The four questions this page answers

  1. 1

    What you buy

    A one-off remote build service: we provision a second cloud environment in your own account, ready to take over if the primary one fails, and write and rehearse the procedure for switching to it. The standby is cloud infrastructure, not a spare machine we hold for you.

  2. 2

    What you get

    4 deliverables, listed in full below

    • A standby cloud environment in your own account
    • Data replication from production configured
    • Written failover and failback runbooks

    How long it takes

    3–6 weeks

    Measured from the point everything under “what we need from you” is with us, not from the moment you pay.

What is this, in plain English?

A one-off remote build service: we provision a second cloud environment in your own account, ready to take over if the primary one fails, and write and rehearse the procedure for switching to it. The standby is cloud infrastructure, not a spare machine we hold for you.

You pay to start, we agree how much downtime and data loss you can actually tolerate, then build a standby environment kept in step with production, write step-by-step failover and failback procedures, and rehearse a real failover so the first time you use it is not during an actual outage. We report the recovery time we measured in that rehearsal — not a figure from a brochure.

The problem it solves

If the primary environment failed tomorrow, nobody is sure how long recovery would take — or whether it would work.

If that does not describe you, this is probably the wrong product. Tell us and we will point you at a better fit rather than sell you the nearest one.

What you get

The concrete things that exist at the end and that you own.

Delivery method
Remote Setup
Expected delivery time
3–6 weeks
Measured from the point everything under “what we need from you” is with us — not from the moment you pay.

Full detail of how work is handed over, what happens if requirements are outstanding and how order records are kept is in the Delivery & Fulfilment Policy.

What we need from you

Nothing starts until these are in place, and the turnaround above is measured from that point — not from the moment you pay.

  • A decision from you on how much downtime and data loss is tolerable
  • Administrative access to the production environment
  • An agreed window for the failover rehearsal

Who this is for

  • Businesses where downtime has a direct cost
  • Organisations with recovery time commitments
  • Anyone dependent on a single environment
  • Businesses with compliance obligations

Business needs this addresses: Improve IT infrastructure

What's not included

Just as plainly as the list above: the things this package is not.

  • Ongoing standby infrastructure costs, billed to your own account
  • Any guaranteed recovery time or availability figure — we report only what the rehearsal measured, and no SLA is offered with this product
  • Standby hardware — the standby is cloud infrastructure, not equipment we hold
  • Repeat rehearsals after handover (available under support plans)

Anything outside the scope above is quoted separately, in writing, before it is carried out. Nothing is added to your bill without your agreement.

FAQs

Does this guarantee we stay online?

No, and be wary of anyone who says otherwise. It gives you a rehearsed, measured way back — we will tell you the actual recovery time we achieved in testing rather than a number from a brochure.

Refund & cancellation

What happens if you change your mind, and what happens to money already paid.

Cooling-off before work starts
You have 7 days after ordering to cancel while work has not yet begun. Up to 25% may be retained to cover scoping and scheduling already carried out.
Work already done
Once delivery has started, refunds are assessed against the work completed and the deliverables already handed over — the list under “what you get” above is what that assessment is made against. Approved refunds are processed within 14 days.
If we cannot deliver what is described here
You are refunded. The scope on this page is the scope we are held to, which is exactly why the exclusions above are stated before you buy rather than after.

The full terms, item type by item type, are in the Refund & Cancellation Policy. How the work reaches you is covered by the Delivery & Fulfilment Policy.

Not sure this is the right product?
