Web hosting services
How is managed infrastructure different from web hosting?
Web hosting gives you a server with basic support. Managed infrastructure means a dedicated engineering team that designs, monitors, secures and optimizes your entire environment. We handle everything from web server configuration to database tuning, security hardening and performance optimization. It is the difference between renting a room and having a team manage your entire building.
What makes Binadit better than other web hosting providers?
Unlike traditional web hosting providers, we don't sell standardized packages. Every environment is designed for your specific workload. You get direct access to senior engineers, 24/7 monitoring, and proactive optimization. We are an infrastructure partner, not just a hosting services vendor.
Do you offer the best web hosting for business-critical applications?
We go beyond what most people consider best web hosting. Our managed cloud infrastructure includes high availability, automatic failover, performance tuning, security hardening and verified backups. For businesses where downtime costs revenue, this is the level of hosting services you need.
What web hosting services does Binadit offer?
We offer fully managed web hosting services including dedicated web servers, database hosting, email infrastructure, SSL management, and domain hosting. Every hosting environment is custom-designed for your application and managed by senior engineers.
Is Binadit a web hosting provider?
We are more than a traditional web host. While we provide all the hosting services you expect, including website hosting, web server management and domain hosting, we also take full responsibility for performance, security and availability. We are an infrastructure partner that happens to handle your hosting.
What is the best website hosting for e-commerce?
The best website hosting for e-commerce requires optimized web server configuration, database tuning, caching strategies and auto-scaling for traffic spikes. Our ecommerce infrastructure is specifically designed for WooCommerce and Magento stores where slow pages cost conversions.
How does your web hosting compare to other web hosting providers?
Most web hosting providers offer standardized packages with limited support. Our web hosting services include dedicated resources, custom web server configuration, 24/7 engineer access, proactive monitoring and performance optimization. You get a team, not just a server.
Do you handle domain hosting and DNS management?
Yes. Domain hosting and DNS management are included in our hosting services. We handle domain registration, DNS configuration, DNSSEC, and ensure your domain infrastructure is reliable and properly configured.
Can you migrate us from our current web hosting provider?
Absolutely. We handle complete migrations from any web hosting provider with zero downtime. We analyze your current website hosting setup, plan the migration, execute it during low-traffic windows, and verify everything before the final cutover.
Why choose managed infrastructure over shared hosting?
Shared hosting puts your application on a web server alongside hundreds of others. Resources are limited, performance is unpredictable, and you have no control over the environment. Our managed infrastructure gives you dedicated resources, custom web server configuration, security hardening and performance optimization. When your business depends on uptime, shared hosting is not enough.
How do your web hosting services differ from cheap web hosting?
Cheap web hosting cuts corners on support, performance and security. Our web hosting services include dedicated web server resources, enterprise-grade security, performance tuning, daily verified backups, and direct engineer access. The cost difference pays for itself the first time you avoid an outage that would have cost you customers.
What is the difference between shared hosting and dedicated hosting?
Shared hosting places your website on a web server alongside hundreds of other sites, sharing CPU, memory and storage. Dedicated hosting gives you an entire server for your application alone. Our managed hosting goes further: dedicated resources plus expert web server configuration, monitoring, security and optimization.
Do you offer website hosting with email services?
Yes. Our hosting services include email infrastructure management. We set up and manage your email servers with proper SPF, DKIM, DMARC configuration, spam filtering, and deliverability optimization. We can also integrate with services like Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.
Can I host multiple websites on one server?
Yes. We design multi-site web server configurations with proper resource isolation so one site cannot affect another. Each website gets its own PHP-FPM pool, database, and resource limits. This gives you the efficiency of shared infrastructure with the isolation of dedicated hosting.
What uptime guarantee do your hosting services include?
We guarantee 99.99% uptime for our managed hosting environments. This is backed by redundant infrastructure, automatic failover, proactive monitoring, and 24/7 engineer availability. Our actual uptime consistently exceeds this guarantee.
Do you provide hosting for WordPress sites?
Yes. WordPress is one of the platforms we manage most frequently. Our WordPress hosting includes optimized web server configuration, database tuning, caching layers (Redis, Varnish), CDN integration, automatic updates, security hardening, and daily verified backups. We handle everything so you can focus on content.
VPS & server management
What is the best VPS for production applications?
The best VPS for production is one that is properly managed. Raw compute resources matter, but web server configuration, security hardening, monitoring, backups and performance tuning determine whether your application stays fast and reliable. We provide all of this as part of our managed VPS hosting.
How does managed VPS differ from unmanaged VPS?
With an unmanaged VPS you get a virtual server and root access. Everything else is your responsibility: web server setup, security patches, monitoring, backups, performance optimization. Our managed VPS includes all of this handled by senior engineers, with 24/7 monitoring and incident response.
Can you manage a VPS at our current provider?
Yes. We manage website server environments at any provider. We take over your existing VPS, audit the configuration, harden security, optimize performance and set up proper monitoring and backups. No migration required initially.
Is a managed VPS more expensive than unmanaged?
Management adds cost, but it saves far more. Consider the cost of a security breach, unplanned downtime, data loss, or the engineering hours spent on web server administration. The best VPS investment includes management that prevents these costs.
What web server software do you support?
We manage all major web server stacks including Nginx, Apache, LiteSpeed, Caddy, and custom configurations. We also handle the full application stack: PHP-FPM, Node.js, Python, databases, caching layers and load balancers.
What is the best VPS setup for production workloads?
The best VPS for production requires more than just a virtual server. You need proper monitoring, automated backups with verified restores, security updates, web server tuning, and database optimization. Our managed VPS hosting includes all of this, plus 24/7 engineer support and proactive performance optimization.
Can you manage our existing web server infrastructure?
Yes. We take over management of existing website server environments regardless of provider. We start with a full audit of your current web server setup, identify risks and optimization opportunities, then implement improvements. No need to migrate immediately - we can manage your current infrastructure while planning a better architecture.
What VPS providers do you work with?
We work with all major VPS and cloud providers including Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Vultr, Linode, OVH, AWS EC2, Google Compute, and Azure VMs. We are provider-agnostic and recommend the best fit based on your requirements, budget and data residency needs.
How do you handle VPS scaling when traffic grows?
We design infrastructure that scales with your business. This includes vertical scaling (upgrading VPS resources), horizontal scaling (adding more servers behind a load balancer), and auto-scaling for traffic spikes. We monitor resource usage and plan capacity increases before you hit limits.
Can you set up a web server cluster for high availability?
Yes. We design and manage web server clusters with load balancing, session management, database replication, and automatic failover. If one server goes down, traffic is instantly routed to healthy nodes. This eliminates single points of failure and ensures your application stays available.
What is the difference between a VPS and cloud hosting?
A VPS is a single virtual server with fixed resources. Cloud hosting typically means infrastructure spread across multiple servers with the ability to scale dynamically. We manage both, and often combine VPS reliability with cloud flexibility to create the optimal architecture for your workload.
Do you manage Windows servers?
Our primary expertise is Linux-based infrastructure (Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, AlmaLinux). We do manage Windows Server environments for specific use cases, including IIS and SQL Server setups. Contact us to discuss your Windows infrastructure needs.
Managed cloud platform
What is managed cloud infrastructure?
Managed cloud infrastructure means a dedicated team designs, deploys, monitors and optimizes your entire cloud environment. This includes server management, security updates, backup verification, performance tuning and 24/7 incident response, so your team can focus on building product. Learn more on our services page.
What is high availability architecture?
High availability means your infrastructure has no single points of failure. We implement load balancers, multiple application nodes, database replication with automatic failover, and redundant networking. If any component fails, traffic is automatically routed to healthy systems without user impact.
Which cloud providers do you support?
We work with all major cloud providers: AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Hetzner Cloud, DigitalOcean, Vultr, OVH, and more. We are provider-agnostic and recommend the best platform based on your specific requirements, performance needs, compliance requirements and budget.
Can you manage a multi-cloud setup?
Yes. We design and manage multi-cloud architectures that spread workloads across providers for redundancy, compliance or performance. This includes unified monitoring, consistent security policies, and automated failover between clouds.
What does 24/7 monitoring include?
Our monitoring covers every layer: server health (CPU, memory, disk, network), application performance (response times, error rates), database metrics (query performance, connections, replication lag), SSL certificates, DNS, and custom business metrics. When something triggers an alert, our engineers respond immediately.
How do you handle auto-scaling?
We configure auto-scaling based on real metrics: CPU usage, memory pressure, request queue depth, or custom application metrics. New instances are pre-configured and join the cluster automatically. We also set up scheduled scaling for predictable traffic patterns like marketing campaigns or business hours.
Do you use infrastructure as code?
Yes. We manage infrastructure using tools like Terraform, Ansible, and Docker. This means your entire environment is version-controlled, reproducible, and can be rebuilt in minutes. Infrastructure as code eliminates manual configuration drift and makes scaling and disaster recovery reliable.
What is the difference between managed cloud and colocation?
Colocation means placing your own physical servers in a data center. Managed cloud uses virtual infrastructure in a cloud provider. We primarily work with cloud infrastructure because it offers better scalability, redundancy and cost efficiency. However, we also manage private dedicated infrastructure when compliance or performance demands require it.
E-commerce infrastructure
How do you optimize WooCommerce performance?
We optimize WooCommerce at the infrastructure level: dedicated database servers with query tuning, Redis object caching, full-page caching with Varnish or Nginx FastCGI, CDN for static assets, and auto-scaling for traffic spikes. Most stores see page load times drop from 3-4 seconds to under 1 second.
How do you handle WooCommerce scaling for peak traffic?
We design multi-tier architectures with CDN, full-page caching, Redis object cache, optimized database queries and auto-scaling application nodes. We load test before every peak event to identify bottlenecks. Our clients routinely handle 10x their normal traffic without performance degradation.
Do you support Magento hosting?
Yes. Magento requires significant infrastructure resources and expert configuration. We manage Magento environments with Elasticsearch/OpenSearch, Redis for sessions and cache, Varnish for full-page caching, and optimized MySQL/MariaDB. We handle Magento upgrades, security patches, and performance tuning.
Can you handle Black Friday and Cyber Monday traffic?
Absolutely. We prepare e-commerce infrastructure weeks in advance: load testing to identify bottlenecks, pre-scaling resources, optimizing caching layers, and setting up auto-scaling policies. During the event, our engineers monitor in real-time and respond instantly to any issues. Our clients consistently handle peak traffic without slowdowns.
What caching strategies do you use for e-commerce?
We implement multiple caching layers: full-page caching (Varnish or Nginx FastCGI) for anonymous visitors, Redis object caching for database queries, CDN for static assets and images, browser caching policies, and fragment caching for dynamic content. Cart and checkout pages bypass full-page cache to ensure real-time accuracy.
How do you handle PCI compliance for e-commerce?
We design PCI-ready environments with network segmentation, encrypted data transmission, access controls, centralized logging, and regular vulnerability scanning. While PCI certification depends on your payment processing setup, our infrastructure meets the technical requirements for PCI DSS compliance.
Can you optimize our product image loading speed?
Yes. We implement image optimization pipelines including WebP/AVIF conversion, responsive image serving, lazy loading, and CDN delivery from edge locations closest to your customers. This typically reduces page weight by 50-70% and significantly improves Core Web Vitals scores.
Do you support headless commerce architectures?
Yes. We manage infrastructure for headless commerce setups where the frontend (React, Next.js, Vue) is decoupled from the backend (WooCommerce, Magento, Shopify API). This includes API server management, CDN configuration for the frontend, and optimized backend infrastructure.
Private & dedicated infrastructure
When do I need private infrastructure instead of cloud?
Private infrastructure is the right choice when you have strict compliance requirements (healthcare, finance), need guaranteed performance without noisy neighbors, require complete data isolation, or when your workload is large enough that dedicated hardware is more cost-effective than cloud. See our private infrastructure service for details.
What is the difference between private cloud and public cloud?
Public cloud means shared infrastructure managed by providers like AWS or Google Cloud. Private cloud means dedicated hardware exclusively for your organization, either in a data center or on-premise. We design and manage both, and hybrid setups that combine the benefits of each.
Do you manage on-premise servers?
Yes. We manage on-premise server infrastructure remotely. This includes monitoring, security updates, backup management, performance optimization, and incident response. We treat your on-premise servers with the same level of care as cloud infrastructure.
Can you design a GDPR-compliant private infrastructure?
Yes. We design private infrastructure that meets GDPR requirements: data stored exclusively in EU data centers, encryption at rest and in transit, access controls with audit logging, Data Processing Agreements, and documented data handling procedures. We also support NEN 7510 and ISO 27001 compliance.
What hardware do you recommend for dedicated servers?
We recommend hardware based on your workload profile. For CPU-intensive applications: AMD EPYC or Intel Xeon processors. For database workloads: NVMe SSDs with high IOPS. For storage-heavy workloads: large SSD arrays with RAID. We handle all hardware recommendations, procurement coordination, and configuration.
How do you ensure high availability with dedicated servers?
We design redundant architectures with multiple dedicated servers, load balancers, database replication with automatic failover, redundant network paths, and off-site backups. If any single component fails, the system continues operating without user impact.
DevOps & engineering support
What does DevOps support include?
Our DevOps support gives you direct access to senior infrastructure engineers. This includes CI/CD pipeline optimization, infrastructure as code, container orchestration, monitoring setup, incident response, and ongoing platform optimization. No ticket queues - you talk directly to the engineers who manage your systems.
Can you replace our in-house DevOps team?
Yes. Many clients use us as their entire infrastructure team. You get the expertise of multiple senior engineers for a fraction of the cost of hiring in-house. We handle everything from day-to-day operations to architecture planning, without the overhead of recruitment, training and retention.
Do you set up CI/CD pipelines?
Yes. We design and implement CI/CD pipelines using tools like GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or Bitbucket Pipelines. This includes automated testing, staging deployments, production rollouts with zero downtime, rollback procedures, and deployment notifications.
Do you work with Docker and Kubernetes?
Yes. We design and manage containerized environments with Docker and orchestrate them with Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, or Nomad. This includes container image optimization, registry management, deployment strategies, scaling policies, and monitoring. We choose the right tool for your scale and complexity.
Can you help us implement infrastructure as code?
Yes. We migrate manual infrastructure setups to infrastructure as code using Terraform for provisioning and Ansible for configuration management. This gives you version-controlled, reproducible, and auditable infrastructure that can be rebuilt from scratch in minutes.
Do you provide on-call support?
Yes. Our 24/7 on-call support means an engineer who knows your infrastructure is always available. When an alert triggers, we investigate and resolve the issue immediately. You only get contacted if a decision requires your input. No more midnight pages for your development team.
How do you handle incident response?
When an incident occurs, our engineers respond within 15 minutes. We follow a structured process: detect, contain, resolve, then perform root cause analysis. After every significant incident, we provide a detailed post-mortem with the timeline, root cause, impact, and preventive measures implemented.
Can you optimize our deployment process?
Yes. We analyze your current deployment workflow and implement improvements: automated testing before deployment, blue-green or canary deployment strategies, automatic rollback on failure, deployment notifications, and performance benchmarking. The goal is fast, safe, zero-downtime deployments.
Migration & onboarding
Can you migrate our infrastructure without downtime?
Yes. We handle complete migrations from any provider, including complex multi-cloud setups. Every migration is planned meticulously, executed during low-traffic windows, and verified before DNS cutover. Zero downtime is our standard, not an exception. Read more about how we work.
Can you migrate our infrastructure from AWS or another provider?
Yes. We handle complete migrations from AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or any other provider. We analyze your current setup, design the target architecture, execute the migration with zero downtime, and verify everything before cutover. Most migrations complete within 1-2 weeks.
Is there downtime during migration?
No. Every migration we execute is designed for zero downtime. We run parallel environments, sync data continuously, and only cut over DNS after full verification. Your users never notice the transition.
How long does an infrastructure migration take?
Typical migrations take 1-6 weeks depending on complexity. A single-server setup can be migrated in a weekend. A multi-server environment with databases, caching layers and custom configurations usually takes 2-4 weeks. Complex multi-cloud setups may take up to 6 weeks. All migrations are executed with zero downtime.
How long before we see performance improvements?
Most clients see significant improvements within the first week after migration. Database optimization and caching improvements show immediate results. Ongoing optimization continues to improve performance month over month.
Do we need to change our application code?
Rarely. Most performance and reliability improvements happen at the infrastructure level: server configuration, caching layers, database tuning, load balancing. We work with your existing application stack.
What does the onboarding process look like?
Onboarding follows a clear process: 1) Initial call to understand your setup and goals. 2) Infrastructure audit and architecture proposal. 3) Migration plan with timeline. 4) Execution with zero downtime. 5) Post-migration verification and optimization. 6) Ongoing management and support. Most clients are fully onboarded within 2-4 weeks.
Can you migrate a database without data loss?
Yes. We use continuous replication during database migrations. The source database stays live while data syncs to the target. We verify data integrity before cutover and keep the source as a fallback. Whether it is MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB or Redis, we handle database migrations with zero data loss.
Do you help migrate from cPanel or Plesk hosting?
Yes. Many of our clients outgrow cPanel or Plesk-based hosting. We migrate your applications, databases, email, DNS, and SSL certificates to properly managed infrastructure. You lose the control panel but gain a team of engineers who handle everything the control panel never could.
Performance & optimization
How do you optimize web server performance?
We tune every layer of the web server stack: Nginx/Apache worker processes and connection limits, PHP-FPM pool sizes and process management, database query optimization and connection pooling, caching layers (Redis, Varnish, CDN), and OS-level kernel parameters. Every configuration is tailored to your specific application and traffic patterns.
What is database optimization and why does it matter?
Database optimization includes query analysis, index tuning, connection pooling, buffer/cache sizing, and replication configuration. A poorly optimized database is the most common cause of slow web applications. We regularly analyze slow queries and optimize database performance to keep your application fast.
How do you improve Core Web Vitals scores?
We improve Core Web Vitals through server-side optimizations: faster Time to First Byte (TTFB) via web server tuning and caching, reduced Largest Contentful Paint via image optimization and CDN, and lower Cumulative Layout Shift through proper resource loading. Infrastructure optimization typically handles 60-70% of Core Web Vitals improvements.
Do you set up CDN for faster global delivery?
Yes. We implement CDN (Content Delivery Network) solutions using Cloudflare, CloudFront, Fastly or BunnyCDN. This serves static assets from edge locations closest to your users, reducing latency significantly. We configure proper cache headers, purge strategies, and origin shielding for optimal performance.
How do you handle traffic spikes?
We prepare for traffic spikes through multiple strategies: auto-scaling application servers, aggressive caching layers, CDN for static content, database read replicas, and connection pooling. For predictable events, we pre-scale infrastructure. For unexpected spikes, auto-scaling rules kick in automatically.
What caching layers do you implement?
We implement a full caching stack: browser caching (Cache-Control headers), CDN edge caching, full-page caching (Varnish or Nginx FastCGI), application object caching (Redis or Memcached), database query caching, and opcode caching (OPcache for PHP). Each layer is configured to maximize hit rates while ensuring content freshness.
Can you load test our application before a launch?
Yes. We perform load testing before major launches, campaigns, or traffic events. We simulate realistic user patterns to identify bottlenecks at every layer: web server, application, database, and network. We then optimize and re-test until your infrastructure handles the expected load with headroom.
How do you optimize MySQL and PostgreSQL performance?
We tune database performance through buffer pool sizing, query cache configuration, connection pooling, slow query analysis, index optimization, table partitioning for large datasets, and replication for read scaling. We continuously monitor database metrics and proactively optimize before performance degrades.
Security & compliance
What happens after a security breach?
We contain the breach, perform forensic analysis to understand the scope, rebuild the environment on hardened infrastructure, and implement defense-in-depth security: WAF, intrusion detection, centralized logging, automated patching, and ongoing vulnerability scanning. Recovery typically completes within 48 hours.
How do you handle security updates and patching?
We apply security patches within 24 hours of release for critical vulnerabilities. Non-critical patches are tested and rolled out weekly. All updates are applied with zero downtime using rolling deployments. We monitor CVE databases and vendor advisories continuously.
What security measures are included by default?
Every environment includes: firewall management, SSH hardening, intrusion detection, automated security patching, SSL/TLS management, DDoS protection, centralized logging, and regular vulnerability scanning. Security is not an add-on, it is built into every infrastructure we manage.
Do you support compliance requirements like SOC 2 or ISO 27001?
Yes. We design infrastructure that meets SOC 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR requirements. This includes encryption at rest and in transit, access control, audit logging, backup verification, and incident response procedures. We provide documentation and evidence for your compliance audits.
How do you handle data backups?
We run daily encrypted backups with off-site storage and automated restore testing. We verify your backups actually work, not just that the backup job completed. Retention periods, frequency and recovery point objectives are configured based on your requirements.
Do you provide DDoS protection?
Yes. Every environment includes DDoS mitigation. We implement rate limiting, traffic filtering, CDN-based protection (Cloudflare, AWS Shield), and network-level filtering. For high-risk applications, we configure advanced DDoS protection with traffic scrubbing and automatic mitigation rules.
How do you manage SSL certificates?
We handle complete SSL/TLS management: certificate procurement, installation, renewal automation, and configuration. We enforce modern TLS protocols, configure HSTS headers, and ensure proper certificate chains. Certificates are renewed automatically before expiry - you never have to think about it.
Do you perform vulnerability scanning?
Yes. We run regular automated vulnerability scans on all managed infrastructure. This includes OS-level vulnerability detection, web application scanning, dependency auditing, and configuration compliance checks. Findings are prioritized by severity and remediated promptly.
How do you handle access control and user management?
We implement role-based access control, SSH key authentication (no passwords), two-factor authentication for critical systems, VPN access for management interfaces, and centralized audit logging. Every access event is logged and reviewable. We follow the principle of least privilege.
Can you help us pass a security audit?
Yes. We design infrastructure with audit requirements in mind: encryption standards, access controls, logging, backup verification, incident response procedures, and documented security policies. We provide the technical evidence and documentation your auditors need.
Backups & disaster recovery
How often are backups taken?
By default, we run daily full backups with hourly incremental backups. For critical databases, we implement continuous replication with point-in-time recovery. Backup frequency, retention, and RPO targets are configured based on your specific requirements.
Where are backups stored?
Backups are stored in a separate geographic location from your primary infrastructure. All backups are encrypted at rest and in transit. We use redundant storage to ensure backup availability even if a data center has issues.
Do you test backup restores?
Yes. We perform automated restore testing on every backup. This verifies that backups are complete, uncorrupted, and can actually be restored within your recovery time objective. Many providers skip this step - we consider it essential.
What is your disaster recovery process?
Our disaster recovery process includes: documented runbooks for every failure scenario, automated failover for critical components, off-site backups with verified restores, and regular DR testing. For critical environments, we maintain warm standby infrastructure that can take over within minutes.
Can you recover a single database table instead of a full restore?
Yes. Our backup strategy supports granular recovery. We can restore individual databases, tables, or even specific rows from point-in-time backups. This is especially important for data corruption scenarios where a full restore would be excessive.
What is the difference between RPO and RTO?
RPO (Recovery Point Objective) defines how much data you can afford to lose - if RPO is 1 hour, backups run hourly. RTO (Recovery Time Objective) defines how quickly you need to be back online. We design backup and disaster recovery strategies around your specific RPO and RTO requirements.
Technical stack & tools
What programming languages and frameworks do you support?
We manage infrastructure for any technology stack: PHP (Laravel, Symfony, WordPress), Python (Django, Flask), Node.js (Express, Next.js), Ruby (Rails), Java, Go, and more. We optimize the web server, database, and caching layers for your specific framework.
Do you support containerized applications?
Yes. We manage Docker-based applications with container orchestration via Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, or Nomad. This includes image optimization, registry management, deployment strategies, resource limits, health checks, and monitoring.
What database systems do you manage?
We manage MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch, and more. This includes installation, configuration tuning, replication setup, backup management, version upgrades, and ongoing performance optimization.
Do you support serverless architectures?
Yes. We design and manage serverless architectures using AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions, or similar platforms. We handle API Gateway configuration, function optimization, cold start mitigation, monitoring, and cost optimization for serverless workloads.
Can you set up a staging environment that mirrors production?
Yes. We create staging environments that are exact replicas of production, using infrastructure as code. This ensures reliable testing before production deployments. Staging environments can be always-on or spun up on-demand to reduce costs.
Do you manage message queues and background workers?
Yes. We manage message queue systems like RabbitMQ, Redis queues, Amazon SQS, and Apache Kafka. This includes queue monitoring, worker process management, dead letter handling, and scaling workers based on queue depth.
What monitoring tools do you use?
We use a combination of tools depending on your needs: Prometheus and Grafana for metrics, uptime monitoring for external availability checks, centralized logging with the ELK stack or Loki, and custom alerting rules. All monitoring data is accessible to you via dashboards.
Do you support Git-based deployment workflows?
Yes. We integrate with your Git workflow: push to a branch triggers automated tests, staging deployment, and with approval, production deployment. We support GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and self-hosted Git servers. Deployments are atomic with automatic rollback on failure.
Pricing & contracts
How does Binadit pricing work?
We offer transparent monthly pricing based on your infrastructure size and complexity. Every proposal includes a clear breakdown of what is included. No surprise costs, no hidden fees. Contact us for a custom quote.
Are there long-term contracts?
We work with monthly agreements. We believe in earning your trust every month, not locking you into long-term contracts. That said, most clients stay because the infrastructure and support quality speaks for itself.
What is included in the monthly fee?
Everything: infrastructure management, 24/7 monitoring, security hardening, performance optimization, backup management, incident response, and direct engineer support. The only extras are infrastructure costs if you scale up resources.
Is managed infrastructure more expensive than doing it yourself?
Consider what in-house infrastructure management actually costs: a senior DevOps engineer salary, on-call rotations, training, tooling, and the opportunity cost of time not spent on your product. Most businesses find managed infrastructure costs less than half of a full-time hire while delivering better results.
Do you charge extra for emergency support?
No. Emergency support, incident response, and 24/7 monitoring are included in every plan. There are no per-incident fees or overtime charges. When your infrastructure needs attention at 3am, we handle it as part of the service.
Are infrastructure costs (servers, cloud) included?
Infrastructure costs are separate from management fees. You pay your cloud provider directly for resources, and us for managing them. This gives you full transparency into both costs. We also help optimize your cloud spend to eliminate waste.
Do you offer a trial or proof of concept?
We offer a free infrastructure audit as a starting point. This gives you a clear picture of your current setup, risks, and optimization opportunities. From there, you can decide if our management service is the right fit. No commitment required.
How quickly can you scale our plan if we grow?
Scaling is seamless. Adding servers, increasing resources, or expanding to new regions is part of our ongoing service. We monitor growth trends and proactively recommend scaling before you hit capacity limits. There are no delays or renegotiations needed.
