Review the environment before changing it.

Include the server versions, roles and current priorities in your inquiry. Access, change approvals and recovery responsibilities are agreed during onboarding.

Your service agreement

Know who handles what.

Your server environment connects systems, applications, users and data. Your proposal identifies which responsibilities SDH accepts and which remain with your team.

Environments covered
SDH assesses compatibility before starting work. The proposal names each server or website covered by the service. If the environment is unsupported, SDH refunds the payment.
Included work
The accepted task list defines maintenance, monitoring, updates and incident work. SDH provides reports covering issues, updates and completed tasks. You review the work and confirm completion. SDH handles customer communication, prepares and approves quotations, coordinates escalation, and provides a handover when management ends. You approve changes to your environment before SDH proceeds.
Exclusions
Application development, redesigns, licences, infrastructure and projects outside the agreed scope are separate unless expressly included.
Agreed management coverage
Your selected package and accepted proposal define the covered systems, tasks, staffing, hours and escalation responsibilities. Additional time or wider coverage requires your approval and is invoiced separately; a checkout approval or spending limit does not increase the purchased scope.
Monitoring and corrective action
The selected package and accepted scope identify the checks, schedule, escalation contacts and any investigation or corrective work. SDH obtains your permission before making changes.
Response and emergency coverage
SDH support is available 24/7, with an initial response within 1 hour. Emergencies receive immediate attention. Resolution time depends on the issue's complexity. SDH handles customer communication and escalation.
Access and change approval
SDH obtains your permission before making any changes. Share administrative access only through the agreed secure process, and identify the person who can approve work. Keep credentials out of the initial inquiry. Revoke access or rotate passwords and keys when the work ends or access is no longer needed.
Additional time and coverage
SDH agrees additional work and charges with you before proceeding. Each hourly checkout covers one approved hour; additional approved time is invoiced separately.
Refunds and handover
SDH assesses your environment before starting work. If the environment is unsupported, SDH refunds the payment. SDH Server Management also includes a 30 day, no questions asked refund policy. When management ends, SDH provides a handover of the completed work and relevant information.

Before we begin

Clear answers for
your next step.

Use these answers to prepare your inquiry. Your written proposal and agreement define the accepted work.

A useful first inquiry is simple.

Describe the environment, the issue or goal, and the person who can approve decisions. Secure access follows the agreed onboarding process.

Ask About Your Setup
Can this cover a managed Kubernetes service?

EKS, AKS and GKE projects can be reviewed alongside clusters you operate directly. Include the cluster version, cloud platform, node pools and application requirements so SDH can confirm compatibility.

Can an application move to Kubernetes as part of the work?

The engagement can assess container images, configuration, storage and dependencies. Migration, testing, rollback and operating responsibilities must be agreed before changing the workload.

How is an hourly engagement arranged?

Each checkout purchases one approved engineer hour for the selected task. Share your setup and expected result so SDH can agree the work and reporting arrangement. An approval or spending limit does not purchase additional hours. Additional time requires agreement and is invoiced separately.

How do we share access and approve work?

SDH obtains your permission before making any changes. Share administrative access only through the agreed secure process, and identify the person who can approve work. Keep credentials out of the initial inquiry. Revoke access or rotate passwords and keys when the work ends or access is no longer needed.
