Fully managed · senior US engineers

Your servers, kept healthy and online — so you don't have to think about them.

We take on the whole job of running your servers: provisioning, patching, security hardening, round-the-clock monitoring, backups you can actually restore, and a real engineer on the other end when something breaks. You get infrastructure that just stays up — without hiring an ops team to keep it there.

What we handle

Everything it takes to keep a server running

One team owns the full lifecycle — from the first provision to the 2am incident — so nothing falls through the cracks between "who set this up" and "who's watching it now."

Installation & provisioning

New servers built to a repeatable, documented standard — OS, users, packages, services and networking configured as code, not clicked together by hand. We work primarily on Ubuntu.

OS patching & updates

Security and package updates applied on a schedule, with unattended-upgrades where it's safe and hands-on testing where it isn't. Kernel and reboot windows planned, not skipped.

Security hardening

Key-only SSH, host firewalls, fail2ban, least-privilege users and sensible defaults applied from day one — then kept in place. See our security hardening service.

24/7 monitoring & alerting

HTTP, SSL, disk, memory and service checks running continuously, with alerts routed to a person — not a dashboard nobody watches. Powered by our uptime monitoring.

Backups & recovery

Scheduled, offsite backups with restores that get tested — because a backup you've never restored is a guess. Documented recovery steps so a rebuild is routine, not a scramble.

Incident response

When something breaks, a senior engineer investigates, fixes the root cause and writes up what happened — so the same failure doesn't come back next month.

Why DropinAdmin

A real ops team, without the headcount

You get the same senior engineers who provision your servers watching them and fixing them — one team, one context, no handoffs between "build" and "run."

Senior engineers, not a triage tier

The person who answers when your server is down is a senior US engineer who knows your setup — not a first-line agent reading a script and escalating. Fewer people, more context.

Everything documented and as code

Provisioning, configuration and runbooks are version-controlled and handed over. No tribal knowledge locked in one head — if you ever leave, you take a working, documented system with you.

Quiet by design

The goal isn't a busy dashboard — it's silence. We harden, patch and monitor so that most weeks you hear nothing from us, and the weeks you do, it's already handled.

The whole stack, one owner

Servers don't exist in isolation. The team managing them also handles your databases, deploys and monitoring — so nothing sits in the gap between vendors when it matters.

Get started

Hand your servers to a team that keeps them boring.

Tell us what you're running and we'll scope what managing it properly looks like — provisioning, patching, hardening, monitoring, backups and someone on call. No sales pitch, just a technical conversation.
