Hosting & infrastructure for government
U.S.-based, hardened hosting with the monitoring, backup, and uptime guarantees public-sector workloads require.
The Promise
Stays online. Stays secure. Stays patched.
SLA
Uptime commitment in every contract
On call
Incident response
Daily
Encrypted backups
U.S.
Data residency
What’s included
A complete, managed environment
Hardened cloud infrastructure
Built on U.S. cloud regions with private networking and encryption at rest and in transit.
Monitoring & alerting
Synthetic uptime checks, error-rate tracking, and on-call rotation. We see issues before residents do.
Automated patching
OS, runtime, and dependency security patches applied on a defined cadence with rollback safety.
Daily encrypted backups
Off-site, encrypted backups with point-in-time recovery and tested restore procedures.
DDoS & WAF protection
Web application firewall and DDoS mitigation in front of every public endpoint.
Audit-ready logging
Centralized logs retained per your records-management policy, available for FOIA or audit requests.
Who it’s for
Agencies that would rather not run servers
This fits an agency whose website runs on an aging server down the hall, on a shared host with no real support, or on infrastructure the original vendor no longer maintains. It also fits IT teams who would rather spend their time on internal systems. Towns, counties and state programs get the same managed setup, sized to the traffic you expect.
The problems we see are plain. No one knows when the server was last patched. Backups exist, but no one has tried a restore. The site slows down during a storm or an election night, just when residents need it most. An audit request turns into a hunt for logs.
What your agency provides
- Access to your domain registrar and DNS
- Your security and records-retention policies
- Any data-residency or logging rules your state sets
- A contact for incident notices
- An agreed change window for the cutover
The process
How a hosting move runs
-
1
Discovery and scoping
We review your current hosting, traffic, domains and security rules. You get a written migration plan.
-
2
Design and architecture
We design the environment, including networking, backups, logging and monitoring, to match your policies.
-
3
Build and iterate
We build the environment and run your site on it in staging so your team can test.
-
4
Test, train and launch
We test a restore from backup, agree a cutover window with you and switch DNS using a runbook.
-
5
Hypercare and transition
We watch the new environment closely after cutover, then move it into routine monitoring and patching.
Your current site stays live until cutover day. These are the same phases we use on every project. The full plan is on our implementation page.

How it fits with our other services
- A website redesign is a natural time to move hosting, since the site is changing anyway.
- A maintenance contract covers the application: code updates, accessibility checks and editor help.
- Portals and integrations run in the same environment, with the same monitoring and backups.
- When hosting is one piece of a bigger change, our implementation services run the move inside one fixed-fee project.
Every service is listed on our capabilities statement. For a hosting quote, tell us about your current setup on our contact page.
