IT Infrastructure & Hosting

Infrastructure designed for service continuity

A library catalogue, repository, journal platform, or institutional website is only useful when people can reach it and administrators can recover it. Sothik IT plans and operates infrastructure for Drupal, Koha, DSpace, OJS, databases, search services, mail, and the supporting web stack.

We treat hosting as an operational responsibility: capacity, security, monitoring, backup, restoration, maintenance, and escalation must work together.

What the engagement can include

• Server and hosting architecture, domain and DNS planning, TLS, and environment setup
• Application, database, search, scheduled-task, storage, and mail-service configuration
• Monitoring, availability checks, alert routing, log review, and resource thresholds
• Encrypted backups, retention planning, off-server copies, and restoration validation
• Security updates, controlled maintenance, incident response, and operational documentation

How we work

We first map the service dependencies and current risks. Changes are scoped around the live workload, data volume, traffic, integrations, maintenance window, and recovery requirements. Deployment uses explicit configuration and validation points. Monitoring is tied to user-facing behavior rather than a server merely responding to a ping.

Where this service fits

This service supports new deployments, infrastructure migrations, unstable systems, and teams that need dependable operational cover after launch. It can be combined with application upgrades, performance work, security remediation, backup redesign, disaster recovery, or an ongoing managed-support arrangement.
