Infrastructure

Flexible, fast, and reliable cloud servers for your business

Installing software manually on a single server (as traditional system administrators often do) is a business risk. In the event of a sudden traffic spike during an ad campaign, the server will freeze. And if a hosting hard drive failure occurs, the project could be down for days with the risk of permanent database loss.

We build cloud infrastructure according to modern **DevOps** and **Infrastructure as Code (IaC)** standards. We isolate services in lightweight Docker containers, write automated deployment scripts (CI/CD pipelines), and configure load balancers (Nginx, HAProxy) to distribute traffic across multiple VPS.

With our architecture, you get instant deployment of updates without interrupting site operation (Zero-Downtime), automatic daily backups to external S3 storage, and infrastructure readiness to scale 2, 5, or 10 times in minutes.

  • Application Isolation and Containerization with Docker & Docker Compose
  • Automatic deployment with zero downtime (Zero-Downtime CI/CD pipelines)
  • Design and deployment of High Availability clusters
  • Inbound traffic balancing and auto-scaling
  • Setting Up Database and File Backups to Independent S3 Storage

Manage servers as code

We use Terraform and Ansible. This means that all server configuration is described in text files. If necessary, we can recreate the entire infrastructure from scratch with another provider in 15 minutes.

Our approach

Three principles of reliable DevOps

We do not perform settings manually — we automate and document the infrastructure.

Docker containerization

The application is packaged into Docker along with all its libraries, PHP/Node version, and settings. This guarantees that the project will work identically on a developer's laptop, a staging server, and a production server.

Situations like "it worked on my computer, but broke on the server" are excluded.

Automatic CI/CD

Forget about uploading files via FTP. We set up a pipeline (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI). The developer simply sends code to the repository: the system automatically performs linting, builds a Docker image, and deploys it to the server.

If the build fails at the testing stage, it will not reach the server, protecting users from errors.

Grafana monitoring and backups

We connect Prometheus and Grafana to track CPU load, RAM usage, free disk space, and network traffic. We set up alert notifications to a Telegram chat.

And database backups are encrypted and uploaded daily to an external S3 storage, protected against primary server failures.

Process

Cloud setup stages

Sequential process of audit, Docker packaging, CI/CD setup, and monitoring launch.

01

Infrastructure audit

We analyze the current project architecture, identify bottlenecks, and measure CPU and disk load. We study the technology stack in use.

02

Creating Dockerfile configurations

We write Dockerfiles for application containerization: backend, frontend, databases, task schedulers, and Redis. We link containers via docker-compose.

03

Writing CI/CD pipelines

We create build workflows in GitHub Actions/GitLab CI. We automate Docker image builds, running tests, and deployment to staging and production servers.

04

VPS and Load Balancer Setup

We rent cloud servers. We configure virtual private networks (VPC), deploy Nginx/HAProxy as a load balancer, and connect SSL.

05

Security and S3 backups

We close unnecessary ports with the UFW firewall. We set up access via SSH keys and disable passwords. We write scripts for backups to S3 cloud with rotation (30-day retention).

06

Grafana monitoring launch

We install Prometheus node-exporter on servers. We set up charts in Grafana and connect alerts in Telegram in case of low disk or memory.

Stack

Cloud Engineer Tools

We use advanced containerization, automation, and monitoring toolsets.

Docker & Compose / Kubernetes

The gold standard of containerization. Packages software into isolated portable environments. For complex systems, we design fault-tolerant Kubernetes clusters.

Terraform & Ansible

IaC Tools (Infrastructure as Code). Terraform describes the creation of servers and networks with the provider, while Ansible configures the OS, software, and access permissions on them.

Grafana & Prometheus

Monitoring and visualization suite. Prometheus polls servers every 15 seconds, collecting system loads, while Grafana builds convenient dashboards for support engineers.

Prices

Cloud Architecture Pricing

The price depends on the number of servers in the cluster, requirements for CI/CD, and database replication.

FAQ

FAQ about cloud architecture

Not sure what server power to choose and how many virtual machines to rent? Leave a request — our system engineers will perform load calculations for free.

  • What is the main advantage of Docker over a standard installation?

    With a standard setup, you install libraries (PHP, Node, MySQL) directly into the server's operating system. If two projects requiring different library versions run on the same server, a conflict will occur. Moreover, an OS update might 'break' the project. Docker isolates each application into a separate container with its own set of libraries. This guarantees portability (migrating to another VPS takes 5 minutes) and operational stability: environment settings are fixed once and for all.
  • Which cloud providers do you recommend for server rental?

    For Russian clients, we recommend Selectel or Yandex Cloud — they comply fully with Federal Law No. 152-FZ on personal data, ensure high ping speeds, and accept non-cash payments from Russian legal entities. For international projects, we design infrastructure based on Hetzner Cloud (best price/performance ratio in Europe), DigitalOcean, or AWS (Amazon Web Services) if complex cloud services and global CDN coverage are required.
  • What is Zero-Downtime deployment and how does it prevent website downtime?

    During standard deployment (uploading files via FTP or restarting the process), the website goes offline for a few seconds or minutes, showing users a 502 Bad Gateway error. With Zero-Downtime deployment (for example, using a Rolling Updates strategy), a new container with the updated code version is first built and launched in the background. The system performs an internal health check. If the test passes, the Nginx load balancer smoothly redirects traffic to the new container, while the old one is stopped. Users do not notice the version switch.
  • How often are backups created and where are they stored?

    We set up daily database backups and weekly static site file backups. Backups are never stored on the same physical disk as the site itself. We write scripts that encrypt archives with a password and send them to an external S3 object storage (for example, Yandex Object Storage or Selectel S3) in another data center. The backup retention period is configured for you (usually 30 days), after which old archives are automatically deleted to save disk space.
