If your business runs Linux servers anywhere in India and needs a managed specialist — remote-first, with onsite backup anywhere in the country — this page is for you.
AV Services has delivered managed Linux infrastructure support across India since 1999. Based in Mumbai, Arun Valecha manages Linux servers for businesses in Bangalore, Delhi, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune, Ahmedabad, and every other city — entirely remote on day-to-day operations, with pan-India onsite response within 24 hours when required.
Indian businesses depend on Linux servers that cannot afford to fail. Financial services, e-commerce, logistics, SaaS, media, and manufacturing companies across India run critical workloads on Linux infrastructure — where every minute of downtime is measurable as lost revenue, lost customers, or lost trust.

AV Services provides what Indian businesses actually need from a Linux server management partner — not a helpdesk that responds after a ticket is reviewed, but a specialist who already knows your server, monitors it continuously, and responds immediately when something requires attention.
Remote response within minutes, nationwide on-site support within 24 hours, and Mumbai on-site within four hours. Available every day of the year including Indian public holidays — because servers do not observe holidays.
Monthly patching cycles keeping your kernel and packages current against the CVE database. Critical vulnerabilities are patched outside the monthly cycle without waiting. Every patch cycle is documented — you know exactly what was updated and when.
SSH hardening, firewall configuration, fail2ban deployment, and user access reviews. A hardened server presents no easy targets to the automated scanners that probe every public IP address continuously. Your server is locked down and monitored.
Automated backups configured to remote destinations — separate from your primary storage. Monthly restore testing so you know the backup actually works before you need it. A backup that has not been tested is not a backup. We test yours every month.
When something breaks — a service crashes, a disk fills, a database goes down — the response begins immediately. Not after a ticket is logged. Not the next business morning. Immediately. Remote resolution handles most incidents within minutes. On-site support is available nationwide within 24 hours when required.
A written monthly health summary delivered to you covering everything done during the maintenance cycle, the current state of the server across all monitored dimensions, and specific recommendations for the coming month. Written in plain English — readable by a non-technical founder or COO without requiring a translation.
Funded startups across India — Series A and B companies in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Delhi, Pune, and Mumbai that have outgrown shared hosting but are not yet at the scale where a full internal DevOps team is warranted. Your engineering team is building the product. AV Services watches the servers.
D2C and e-commerce businesses — Indian online businesses where every minute of downtime is directly measurable as lost revenue. Proactive management prevents the incidents that cost you customers.
Digital agencies across India — agencies that host client applications and websites and need server reliability they can confidently promise to their clients. Your reputation with your clients depends partly on the infrastructure you run their work on.
Established businesses — Indian companies with production Linux infrastructure and no dedicated internal Linux administrator. The server was set up by someone who has since moved on. Nobody is actively watching it. AV Services steps in as the dedicated owner of that infrastructure health.

The first step is a free 30-minute Infrastructure Audit — a read-only assessment of your current Linux server environment that produces a written report within five business days. No write access required. No disruption to your service. No obligation to proceed.
The report tells you precisely where your server stands — what is patched, what is not, what is exposed, what the backup situation actually is, and what the specific risks are in priority order.

The stack behind every managed server
Monitoring
Observium, Nagios, and Cockpit. Continuous monitoring with alerts configured before thresholds become incidents. You find out about problems before your users do.
Backup
rsync and borgbackup. Monthly restore test to a temporary location — not just a check that the job ran. A backup that has not been restored is an assumption, not a backup.
Security
fail2ban, auditd, iptables/ufw/firewalld. Monthly patching via apt or yum. Staged where possible, direct to production with rollback plan where not. SSH access audited every maintenance cycle.
Communication
Dolibarr ticketing for incident history. WhatsApp and Telegram for real-time updates. Monthly maintenance report by email. Per-client config documentation in plain text and wiki — so nothing depends on memory.
Linux server issues rarely stay small for long.
Disk alerts get ignored. Backups quietly fail. RAID arrays degrade without anyone noticing. Then production stops on a Tuesday morning and everyone suddenly wants answers in 15 minutes.
