Find out how we combine technology and service in a unique way to make your customers' digital projects more successful.
How we understand hosting for modern application operation!
Our Application Operations is a complex and multi-layered service based on several integral layers. Firstly, we utilise our own NixOS cloud platform to operate the scalable and secure hosting infrastructure. With infrastructure as code, we automate the deployment and management of the infrastructure on our cloud platform to ensure high consistency and efficiency. CI/CD pipelines and deployment (for example with Batou) enable continuous integration and deployment so that software can be delivered quickly and reliably. Managed operations are an important aspect of our service. These include the professional management and maintenance of the entire operating environment with all component roles on the platform. We carry out regular backups to ensure maximum data security. Our monitoring and reporting continuously monitors system performance and creates detailed reports to ensure transparency and proactive problem solving. Finally, we ensure the quality of our services through agreed Service Level Agreements (SLA) that provide guaranteed availability and support. Together, these layers ensure stable and efficient operation of your applications and simply offer more than hosting.
Hosting services optimised for digital agencies
The Flying Circus has been operating a successful partner network of agencies and digital service providers for years. We understand the challenges of a fast-paced agency environment and have developed a service model for application operations that is perfectly tailored to your application hosting needs. Our offering covers all requirements from A to Z: from automated workflows (A) and efficient communication (C) to attractive discounts (D), comprehensive support (S).

Hosting with the Flying Circus
F.A.Q.
We do not operate standard stacks, but operating environments that are highly customised to your needs. There are also different service levels for maintenance and support. So we can't give a generalised answer to this question. The easiest way is to talk to us. We would be happy to discuss your project in a Quick Expert Talk and provide you with an immediate assessment and initial price indication. Quick and uncomplicated!
No! The Flying Circus stands for digital sovereignty and consciously relies on open-source technologies. We operate our own platform with our data centres located in Germany.
We create a customised concept for each project and once the order has been placed, the "preparation for take-off" begins. You will receive a checklist with all the important things that we need to consider, realise and monitor in a project to ensure stable application operation. Depending on the service level, our App Ops team then acts as a co-pilot and we actively support the realisation of the application operation on our platform or we act as ground control and only provide support on demand if necessary.
