrored databases, and geo-redundant disaster recovery.
Collecting continuous data streams from vessels, survey sites, and remote installations over satellite and intermittent networks. The engineering decisions behind a database ingestion pipeline in live use across marine and offshore deployments.
