Overview
What You Get
24x7x365 Monitoring and Incident Response CirrusHQ monitors your AWS workloads around the clock from our UK-based service desk. We use Amazon CloudWatch for monitoring and alerting, with a 15-minute response target for critical alerts on the 24x7 tier. When something needs attention, our team responds against SLAs agreed with you at onboarding.
Automated Patching and Configuration Management Patching is handled through AWS Systems Manager, keeping your environments current without introducing instability. Patches are applied on schedules aligned to your change windows and workload criticality.
Tested Backup and Recovery Backups are managed through AWS Backup, with recovery procedures tested on a regular schedule rather than left unverified. You know your data is recoverable because we prove it, not just assume it.
Monthly Reporting via the CirrusHQ Acuity Platform Every month you receive a report covering performance, spend, and compliance through the CirrusHQ Acuity platform. You always know exactly what is being managed, how it is performing, and what it costs.
Tiered Service to Match Your Workload Criticality
Service is delivered across defined tiers so you can match the level of operational support to each workload's business importance. SLA levels, communication routes, escalation paths, and key contact points are all agreed during onboarding, giving you a clearly documented engagement model from day one.
Operational Scale You Can Rely On
Our service desk handles around 4,000 tickets a month across our client base, led by architects certified to AWS Solutions Architect Professional and DevOps Engineer Professional. This is not a help desk staffed by generalists. It is a team with deep, specialized AWS expertise.
