Managed Hosting
Managed Hosting – Professional Operation for Your Application
Hosting is more than just storage space on a server. It is about availability, security, and the peace of mind that everything is running smoothly in the background. That is exactly what we do for you: We take care of servers, updates, and maintenance so that you can focus on what really matters – your business.
Fully Managed
Updates, backups, monitoring, and SLAs
Open Source
No licensing costs, no vendor lock-in
Sovereign
Servers in Germany and France, GDPR-compliant
What “Managed” Means
You Use the Application, We Handle the Rest
“Managed” means: You are not just renting a server, but the management that goes with it. We handle the technical operations, so you do not have to worry about the system yourself.
Everything else that follows the go-live – maintenance, support, and further development – can be found under Service & Support.
- Servers: We provide the servers and operate them for you
- Updates: We keep the system up to date
- Maintenance: We continuously maintain the environment to ensure it remains stable
- Availability and Security: We ensure that your application is accessible and protected

Open Source
Open Source is Business-Critical
Our portfolio of hosted applications consists exclusively of open-source software—software whose source code is public and may be used freely. For us, this is not a matter of ideology, but a conscious business decision.
No Vendor Lock-in: You are not tied to a single provider. You can see what is happening with your data at any time and can switch providers without losing functions or data. You retain sovereignty over your infrastructure.
Privacy Policy
Data Privacy: Your Data Stays in Europe
We clearly define where your data is located and who is permitted to process it in writing.
- Data Centers: Our servers are located exclusively in European data centers, the vast majority of them in Germany
- Data Processing Agreement (DPA): Upon request, we can enter into a DPA with you in accordance with GDPR. This stipulates that we process your data exclusively for the operation of the application – nothing more and nothing less
- No Data Sharing: Your data will not be shared with third parties

Infrastructure
The Infrastructure You Need
Not every project needs the same thing. Depending on the requirements, we operate your application on one of four variants – from an affordable shared environment to a server that belongs only to you.
Shared Hosting
You share a server with other projects. For classic websites and applications with modest requirements, this offers the best price-performance ratio – high-performance, reliable, and without unnecessary overhead.
OpenStack Public Cloud
More flexibility and scalability: In our cloud based on the open-source software OpenStack, resources grow with the needs of your project – ideal if your traffic fluctuates or your project is growing.
VMware Private Cloud
For particularly demanding projects: your own virtual environment, separated from other customers, on our enterprise infrastructure. It offers particularly high availability and complex, custom setups. VMware is the only software here that is not open source: it is part of the private cloud service of our data center partner OVHcloud and is not installed on your systems.
Dedicated Bare Metal
A physical server just for you, without any virtualization in between. For maximum computing power and high throughput when your application has particularly high requirements.
Operational Services
Matching Services for Your Hosting
Service & Support
Maintenance, monitoring, support, and further development after go-live – with a direct contact person who knows your project.
WordPress Support
Updates, security, error analysis, and performance tuning for WordPress websites – as quick help or ongoing maintenance.
Custom Development
Software that fits your processes from the start – from concept to implementation to long-term support.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions about Managed Hosting
What is the difference between managed hosting and normal hosting?
With normal hosting, you rent server space and take care of updates, security, and errors yourself. With managed hosting, we handle the technical operations – servers, updates, backups, and monitoring – and you simply use your application.
Where are the servers located?
Exclusively in European data centers, the vast majority of them in Germany. Your data remains in Europe and is not shared with third parties.
Do I get a Data Processing Agreement?
Yes. Upon request, we can enter into a DPA with you in accordance with GDPR. This stipulates that we process your data exclusively for the operation of your application.
Which hosting variant fits my project?
Shared hosting is usually sufficient for classic websites. If your traffic fluctuates or your project grows, the OpenStack Public Cloud makes sense. For high availability and complex setups, there is the VMware Private Cloud, and for maximum performance, a dedicated bare-metal server. We can determine which variant fits best together.
Can you take over my existing application?
Generally, yes. We look at how your application is operated today and plan the migration to ensure as little downtime as possible.
Am I tied to you?
No. We rely on open-source software so that you can switch at any time without losing functions or data. You retain sovereignty over your infrastructure.
How much does managed hosting cost?
That depends on the infrastructure and the scope of support. You can find the individual packages in the hosting offers on saasweb.cloud; for custom setups, we will provide you with a quote.
