CI/CD pipelines
Automated build, test, and deploy on GitHub Actions or Bitbucket Pipelines, so a merge to main ships the same way every time — no ritual, no shell history.

Managed DevOps Services
We build it, then we run it. Most DevOps shops build your pipelines, hand back the pager, and move on — Server Surgeon does both halves. Senior engineers build your CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, and deployment automation, then run what we built (or what you built) in production: monitoring, incident response, patching, backups, and scaling, 24/7/365. Scoped to exactly what you hand off and custom-quoted — never a percentage of your cloud bill.

Who It's For
For teams that need DevOps done, not another hire
Somebody on your team deploys by ritual: the shell history knows the steps, staging drifted from production months ago, and every release depends on the one engineer who remembers why. Our managed DevOps services take that off your plate — the pipeline that needs building, the operations that need running, or both — so your engineers ship product instead of babysitting releases.
The Build Half
We build the automation your releases are missing
Built in your repositories and your cloud accounts, so everything is reviewable, repeatable, and yours to keep.
Infrastructure as code
Your environment captured in Terraform: reviewable in a pull request, repeatable in a new region, and documented by definition instead of by memory.
Configuration management
Server configuration automated with Ansible, so every box is built the same way and a replacement is a playbook run, not an afternoon of guesswork.
Containerization
Your application packaged in Docker, ready to run the same way on a laptop, in staging, and in production.
Deployment automation
Releases that ship on a merge, with a rollback path that works — because the deploy you can undo is the deploy you stop fearing.
Environment builds
Staging that actually matches production, and production built to be operated: monitoring, alerting, and backups wired in from day one.
The Run Half
Then we run what we built. Or what you built.
Day-2 operations on the same 24/7 desk that has watched our managed servers since 2005.
Monitoring & incident response
Our monitoring opens the ticket itself when something needs attention, and a senior engineer is working urgent issues in 5 to 10 minutes — not an automated acknowledgement.
Patching & updates
Operating systems, packages, and the pipeline tooling itself kept current, with scheduled and notified reboots when a kernel needs one.
Backups & disaster recovery
Backup coverage designed to your recovery needs, tested restores, and a plan for the day a server, a region, or a deploy goes wrong.
Scaling & capacity
Capacity watched and right-sized: we recommend the change, you approve it, we carry it out — whether that is a bigger instance or another node behind the load balancer.
Containerized workloads
Docker-based applications administered day to day: images rebuilt and deployed through the pipeline, registries kept tidy, and containers monitored like any other production service.
Security, access & cost
Access control kept least-privilege and logged per engineer, security updates applied, and cloud spend reviewed so you are not paying for capacity nothing uses.
Why Server Surgeon
Most shops ship and step away. We stay on watch.
The usual DevOps engagement ends at handoff: the consultancy builds your pipeline, closes the statement of work, and the pager lands back on your team. We are structured differently. Server Surgeon has run production Linux 24/7/365 since 2005 — and on AWS since 2006, when EC2 was new — so operating what we build is not an afterthought; it is the half we have done longest.
The people matter too. Every ticket is worked by a senior engineer with 8+ years running production servers — no outsourcing, no junior staff in your accounts. Access is scoped to the work and logged per engineer, and everything we build sits in your repositories and your cloud accounts, so nothing about the engagement locks you in. Month-to-month terms and a 30-day money-back guarantee keep it that way.
Scope & Pricing
Scoped to exactly what you hand off
DevOps work does not fit a one-size price, so we do not pretend it does. It starts with a conversation about what you run and what you want off your plate. We put the scope in writing — what we build, what we run, where the lines are, and what it costs — and you approve it before anything starts. Ongoing work runs month-to-month with no fixed-term contract.
Priced to the work, never a percentage of your cloud bill. No hidden costs — everything is quoted in writing before work starts — and the 30-day money-back guarantee applies. If you would rather start smaller, classic Linux Server Management is a flat $100 per server per month and pairs naturally with a DevOps engagement.

Just need the servers managed?
If what you want is classic 24/7 server management rather than pipelines and automation, that is our flat-rate plan — $100 per server per month on whatever you run:
“Thank you for keeping me updated and for your fabulous support today. I can see that my client's websites are running just fine and email services are back to normal. You (Alexander) and Edward have provided exceptional service, thank you again!”
Paul Server Surgeon Customer
“Everyone was very helpful during this migration. You have a very friendly and knowledgeable staff who made this a cake walk for us. It's not often you work with multiple support reps who know exactly what's going on with a single account. You guys are awesome, and I tell everyone I know about you.”
Jim Server Surgeon Customer
“I have been using your services now for over 5 years and am extremely pleased with the relationship that we have established. Just set it and forget it — you provide a much-needed coverage in our gap between what we know, what we don't, and what we just don't know that we don't know…”

Frequently Asked
Managed DevOps Services Quick FAQ
These are the questions we hear most often. Search our extensive FAQ here.
Is this part of your $100 server management plan?
No. Linux Server Management is a flat $100 per server per month. Managed DevOps is scoped to the work you hand off — a pipeline build, ongoing operations, or both — and custom-quoted, never a percentage of your cloud bill. The terms are month-to-month with no fixed-term contract, and the 30-day money-back guarantee applies here too.
What do you build with?
CI/CD pipelines on GitHub Actions or Bitbucket Pipelines, infrastructure as code in Terraform, configuration management with Ansible, and applications packaged in Docker. Everything we build lives in your repositories and your cloud accounts — reviewable, repeatable, and yours.
Will you run a pipeline or environment we already built?
Yes. Some customers hand us the build half, some hand us the run half, and some hand us both. If your team already built the automation, we take over the operating: monitoring, incident response, patching, backups, scaling, and the day-to-day administration around it.
More questions
Which clouds do you work in?
AWS is our specialty — we have operated servers on AWS since 2006, when EC2 was new. If you run on Google Cloud, Azure, DigitalOcean, or your own hardware, we support that too. Linux is Linux, and the pipelines and tooling we build work anywhere.
How fast do you respond when a deploy or a server breaks?
Urgent tickets respond in 5 to 10 minutes, standard tickets in 10 to 30, 24/7/365. Our monitoring opens the ticket itself when something needs attention, and a senior engineer works it — not an automated acknowledgement.
What does it cost?
It is priced to the work, not a cut of your cloud bill. We scope it with you in a conversation, put the scope in writing, and quote it — so there are no hidden costs. Ongoing work runs month-to-month, with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Who owns what you build?
You do. The code sits in your repositories and the infrastructure runs in your cloud accounts, under access that is scoped to the work and logged per engineer. Because the terms are month-to-month, you can take it all in-house at any time and everything keeps working without us.
