Hosting and operation of custom software in Europe

Software is only finished when it runs reliably. We operate your application on servers in Europe, with the same people who built it.

Development and operations from one source

Many agencies hand over a package after the project and are gone. Operations end up with a hoster who does not know the application, or with your IT department, which has other priorities. We do it differently: the applications we build, we also operate on request. The same developers who know the code see monitoring, logs and backups.

That pays off when something happens. An error at 7 a.m. is not reported to a ticket system but read by someone who knows which query is behind it.

What operations include at oxalis

  • Infrastructure in data centres in Germany and Europe, with providers under European law.
  • Monitoring of availability, response times, storage and error rates, with alerts to us.
  • Backups daily or more often, encrypted, regularly tested for restoration.
  • Updates for operating system, database and runtime, coordinated with you.
  • Security: TLS, access control, tenant separation, logging.
  • A named contact with a phone number and agreed response times.

We operate PostgreSQL and Go applications, Vue.js and Flutter front ends, as well as Oracle APEX applications. More on the technology page.

Data sovereignty is not a marketing term

European hosting means three things to us. First: your data sits with providers subject exclusively to European law. Second: you receive a data processing agreement that fits your privacy policy. Third: nothing about our operations ties you to us. Code, database and configuration belong to you and run on standard technology. If you want to move, we help.

With potpuri.eu we have operated a workplace health management platform for years, on which employees enter personal information. That only works with an infrastructure the clients’ data protection officers trust.

Who this is for

Companies that have or are getting a custom application and do not want to run it themselves. Business departments that need one contact who understands both the application and the infrastructure. Organisations where data protection is non-negotiable: health data, HR data, public-sector data.

Frequently asked questions

Where are the servers located?

In data centres in Germany and Europe, with providers operating under European law. Which location makes sense for your application depends on the type of data, availability requirements and your own policies. We define that together and record it in the data processing agreement.

What is the difference from a hyperscaler?

A hyperscaler gives you infrastructure but no contact who knows your application. With us, the developers who built the application also look after its operation. Then there is the legal side: European providers are not subject to laws that can grant third countries access to your data.

Am I tied to oxalis if you host my application?

No. The code is yours, the database is yours, and the application runs on standard technology. If you want to move to another provider or into your own data centre, we support the move. Avoiding dependencies includes dependency on us.

Do you also operate applications that oxalis did not develop?

In individual cases, yes, mainly Oracle APEX and PostgreSQL applications that we take over and keep developing. We do not offer pure hosting without a development relationship, because the value of our operations lies in knowing the application.

What about availability and backups?

Backups run daily, more often if required, and are regularly tested for restorability. Monitoring reports outages and anomalies to us before users notice them. Availability commitments and response times are agreed per application in an operations contract.
