Architecture and migration
Sizing, target environment, data transfer, cutover and recovery are resolved before production operations.

WZ-IT plans, installs and operates Postgres as managed hosting, in your cloud or on premises. Depending on the target design, we also provide migration, secure network and identity integration, monitoring, backups, updates, integrations and further development.
Companies worldwide trust WZ-IT
The following are trademarks of their respective owners: PostgreSQL (the PostgreSQL Global Development Group). WZ-IT is an independent service provider and has no business, partnership, or contractual relationship with these companies. We offer independent migration, installation, hosting, and operations services.

PostgreSQL is an object-relational open-source database system for transactional applications, data platforms and custom extensions. Availability and performance depend on schema, queries, workload and operating architecture.
We support PostgreSQL design, implementation, migration, optimisation and maintenance, including replication, backup, restore testing and monitoring.
We install, host and operate PostgreSQL for your company - either on our secure, privacy-focused infrastructure in Germany or other locations, as well as on-premise in your own environment.
We provide 24/7 monitoring, backups and maintenance for your PostgreSQL instance. Human response times and support coverage follow the selected service level.
Designed for maximum data safety and integrity with robust crash recovery mechanisms, write-ahead logging, and point-in-time recovery.
Supports the ACID properties of atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability for transactional applications.
Implements the SQL standard with numerous extensions such as common table expressions, window functions, and materialized views.
Offers native support for JSON/JSONB data types and enables the combination of relational and document-oriented data storage.
Leverage the extensive ecosystem of extensions such as PostGIS for spatial data, TimescaleDB for time series data, or pgVector for AI applications.
Streaming replication, logical replication, and multi-master solutions enable highly available and geographically distributed systems.
Powerful indexing options, parallel query processing, and sophisticated query optimization for fast data operations.
Provides row-level security, advanced authentication methods, SSL support, and detailed access controls.
Benefit from a rich ecosystem of tools for administration, monitoring, backup, and migration, as well as numerous client libraries.

We set up secure VPN access to your installation - ideal for remote work and external employees.
Full-service installation with no hidden costs
We do more than provide an application. WZ-IT designs the technical architecture, integrates network and identity, operates the agreed scope and develops integrations when the standard product is not enough.
Sizing, target environment, data transfer, cutover and recovery are resolved before production operations.
SSO, secure access, internal systems and existing security components are integrated appropriately.
Updates, backups, technical monitoring and response paths follow a transparent operational scope.
APIs, automation and custom extensions can be delivered beyond basic deployment.
The exact scope depends on the application, edition, infrastructure and criticality. Vendor licences and non-standard components are quoted separately.
Data platforms are designed around access patterns, consistency, growth, recovery and the applications that depend on them.
Defined clients, services and ingestion processes connect through private or secured interfaces.
TLS, firewall rules, reverse proxies or private network paths are designed around the platform's exposure.
Local accounts, SSO, directories, service accounts and emergency access are connected through clear roles.
Queries, indexes, roles, resource limits and maintenance processes are configured for the workload.
Storage class, capacity, latency and growth aligned with the data profile.
Optional cluster, replica or failover design according to the required protection objective.
Consistent backups, retention and scheduled restore checks.
The diagram is a resilient target model. Its implementation depends on edition, data flows, load, availability objectives and existing infrastructure.
A clearly defined operating scope instead of an opaque hosting flat fee.
We set up a test instance for you, usually on the next business day. No payment details required. After seven days it is deleted unless you continue.
Compute, applications, storage and response are shown separately. You can see what ongoing operations include and which requirements need a technical assessment.
We also design custom PostgreSQL architectures, integrations and migrations. Contact us for a technical assessment.
One managed standard PostgreSQL application is included in the Starter workload. Business and higher levels add a flexible operations allowance for planned work during regular service hours. Select compute, additional applications, storage and the appropriate service level.
A workload is one compute instance with the applications agreed for it.
One standard app per workload is already included. Additional dedicated servers count as separate workloads.
€7.99 excl. VAT per additional 100 GB per month, including daily encrypted offsite backup with 7-day retention. Billing is based on provisioned capacity, not actual usage.
We also implement custom backup schedules and retention periods. For example: daily backups retained for 30 days and one monthly backup retained for 12 months. Scope, storage requirements and additional costs are agreed separately.
+€299 excluding VAT per workload and month
Standard hosting runs on a single instance without high availability. Availability for custom architectures is agreed separately.
Zero downtime on request
Distributed operation with several instances, a database cluster and rolling updates, so that a node failure causes no interruption. Only for applications suited to it; design and price after technical assessment.
This page covers installation and the agreed platform operations for PostgreSQL. Custom code, the access layer and special confidentiality requirements remain clearly separated responsibilities that can be added when needed.
Maintain the application
Keep custom extensions, interfaces and dependencies controlled, updated and supportable.

Briefly describe the current state and objective for PostgreSQL. We assess infrastructure, integration, and ongoing operations.
As an alternative to managed hosting in the data centre, WZ-IT provides the hardware, configures PostgreSQL, and handles hardening, monitoring, updates, backup and technical support. Access can be limited to the internal network or enabled through VPN and existing identities.

We size PostgreSQL clusters based on workload profiles, recovery objectives, availability requirements and measurable performance targets. Architecture and operating scope are defined for the specific application.

No risk: worst case, you leave with a clearer understanding of your project than before.


“WZ-IT's advice on our Azure migration was technically sound and completely non-binding right from the intro call - we took away a great deal.”
“WZ-IT moved our studio infrastructure from decentralised individual devices to a central platform: every site is securely connected via VPN, new devices are onboarded automatically and an entire site is provisioned from a template, without manual steps on location. What impressed me most is the breadth and depth of their knowledge: Timo and Robin are not a typical IT provider who sets up a server and leaves. The two of them think their way into highly complex infrastructure and software topics, work through every requirement we put in front of them, and build networking, provisioning and operations so that everything fits together in the end. WZ-IT is an excellent partner for complex software, network and architecture projects.”
