We build mission-critical applications that stay up — and we keep them that way.
Downtime is not an IT problem. It is lost orders, missed SLAs, breached contracts and a support queue on fire. Five 9 designs, builds and operates highly available applications for businesses where "mostly up" is not good enough. Run it on your infrastructure or your cloud account, or let us host and operate it for you. Either way, one accountable team owns the uptime.
WHAT WE BUILD
Resilient Architecture
Load-balanced, auto-healing application tiers across multiple availability zones or regions. Active-passive or active-active, depending on your target. No single point of failure — including the people.
Database High Availability
Replicated, automatically failing-over databases with tested recovery points. Data loss is the outage nobody recovers from, so this is where we spend the most design time.
Disaster Recovery
Backups that are actually restorable, a second region that is actually warm, and a runbook that has actually been rehearsed. Defined RPO and RTO, verified on a schedule — not assumed.
Observability & Alerting
Metrics, logs and traces wired to alerts a human can act on. You find out about problems before your customers do.
Zero-Downtime Delivery
Blue/green or rolling deployments, infrastructure as code, and automated rollback. Shipping a release should never be the reason you went down.
WHO THIS IS FOR
SaaS & Platform Companies
You sell uptime to your customers whether your contract says so or not. One bad outage costs more than a year of doing it right.
Regulated Industries
Healthcare, financial services, legal and public sector — where availability, recoverability and audit evidence are requirements, not preferences. The on-your-infrastructure model keeps data inside your compliance boundary.
E-commerce & Revenue Systems
Checkout, order management, payments and the integrations behind them. If the system is down, the register is closed.
Teams Without an Operations Bench
You have developers, not a platform team. Hosted by Five 9 gives you enterprise-grade operations without hiring for it.
HOW AN ENGAGEMENT WORKS
Step 1: Free 30-Minute Review
What the application does, what happens to the business when it is down, where it runs today, and what compliance constraints apply.
Step 2: Target & Architecture
We agree an availability target, RPO and RTO, and pick the delivery model. You get a written architecture and a fixed quote before any work starts.
Step 3: Build or Migrate
New builds are engineered for availability from the first commit. Existing applications are re-platformed with a tested cutover plan.
Step 4: Prove It
Failover, restore and load tests run before go-live — with you watching.
Step 5: Operate
Ongoing maintenance under a monthly agreement, with reporting against the target we set in step 2.
