Layer7 works with Toronto businesses and delivery partners that need senior infrastructure depth for one change: a platform move, a cloud or hybrid migration, an application deployment, a connectivity cutover, or the recovery of something that has already broken.
Toronto teams often move quickly, and the infrastructure underneath does not always get the same attention as the product.
Layer7 is useful when a change needs someone who can read the dependencies, prepare and test the destination, run the cutover with abort conditions, and stay through validation.
Different environments, one operating promise: map the dependencies, prepare and test the destination, agree the rollback, control the cutover, validate, stabilize.
Site and database moves between hosts, VPS or managed hosting, with the DNS, TLS and backup work that decides whether the move sticks.
Destination preparation and Docker or application deployment for database-backed workloads that have to run reliably from day one.
AWS, Azure, GCP, on-premises and hybrid workload and connectivity moves, planned around the routing and security dependencies that usually get missed.
Bounded diagnosis and a recovery plan for a service that is unstable, partially down, or was never properly finished.
Platform, hosting and cloud migrations for live services
Linux/VPS, Docker and database-backed application deployment
Routing, DNS, firewall and load-balancer cutover planning
