DevOps and server infrastructure
Fault-tolerant infrastructure from scratch or optimization of an existing setup. CI/CD pipelines, containerization, 24/7 monitoring, automated backups, DDoS protection, SSL, load testing. SLA up to 99.9% uptime, fast deployment, zero-downtime releases.
Start a projectWhen you need DevOps
You need DevOps when your product has outgrown "deploy it to the server and it works." Typical situations:
- Manual deploys break production — you need reliable CI/CD with rollback, staging, automated tests
- The server crashes and nobody knows — you need monitoring with Telegram alerts and a Grafana dashboard
- Load is growing — you need horizontal scaling, balancing, autoscaling
- "We have backups, probably" — you need automated backups with restore verification
- DDoS attacks — you need protection via Cloudflare, WAF, rate limiting
- Environments drift — you need Docker so dev = staging = prod
- The team is growing — you need collaboration tooling: GitLab/GitHub, code review, CI, IaC
What we set up
CI/CD pipeline
GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or Jenkins. Auto-build, tests, linters, Docker image build, deploy to staging and production.
Containerization
Docker images for every component, docker-compose for local dev, Kubernetes or Docker Swarm for production.
24/7 monitoring
Prometheus + Grafana + Alertmanager. CPU/RAM/Disk/Network metrics, business metrics, uptime checks. Telegram alerts.
Logging
ELK stack (Elasticsearch + Logstash + Kibana) or Grafana Loki. Centralized logs with search and alerts.
Load balancing
nginx / HAProxy / Traefik. Round-robin, least-connections, sticky sessions, SSL termination, HTTP/2, HTTP/3.
SSL / HTTPS
Let's Encrypt with auto-renewal via certbot. TLS 1.3, HSTS, OCSP stapling, modern cipher suites.
Backups
Automated incremental backups of DB, files, configs. Storage in S3-compatible cloud. Regular restore tests.
DDoS protection
Cloudflare (Free/Pro), fail2ban, nginx rate limiting, WAF rules. L3/L4/L7 attack protection.

Timelines and pricing
DevOps project ranges by infrastructure complexity.
24/7 support as a separate monthly retainer:
- Basic SLA 99.5% (4-hour response, business hours) — $500 – $1,500/month (₽50K – ₽150K)
- Standard SLA 99.9% (1-hour response, 24/7 on-call) — $1,500 – $3,500/month (₽150K – ₽350K)
- Enterprise SLA 99.99% (15-minute response, dedicated team) — from $5,000/month (₽500K)
What drives cost
- Infrastructure size — 1 server or a cluster of dozens: linear setup cost scaling
- Application complexity — monolith vs. microservices with queues and service mesh
- Uptime requirements — 99% (simple single-node) vs. 99.99% (multi-region HA cluster)
- Kubernetes — requires expert-level work and costs more than Docker Swarm / compose
- Monitoring and alerting — basic (uptime checks) vs. full (metrics, logs, traces, business KPIs)
- CI/CD — simple script vs. full pipeline with tests, linters, security scanner, staging
- IaC (Infrastructure as Code) — manual setup vs. Terraform/Ansible with full GitOps
- Security — basic hardening vs. compliance (GDPR, PCI DSS, ISO 27001)
- DRP / Disaster Recovery — simple backups vs. full recovery plan with RTO/RPO
- Team training — knowledge transfer, documentation, runbooks, workshops
What the client gets
- Zero-downtime deploys — releases don't take production down
- Automated rollbacks — if something goes wrong, the system rolls back itself
- Backup restoration in under 30 minutes in any scenario
- Transparency — Grafana dashboard where you can see everything at once
- Security — regular OS and dependency updates, vulnerability scanning
- Documentation — runbooks with instructions for your team or on-call engineers
