01Overview

Service overview

Managed Cloud takes on the daily operational work of a cloud estate, grouped into ownership by service rather than by machine. Monitoring, incident response, patching, change, and security review are the work in scope, and each service carries its own target level and escalation path, so the response survives a change of personnel.

03What we deliver

Scope of delivery

01

Monitoring and incident response

Service metrics and alerts are organized, and every incident runs the same path from intake to recovery to post-incident report. Incidents at night or on a holiday are logged the same way, and the cause is available the next day.

02

Patch, change, and security operations

Security updates and configuration changes are gathered into scheduled windows, verified, then applied. The change history lives in one place, so tracing an incident starts from what changed and when.

03

SLO review and continuous improvement

Availability and latency targets are pinned to metrics users actually experience, and the team is paged only at the moment those targets are breached. Where the target was met and where it was missed becomes the basis for choosing and ranking the next improvements.

How the service works

Operations connected from observation to improvement

Respond using service indicators and alerts, then connect change records and incident reviews to improvements.

How the service works
  1. Observe service indicators

  2. Handle incidents and changes

  3. Review objectives and improve

04Why this way

Points of difference

Each point lists the deliverable that backs it.

Runbooks that carry through to automation

A procedure that lives in someone's head leaves when they do. The check order for each incident type, the commands that follow, and the escalation threshold are written as runbooks, and the repetitive checks are converted into scripts first. Because the document is the procedure, someone who joined this week handles their first shift the same way.

Alert design that cuts down overnight pages

Adding more alerts does not make things safer — it only makes alerts easier to tune out. A signal that cannot name the user impact, the screen to check, the first action, and the owner stays off the paging list; it is kept as a background metric, looked at only during an investigation. What does ring in the middle of the night is something that genuinely needs a response, so whoever is on call only has to confirm it, not judge it.

05How to start

From first call to kickoff

Every stage ends with an agreed scope and a deliverable in your hands.

Step 01

Baseline

We collect current cost, performance, configuration, and ownership per account and turn them into a baseline within three weeks of kickoff.

DeliverableBaseline assessment report

Step 02

Target architecture

We set the target structure around business criticality and regulatory constraints, then fix the transition order and rollback conditions with you.

Step 03

Transition and run

We cut over only after rehearsal, then move observability, cost, and incident response into a single operating model.

Step 04

Embed and improve

We review operating metrics with you once a month and agree the next quarter improvements in priority order.

Stone manufacturer, company S — cloud operations running past their sixth year

Since 2020 we have run the cloud infrastructure of Company S, a stone manufacturer, past its sixth year.

What we doThrough several changes of personnel on both sides, runbooks and regular service reviews kept monitoring and response to the same standard.

What it leavesOperational ownership continues without a gap, and turnover does not move service quality.

Live commerce, company B — the operating environment stood up alongside the build

A new service had to be built and its cloud operating environment stood up at the same time.

What we doThe environment went up first, on the development schedule, and the same team carried the deployment and operations paths after it.

What it leavesDevelopment and infrastructure moved on one schedule instead of waiting on each other.

North American food ordering platform, company W — delivery and operations aimed overseas

A service used in California, USA had to be operated from Korea.

What we doA CDN moved delivery closer to the user, and the operations aimed at overseas users stayed with us in Korea.

What it leavesThe service area is abroad, and delivery and operations still run from Korea.

09FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • We follow the notification matrix agreed in advance for each severity, and nights and holidays are received on the same basis. An incident with service impact reaches your named contact as soon as it is raised, progress is shared on a fixed interval, and a report with the cause and prevention items follows once it closes.

  • No. We start from workload requirements and choose the provider and services from there. Managed services do carry a switching cost, so we agree at design time how much of the stack stays on standard technology.

  • Yes. We take on operations in stages and move recurring work into runbooks and automation to reduce the headcount required. Night and holiday coverage is split by service criticality when the contract is agreed.

  • Most work is designed for zero or minimal downtime. Where downtime is unavoidable we agree the rehearsal, the rollback trigger, and the acceptable outage window first, then schedule the change at the lowest-traffic hour.

  • We compile the baseline report within three weeks of kickoff. Current cost, performance, configuration, and operational ownership are collected by account to inform the target architecture, transition sequence, and rollback conditions.

  • We review operational metrics, incidents, and improvement tasks monthly. Priorities for the following quarter are recorded in the operational dashboard and improvement backlog to inform the next investment decisions.

  • We share the findings from the first stage, then agree scope and schedule on that basis before delivery. A finished request for proposal is not required: the current environment and the outcome you want are enough to start.

Reliability & Observability

Why customers see no notification even when push sending succeeds

Diagnose missing push notifications by separating request acceptance, audience and queue, provider acceptance, device receipt, display and interaction. A server success does not establish device receipt or display; investigate from the last verified stage.
