Infrastructure Design for SMB

A practical architecture model focused on high uptime, lower licensing costs, and predictable operations.

What Our Standard Design Looks Like

We design infrastructure as modular layers: compute, storage, network, identity, security, and monitoring. This provides easier scaling, faster recovery, and clearer operational cost control.

Core Layer
  • Proxmox cluster + Proxmox Backup Server
  • VLAN segmentation with OPNSense perimeter security
  • SSO and role-based access with Keycloak/LDAP/AD
Operations Layer
  • Zabbix + Prometheus monitoring and alerting
  • Patch management with controlled maintenance windows
  • Documented DR procedures and restore testing

Why This Saves Money

Financial impact comes from combining open-source platforms with reduced downtime and fewer reactive support costs.

  • Lower dependency on expensive per-user and per-server licenses
  • Fewer lost working hours during outages and incidents
  • Predictable monthly OPEX instead of frequent emergency spending
  • Higher ROI from existing hardware and infrastructure

Why Uptime Improves

Prevention

Early issue detection through continuous monitoring and capacity alerting, before business impact occurs.

Recovery

Snapshot and backup strategies, validated restore procedures, and clear incident runbooks for faster return to service.

The business outcome is straightforward: fewer interruptions, more productive teams, and controlled long-term IT costs.
