Server installation and operations

Put a Linux server into service with a documented configuration and a clear plan for routine operation.

Based in Frankfurt. Projects can be scoped across Germany; remote or on-site delivery depends on the mandate.

The task

A new or moved server can go live without agreed access, backup checks, monitoring or an owner for later changes.

Server types

Gateflow focuses on Linux servers. Depending on the project, this can include:

  • File servers for shared files and access rights.
  • Application servers for business applications and APIs.
  • Search servers, including Elasticsearch and systems with near real-time index updates.

Connections to other systems and responsibility for their operation are scoped for each project.

Blockchain node installation and operations

Gateflow operates its own blockchain nodes. A client installation would define the network, node role, access, monitoring and ongoing operating responsibilities before work begins.

What Gateflow delivers

  • An installation plan covering access, configuration and the change window.
  • Recorded checks for connectivity, backups and monitoring.
  • Operating instructions and a handover to the named owner.

Delivery and acceptance

Gateflow agrees the hardware or hosting environment, access and change window before installation. Ongoing operations have a separate scope with named responsibilities and response times.

Where this fits

For companies adding or replacing servers in an office, data center or hosted environment.
