Do you also build the app?

Often. Deployment on its own is for teams who already have a build.

How long is a go-live?

The cutover can be hours. The plan takes longer. That is the point.

What about DNS downtime?

We plan TTL and cutover. We will not pretend DNS is instant everywhere.

Will you stay after launch?

The first hours yes. Ongoing ops is VPS, cloud or a support agreement.

Application Deployment in London

Application deployment for London teams that need a site or product live — DNS, TLS, environments and a release — without a weekend of folklore.

Deployments that are a plan, not a hope

Design Dev ships applications for UK teams: DNS, TLS, environments, data and a go-live that has a rollback. We have seen the Friday night “just FTP it” version. We do not do that.

Go-live plans

DNS, TLS, data and who is on the call.

Zero-heroics releases

A path you can run again next month.

Rollback written down

If it is bad, we go back.

Post-launch checks

The app is not “done” when the URL resolves.

A clear deployment process from freeze to live URL

Freeze the scope

What is in this go-live. What waits.

Prepare environments

Target host, TLS, env vars and data.

Rehearse

Staging that looks enough like production.

Go live

DNS, release, checks. Someone watching.

Watch and handover

The first hours, then a runbook.

Deployment is a project, not a button you remember

Applications fail at go-live because DNS, data and env vars were folklore. Design Dev treats application deployment as a plan with a rehearsal and a rollback.

Written go-live plans
Rehearsed releases
DNS and TLS done properly

Post-launch checks

Start a project

Complete application deployment capabilities

Go-lives for web apps, WordPress and stores — planned, rehearsed and reversible.

New product go-lives

First time on a real domain.

Replatform deploys

Old URL to new stack without a weekend myth.

WordPress and store launches

When content and checkout have to work at once.

App releases

Laravel, Node and similar with a repeatable path.

DNS and TLS

The boring parts that take sites down when skipped.

Rollback and freeze

When the launch should wait.
