Managed Operations

With nearly 30 years managing production environments, we take full ownership of the operational work that keeps your platform healthy: patching, updates, capacity planning and disaster recovery. Your developers stay in flow, and the foundation they're building on doesn't let them down.

Free your engineers to focus on what they do best

When your team outsources operational work to us, they get back the time and focus that patching rotas, status monitoring, and audit preparation quietly consume. The people you hired to build your product spend their time building it - and the operational layer is in the hands of engineers who do this every day.

Senior engineers back on the roadmap

Your most experienced engineers know your platform best, which makes them the right people to build on it - not the right people to be on call at the weekend. We take the rota, the patching, and the firefighting off their plate so their time goes where it delivers most.

24/7 coverage, without the 24/7 burden

Our NOC monitors your environment around the clock from independent infrastructure. Issues that surface at midnight are caught, triaged, and acted on immediately - so by the time your team starts their day, the situation is already resolved and documented.

Audit-ready as a matter of course

We maintain patch records, access logs, and restore test evidence continuously as part of our operational process. When an audit lands, the evidence is already there. No scramble, no reconstruction, no weekend project pulling your team away from their work.

Why teams hand their operations to Cyso

Running production operations usually comes down to four routes: Cyso, building your own ops team, generic managed hosting, or a hyperscaler’s managed service. Here is the honest comparison, on the points that decide how it actually feels day to day.

Cyso

Own ops team

Generic managed hosting

Hyperscaler service

Compliance & Support
24/7 NOC and SOC coverage without hiring for it
(Paid add-on)
(Premium tier)
Operations run by employees, nothing subcontracted
(Partner-delivered)
Data and operations stay in the EU, under Dutch and EU law
(Depends where you host)
(Depends on region)
(US CLOUD Act)
Audit evidence maintained as standing output (ISO 27001, NEN 7510)
(You build it)
(Not by default)
(Your responsibility)
One team across network, security, infrastructure and reliability
(Separate specialisms)
(You integrate it)
A clear SLA and a named contact who knows your platform
(Generic SLA)
(Usually no named contact)
Frees your senior engineers to work on product
(You still operate it)

Why teams transfer operations to Cyso

Three outcomes come up again and again across the teams we work with.

Engineering time returns to product work

Patching, monitoring, capacity, backup, DR and incident response no longer sit with your team. Our operations team handles these duties for you. Your senior engineers leave the 24x7 on-call schedule and return to roadmap delivery.

Audit evidence as standing output

Software and OS patching, restore tests, access reviews and incident records are documented as they happen. Cyso stores the records and evidence for you require for your ISO 27001 and NEN 7510 requirements.

EU sovereignty in the contract

Data stays in the EU. Operations performed by Cyso employees in the Netherlands. Dutch and European law. A short, stable sub-processor list. The DPA your customer's legal team receives is one they already approve.

What we handle for your organisation

We keep your platform running, secure, and ready to scale.

24/7 monitoring

Your servers and applications are watched around the clock from our NOC and SOC.

Security and stability updates

Monthly updates applied within agreed maintenance windows, with minimal disruption.

Backup and disaster recovery

Backup management and tested recovery procedures, so you're prepared when it matters.

Capacity management

We monitor resource usage and scale ahead of demand, so performance holds during peak load.

Performance and scalability support

When your platform runs into bottlenecks or scaling challenges, our engineers investigate and advise.

SRE and DevOps support

We assist with reliability engineering, deployment pipelines, and the operational side of your software delivery process.

One team, every layer, to certified standards

Our operations teams bring together engineers across networking, security, infrastructure and platform reliability, working as one unit rather than separate specialisms. NOC and SOC are part of what they do, alongside investigating performance issues, supporting scaling and disaster recovery, and the operational side of your software delivery. Everything runs within agreed procedures and a clear SLA, so expectations on both sides are set from the start.

Cyso holds ISO 27001, NEN 7510 and a SOC 2 statement covering our operational and security processes. The team managing your platform works to the same certified standards your customers or regulators may already require of you.

Cyso has got the following certificates: SOC, NEN 7510, ISO 27001

For teams who want to focus on what they build, not what it runs on

Our managed operations are built for development teams and engineering organisations that run production workloads on Cyso Cloud and want expert operational oversight without building an ops team of their own. We work with SaaS companies, scale-ups and enterprises alike, from teams with no in-house ops to larger organisations topping up their own team with 24/7 coverage and specialist expertise.

  • You run production workloads on Cyso Cloud and want oversight without hiring an ops team
  • Your platform is uptime-sensitive, or under regulatory requirements for availability and data handling
  • You already have an ops team, but want 24/7 coverage and specialist depth on top
  • Your developers would rather ship product than manage infrastructure

Built around Cyso Cloud, open to your stack.

We manage infrastructure running on Cyso Cloud: virtualised environments, containerised workloads, managed Kubernetes clusters, and the network, storage and compute layer underneath. Our tooling covers infrastructure monitoring, log management, alerting, vulnerability scanning and backup orchestration, all configured around your specific environment.

We work alongside your development and platform teams, fitting into your existing workflows and channels. Where you already run tooling, such as a SIEM, an observability platform or an incident management system, we connect to it rather than replace it.
