Cloud, hosting & DevOps
Cloud migration and hosting that just runs. In Europe.
Cloud migration, CI/CD, containers, monitoring and managed hosting, set up by the studio that also builds your software. European data centers, predictable costs and a deploy you dare to run on a Friday afternoon.
— What we do
Cloud and DevOps for companies without a DevOps department
Seven out of 10 Dutch companies run in the cloud, but most of them run on a server someone set up once and nobody has dared to touch since. Updates pile up, backups have never been tested, and the bill grows every quarter. We replace that with a clean, documented environment.
We migrate to Hetzner, Azure or AWS, depending on what you need and where your data is allowed to live. Everything is written in Terraform, so your infrastructure is reproducible and readable. GitHub Actions builds, tests and deploys every change. Grafana and Sentry tell us something is wrong before you notice.
Since the Dutch NIS2 act took effect, patching, MFA, logging and tested backups are no longer a luxury but something you have to prove. Our managed cloud produces that evidence by default. And because we often build your software ourselves, we know exactly what needs to happen under the hood.

— Components
What you get.
Cloud migration
From VPS, on-premise or aging hosting to Hetzner, Azure or AWS. With a trial migration first and a rollback plan, so no downtime worth mentioning.
Managed hosting
Node.js, Next.js, WordPress or Shopify infrastructure on servers we manage: updates, backups, monitoring and a human who picks up.
CI/CD & DevOps automation
GitHub Actions or GitLab CI: every change is automatically tested, built and deployed. Back to the previous version in 1 click.
Containers & orchestration
Docker for everything, Kubernetes only when you truly need it. We pick the simplest setup that handles your load.
Monitoring & incident response
Grafana, Prometheus, Sentry and Uptime Kuma, with alerts that reach the right person. Every incident gets a short post-mortem.
Cloud cost optimization (FinOps)
Oversized servers and forgotten environments are the rule, not the exception. We make the bill readable, then smaller.
Backups, DR & hardening
Encrypted backups in a second location, restore tests on the calendar and a disaster recovery plan that fits on 1 page.
Serverless & edge
Cloudflare Workers, Vercel or Pages for sites and APIs that need to be fast worldwide without managing servers.

— How we work
How an engagement runs.
-
01
Inventory
Week 1: we map your current environment: servers, domains, data, dependencies and who has access to what.
-
02
Design
A one-page architecture sketch with the target environment, monthly cost and the choice of region and provider. You sign off.
-
03
Build as code
Network, servers, databases and pipelines in Terraform and GitHub Actions. Reproducible, with a staging environment identical to production.
-
04
Trial migration
We first migrate to a shadow environment and measure speed, errors and data integrity. Only then do we schedule the real cutover.
-
05
Cutover & operations
The migration itself happens at a quiet moment, with a rollback plan. Then monitoring, patching and a monthly report under a managed cloud contract.
— Why RABZI
Why RABZI for this work.
01
Set up by people who know the software
We host what we build and build what we host. No argument between developer and operator: it is the same studio.
02
European, on purpose
Hetzner in Germany and Finland, Azure and AWS in EU regions. You know where your data lives and under which law. Essential for healthcare, finance and government.
03
Everything as code
Terraform and pipelines in your repository. If you ever leave, you take an environment any DevOps engineer can read.
04
NIS2 evidence built in
Patch history, MFA, logging and tested backups are recorded. When a customer or insurer asks for proof, it is there.
05
A predictable bill
Fixed price for the migration, flat monthly fee for operations. The provider’s cloud costs pass through transparently, without markup.
06
Deploys without stress
Automated tests, staging and rollback make releases boring. Exactly what you want from infrastructure.

— Frequently asked questions
Questions about cloud, hosting & DevOps.
01How much does a cloud migration cost?
Migrating a website or application to a clean cloud environment starts at RABZI from €4,950 excl. VAT. Growth includes platform infrastructure with CI/CD and monitoring from €12,500. Flagship covers multiple environments, sovereign EU hosting and disaster recovery from €29,500. Ongoing management costs from €95 per month per environment. The provider’s own cloud costs are added transparently.
02Which cloud is best for my company?
It depends on your software, your budget and where your data is allowed to live. For most SME applications Hetzner offers the best value, with European data centers. Azure fits if your organization already runs on Microsoft 365, AWS when you need specific services or international scale. We advise independently; we do not sell licenses.
03What exactly is managed hosting?
With managed hosting we take over running the servers: operating system and runtime updates, security, backups, monitoring and recovery when something breaks. You never have to log in to a server. The difference from a budget host is that we know your application and can step in ourselves when something goes wrong.
04Why host in Europe?
Data held by a US provider falls under the CLOUD Act, even if the server sits in Frankfurt. For many organizations in healthcare, finance and government that is a risk they do not want to carry. European providers such as Hetzner, Scaleway and OVH offer the same technology under European law, often at lower cost. On Azure and AWS we deliberately choose EU regions and encryption with your own keys.
05Do we need Kubernetes?
Probably not. Kubernetes is powerful, but it demands constant care. For most business applications, Docker on 1 or 2 servers with a load balancer and automated deploys is plenty. We choose the simplest setup that handles your current and expected load, and scale up when the numbers call for it.
06What happens when something goes down?
Monitoring usually alerts us before you notice. Under a managed cloud contract we respond within the agreed time, restore service and deliver a short analysis: what happened, what we did and how we prevent a repeat. We regularly restore backups as a test, so we know recovery actually works.
