Sound familiar?
- A server is out of support and nobody wants to touch it.
- No one knows exactly how your systems are configured.
- Performance is poor and the cause is unclear.
Many business servers are held together by undocumented changes and a fear of restarting them. Systems administration brings them back under control through a clear inventory, safe patching, sensible access and monitoring. New builds are configured in a repeatable way so that they can be recovered or replaced with confidence.

Common questions
Do we still need a server, or should we move to the cloud?
It depends on your applications, connectivity and budget. Many small businesses can retire on-premises servers, while others benefit from keeping one. You will get a recommendation based on your setup.
Can you take on a server nobody has documented?
Yes. The first step is a careful audit of what is running, followed by backups and documentation before any significant changes.
What do you do about an end-of-life server?
Unsupported systems no longer receive security fixes. Kaynai can plan an upgrade, a migration or a retirement, with isolation measures in the meantime.
