At the heart of our service, we employ advanced Configuration Management Software to efficiently set up Debian Linux (Cloud) Servers that operate seamlessly on your hosting provider's platform.
Our service extends beyond mere infrastructure management. We are committed to equipping your development team with the knowledge and tools they need for maximum efficiency. Our experts are on hand to expand your system's capabilities with additional features or services, always ready to step in with rapid emergency support when necessary.
Choosing our hosting service means partnering with a team that values reliability, innovation, and customer satisfaction. We strive not only to meet your current needs but also to anticipate future challenges and opportunities, ensuring your infrastructure is not just maintained, but continually enhanced.
Our FOSS Configuration Management Solution simplifies the setup and ongoing maintenance of Debian Linux cloud instances for IaaS Cloud Providers, aiming to deliver a secure, streamlined, and easily manageable infrastructure to our clients.
The ansible-cake Command Line Interface equips your team with a user-friendly set of tools for standard DevSecOps activities and beyond, simplifying complex server operations. It turns routine tasks like creating new vhosts, managing developer access, and adding services into straightforward commands.
Our comprehensive Documentation thoroughly explains the Hosting Toolkit, guiding you through processes such as adding SSH keys for new employees, data recovery, or expanding your infrastructure with additional servers and services.

Every change to your servers is logged and reversible
Blunix CLI ansible-cake is very intuitive and well-documented
Designed for busy (web) applications and mass hosting
Continous Integration, Delivery & Deployment with Gitlab-CI
Private Networks, Firewall, SSH, TLS, IDS, automatic security upgrades, our workstations run Qubes OS.
We ensure your infrastructure stays free of vendor lock-in. Everything runs on your own IaaS provider account.
A dedicated consultant oversees your project for the entirety of your contract, ensuring direct communication whenever you reach out.
Under an hour, and generally immediately. We respond to monitoring alerts and emphasize building robust, fault-tolerant systems over responding to problems.
Our commitment ensures prompt action on critical alerts issued by you or our monitoring systems. This response time guarantee covers all your critical services across any number of servers in your infrastructure. While we often respond almost immediately, our structured response tiers are designed to meet various operational needs:
Response Time | Monthly Fee |
---|---|
Within 60 minutes | €700 |
Within 180 minutes | €500 |
Within six hours | €300 |
Next Business Day | Free of charge |
For each operational Debian Linux installation (including physical servers and virtual machines, excluding Docker), we charge €50 monthly, which encompasses 30 to 60 minutes of maintenance.
Extensive maintenance tasks such as upgrading to the next Debian Linux distribution release, or additional non-maintenance tasks, like adding new servers, or installing additional software and tools—are not covered under this fee and will be billed separately at our standard rate of €100 per hour.
For services necessitating a specified percentage of uptime each month, we adjust the cost based on the number of highly available Debian Linux installations. The adjustments are as follows:
Uptime Guarantee | Monthly Downtime | Cost Multiplier |
---|---|---|
99.99% | < 5 minutes | ×7 |
99.95% | < 16 minutes | ×4.5 |
99.90% | < 44 minutes | ×2 |
To qualify for guaranteed uptime, services must be configured for high availability, requiring a primary server and at least two failover servers.
Flexible Pricing: Recognizing the diversity of your needs, especially if managing a vast array of servers, we adapt our pricing. Servers performing identical functions with similar maintenance demands can qualify for bundled discounts, making our services even more cost-effective.
Empowering Your Team: Not all tasks require our direct intervention. We equip your developers through training to handle many operations independently, such as integrating new employees or creating vhosts. Our aim is to automate and simplify, reducing your need to incur additional costs.
Transparency in Uptime: Uptime guarantees often don't reflect the unpredictable nature of hosting. We recommend considering them only if needed for your contractual obligations. Our focus is on delivering rapid and effective solutions to challenges, ensuring your systems remain as dependable and operational as humanly possible.
Write us a short email describing your current infrastructure and join us in a jitsi online conference to discuss all following steps in detail.
We prepare a written proposal which contains all required steps layed out in detail, along with a (negotiable) pricing plan.
We set up the cloud instances and configure them using Blunix Stack as planned. After that we work with your developers to get your applications running.
We coordinate and perform the migration of interal tools, staging and production environments together with your developers.
We instruct your employees to do common tasks independently. Additional training for technically curious employees is welcomed at any time.
Blunix GmbH will perform any necessary maintenance tasks on your servers. We continously test and develop new hosting technologies.
