Case study

Next.js portal deployed to a college-owned VPS

A student-built portal needed to become a real production system owned by the college, not a fragile local project.

The challenge

The code existed, but production ownership was the hard part: domain, server, database, file storage, analytics, deploy flow, and credentials had to be cleanly handed over.

The solution

Provisioned the VPS, attached the domain, configured HTTPS, connected Postgres and object storage, added analytics, and set up auto-deploy so updates could continue without us.

The outcome

The portal runs on college-owned infrastructure with handover notes and credentials transferred to the team.

Moved from local/student workflow to production server ownership.
Configured database, storage, analytics, SSL, and deploy path.
Handover focused on giving the team operational control.
