What is this, in plain English?

A one-off remote service covering one server: everything in Server Configuration, plus monitoring, automated backups and the first month of active management. This is a single payment, not a subscription — management stops after the first month unless you take out a support plan.

For businesses that want a server set up and then genuinely looked after for a while, rather than handed a runbook and left to it. We configure and harden the server remotely, add monitoring and automated offsite backups with a verified restore, then patch and watch it for one month while your team settles in. All work is done over the network; no hardware is supplied.

The problem it solves

You need a server, but nobody internally will realistically monitor or patch it once it is running.

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 & fulfilment

Stream Edge Solutions ships nothing. Every package on this site is carried out and handed over remotely — this is exactly what happens after you order.

Delivery method

Expected delivery time

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 server you have already provisioned, or a cloud account to provision one in
  • Root or sudo SSH access for us
  • Your application and its deployment details
  • Named recipients for monitoring alerts

Who this is for

  • Businesses without in-house IT
  • Teams deploying their first production system
  • Anyone who has been burned by an unpatched server
  • Businesses preferring a managed handover

Business needs this addresses: Improve IT infrastructure

What's not included

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

  • The server itself, its hosting fees and backup storage fees, billed to your own account
  • Any hardware — this is remote configuration only
  • Management beyond the first month (see the support plans)
  • Application development

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

What happens after the first month?

Either your team takes over using the runbook, or you move onto a monthly support plan. We will tell you honestly which makes sense for your situation.

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.
