Ship faster on Hetzner with automation you can trust
We design, automate and operate infrastructure on Hetzner—using Kubernetes, Terraform and GitOps—so your team can move with confidence and stay compliant with EU data protection rules.
Looking to migrate from AWS or GCP to EU hosting? We deliver GDPR‑compliant migrations to Hetzner and other EU providers with zero‑downtime strategies.
What we do
Infrastructure Automation
We build reproducible environments with Terraform, Ansible and GitLab CI. From bare‑metal to Kubernetes clusters, everything is codified, reviewed and auditable.
Managed Kubernetes on Hetzner
Production‑ready clusters with secure defaults, observability, backup and autoscaling. We integrate Argo CD or Flux for GitOps and automate upgrades with zero‑downtime rollouts.
GDPR‑ready Migration to the EU
Move away from US‑based cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure) to EU hosting (e.g., Hetzner) with a structured migration plan. We map services, cost, risks and implement staged cutovers with rollback options while ensuring EU data residency.
Application Scaling & Cloud‑Native Design
We modernize monoliths into well‑scaling cloud‑native systems: service boundaries, APIs, containers, observability and progressive delivery—without big‑bang rewrites.
DevOps Enablement
We help your team adopt CI/CD, container build pipelines and infrastructure testing so changes become safe, small and frequent.
Hetzner done right
IaC from day one
Servers, networking, firewalls and DNS are provisioned via Terraform. Changes are tracked in Git and applied through pipelines for full traceability.
Secure by default
We apply hardened images, least‑privilege access, encrypted backups and secrets management. Compliance is easier when security is built‑in.
Observability
Dashboards and alerts with Prometheus, Loki and Grafana give you the signals you need—without the noise.
Migrate from US hosting to EU (GDPR‑compliant)
Assessment & EU architecture
We catalog workloads and design equivalent architectures on EU providers (Hetzner and others) that meet performance, availability and cost targets while ensuring EU data residency.
Staged cutovers
We iterate: dev → staging → production. Each step includes testing, data sync and rollback to minimize risk and downtime.
GDPR alignment
Keep data in the EU, establish DPAs, and implement logging/retention policies to support audits and Schrems II considerations.
Scale your application without the rewrite
From monolith to modular
Identify domains, extract services where it pays off, keep what’s stable. Strangler‑fig patterns, shared contracts, zero‑downtime rollouts.
Cloud‑native platform
Containers, CI/CD, GitOps, autoscaling, caching and queues. Kubernetes where it fits, simpler where it doesn’t.
Performance & reliability
SLOs, load testing, capacity planning and incident response. Tracing, metrics and logs to see bottlenecks before your users do.
