03 / Architecture
How to choose the right server.
Server choice must reflect the quantity and type of applications to run and the number of connected users. For purchase we evaluate three characteristics: tipo di server, configuration hardware, software.
Tower server
Costo e ingombro pari a un desktop. Ideale in locali con poco spazio. Under 25 employees a single processor and 2-4 disks suffice; above, dual processor and 4-6 disks.
Rack server
For SMEs with multiple servers. Si impilano in armadi rack: infrastruttura ordinata, ottima ventilazione e densità di calcolo elevata in poco spazio.
Blade server
Il formato più compatto: alta capacità di elaborazione, minore consumo energetico, ingombro ridotto. Più blade in un chassis condividono alimentazione e connettività.
Server virtuale / VPS
Server condiviso a management autonoma. RAM, CPU e file system isolati: si comporta come dedicato. Linux o Windows, ideale per scalare velocemente.
04 / On-site & remote
Everything we do on your server.
A sysadmin intervenes at your site or teleassistenza secure and quickly solves any technical problem. We provide support contracts for dedicated servers and virtual servers (VPS), at the company or in housing, with tools like VPN, ZTNA, business TeamViewer and jump host. We design custom solutions with detailed analysis and site visits, automating every repetitive operation.

06 / FAQ
The answers that matter.
The domande più ricorrenti che ci pongono CIO, IT manager e titolari di PMI quando devono prendere una decisione strategica sull'infrastruttura server.
What are the main problems with an enterprise server?+
The criticità più ricorrenti sono: guasti hardware (dischi, alimentatori, RAM), saturazione delle risorse (CPU, RAM, storage), corruzione di array RAID, attacchi ransomware, configurazioni di Active Directory degradate, backup non testati che si rivelano inutilizzabili al momento del restore, patch management trascurato che apre vulnerabilità note.
Which server operating systems do you support today?+
Tutta la famiglia Microsoft Windows Server (2016, 2019, 2022, 2025) con Active Directory ed Entra ID, e i principali Enterprise Linux: Debian 12, Ubuntu Server 22.04 e 24.04 LTS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Rocky Linux e AlmaLinux. Manteniamo anche installazioni legacy per compatibilità applicativa.
Tower, rack, blade or virtual: how to choose?+
Tower per uffici up to 25 utenti e poco spazio. Rack per piccole-medie aziende con più macchine. Blade per data center ad alta densità con vincoli di consumo e spazio. Virtuale (VPS) quando serve scalabilità o management completamente isolata su infrastruttura condivisa.
Do you offer SLA contracts with guaranteed response times?+
Sì. Contratti modulari dal Next Business Day a coperture 24/7 con SLA su tempo di presa in carico e ripristino, sia in remote support che on-site. Before signing we define support timing and modalities and schedule plannable activities to minimize disruptions.
What is a 3-2-1-1-0 backup strategy?+
L'evoluzione del 3-2-1 classico: 3 copie dei dati, 2 supporti diversi, 1 copia off-site, 1 copia immutabile o air-gapped, 0 errori nei test di restore. È lo standard moderno contro ransomware e disastri.
What is Zero Trust applied to servers?+
Zero Trust significa non fidarsi mai per default, nemmeno della rete interna. On servers it's applied with MFA on all admin access, network microsegmentation, mandatory jump hosts, ZTNA replacing flat VPNs, EDR/XDR on every machine, and least-privilege principle.
Do you work remotely or only on-site?+
Entrambe. Per la maggior parte degli interventi usiamo accessi remoti secure — VPN site-to-site, ZTNA, jump host, TeamViewer business, VNC su tunnel cifrato — con autenticazione MFA e logging completo. Per installazioni hardware, RAID rebuild, sopralluoghi e cablaggi i sistemisti intervengono in sede.
Which Linux technologies do you work with?+
Webserver Apache, Nginx, LiteSpeed e cPanel; database MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL; file server Samba, FTP/FTPS, NFS; mailserver Postfix, Sendmail, Qmail con SpamAssassin e ClamAV; firewall nftables e iptables; virtualizzazione VMware, Proxmox VE, KVM, VirtualBox e vSphere.
Which Microsoft technologies do you work with?+
Windows Server 2016/2019/2022/2025, File Sharing e DFS, Active Directory e Domain Controller, Microsoft Entra ID, SQL Server dalla 2008 R2 alla 2022, Internet Information Server (IIS), Exchange on-premise ed Exchange Online, M365, Intune, Hyper-V e Failover Cluster.
