Services

What we design, build and integrate.

Each practice uses the same rules: tests before release, a written way back for every change, and a handover you can keep.

01 · SQL Server and data

Data systems that must be right.

SQL Server is our core. We design data models, write and tune T-SQL, and put databases under version control with tests.

  • Schema design and data modelling, from first draft to hundreds of tables.
  • T-SQL development: procedures, functions, triggers and constraints.
  • Performance work: query plans, indexing, plan forcing and maintenance.
  • Versioned migrations, automated tests (tSQLt) and schema drift checks.
  • SQL Server 2022 and 2025. PostgreSQL alongside, when one model must run on both.
  • Safe automation: gated scripts with policy checks and a kill switch.

Typical jobs

  • Health check of a slow or fragile database
  • New data model for a line-of-business system
  • Migration path from scripts to versioned releases
  • Integration of data from several sources

02 · Software and integration

Services that connect what you already own.

We build the glue between systems: services, APIs, consoles and workflows that run unattended and report their health.

  • .NET and C#, Blazor web apps, Python, TypeScript and Node.
  • APIs, background services and Windows scheduled services.
  • Workflow engines and message buses (RabbitMQ, Camunda).
  • Single sign-in portals with two-factor authentication.
  • Monitoring and maintenance consoles for PCs and servers.
  • Encrypted data stores for sensitive records.

Typical jobs

  • Connect two systems that do not talk today
  • Replace a manual spreadsheet process with a service
  • Secure remote access to internal tools
  • A dashboard that shows what is running and what failed

03 · Home automation

Home Assistant, done safely.

We design and build Home Assistant systems for homes and estates in Gauteng. Safety-critical devices never switch without a person confirming the action.

  • Home Assistant design, build, migration and audit.
  • Lights, pumps, gates, garage doors, geysers and climate.
  • Local-first control: the house keeps working when the internet is down.
  • Cloud and local device reconciliation (Sonoff eWeLink and others).
  • Node-RED flows, automations and dashboards for phone and tablet.
  • Energy and solar monitoring.
  • Daily backups and a written restore runbook.

Typical jobs

  • Audit of an existing Home Assistant system
  • New installation for a home or estate
  • Clean-up of automations that misfire
  • Safe control rules for gates, geysers and pumps

04 · Media systems

Cameras, music and streaming.

We integrate camera, music and streaming systems so they are reliable and easy to use.

  • IP cameras and network video recorders with Blue Iris.
  • Camera inventory and stream health checks (RTSP).
  • Motion and AI alert tuning to cut false alarms.
  • Self-hosted music servers over HTTPS.
  • Casting to TVs and speakers.
  • Generative music and audio tools.

Typical jobs

  • Make an existing camera system record and alert reliably
  • Remote viewing that stays secure
  • A private music library for the whole house
