Services · Managed hosting
Your instance runs on infrastructure we operate: monitored, patched, backed up daily, with point-in-time recovery available on the continuous tier and a region you choose. Upgrades are tested against your customisations before they touch production.
The work
ERP is straightforward to install and genuinely hard to run well. The platform is a Python application over MariaDB with a background job queue, a websocket layer for realtime updates and a scheduler that quietly depends on both being healthy. None of that is exotic. It is the standard burden of operating a production database application, and it belongs with whoever does it for a living.
Managed hosting moves that burden to us. Your instance is single-tenant, in a residency region you choose, monitored around the clock, and backed up daily, with continuous backup and point-in-time recovery available as an upgrade. Version upgrades are staged against your actual customisations in a mirroring environment before they ever reach production. The upgrade-safety problem that haunts self-hosted AlpineERP is a process problem, and the process is ours to run.
What you get
Named up front so the engagement has a definition of done.
Your database, your app server, your region. No shared tenancy means no noisy neighbour, no cross-customer blast radius, and a performance envelope you can reason about.
Daily backup as standard, continuous backup with point-in-time recovery on the tier above, and restores we actually test rather than assume. A backup that has never been restored is a hypothesis, not a control.
Every AlpineERP and Frappe release lands in a staging mirror running your custom apps first. You get a compatibility report and a maintenance window, not a Friday outage.
Job queues, scheduler heartbeats, replication lag and error rates watched 24/7, with incident response measured in minutes. Infrastructure alerts page us, not you.
Pricing
No day rates and no sticker price. The estimate is derived from your situation. Each answer moves it, and anything genuinely unusual is scoped rather than guessed.
Estimated managed hosting cost
$240
per user / month
Per-user pricing only: a dedicated instance, backups, monitoring and upgrades are all included.
Platform plans are priced separately on the pricing page. This estimate covers the managed hosting itself.
Questions
Yes. It is GPL-licensed software and we will help you stand it up elsewhere, including on your own hardware. You lose staged-against-your-customisations upgrades and the pager, and you should only take that on with a team that runs production databases anyway.
EU, US, UK, UAE, India and Australia today, with more added on request. Residency requirements are contractual: private deployments can be pinned to a jurisdiction or to your own cloud account.
Minor releases are near-zero-downtime and applied monthly. Major AlpineERP versions are applied two to four times a year in a maintenance window you approve, after staging validation, typically thirty minutes, scheduled outside your operating hours.
Single-tenant by construction: separate database, separate app server, no shared state. Backups are encrypted at rest and scoped per instance; export on request at any time.
