About the technology
Operate the CMS, extensions and infrastructure together
TYPO3 projects depend on the core version, PHP, the database, extensions, search services, mail delivery and the deployment process. These dependencies must remain compatible through every update.
We take over new or existing installations, document the technical estate and establish a controlled path for releases, maintenance and recovery.
TYPO3 in production operations
Multilingual content
Model websites, page trees and editorial processes for multiple languages and audiences.Roles and workspaces

Monitor and update the application and its technical dependencies and operate them under the agreed service level.
Operations beyond installation
Operate TYPO3 as a maintainable enterprise CMS
Core, extensions, templates, database, search and deployment pipeline must follow one tested release and recovery process.
CMS platform
Operate TYPO3, PHP runtime and background jobs on supported versions.Extensions and interfaces

As an alternative to managed hosting in the data centre, WZ-IT provides the hardware, configures TYPO3, and handles hardening, monitoring, updates, backup and technical support. Access can be limited to the internal network or enabled through VPN and existing identities.
View WZ-IT App Node →Sizing and deployment
Size TYPO3 by traffic, editors and extensions
Page complexity, cache hit rate, search, imports, media and editorial concurrency determine capacity.
| Usage scenario | Technical starting point | Key factors |
|---|---|---|
| Corporate website with normal traffic | S or M | Supported core, standard extensions and predictable editorial load. |
| Multiple sites and editor teams | M or L | Languages, workspaces, search and background jobs are considered. |
| Campaign peaks or heavy integrations | Load assessment | Cache, CDN, imports and external dependencies are tested. |
| Business-critical web platform | HA and recovery design | Deployment, redundancy and recovery objectives are agreed. |
- Major upgrades, unusual extensions, high availability and complex migrations are assessed separately.

Reviews & projects
Client feedback and projects worldwide
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.

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.
