01Current hosting and dependency reviewA review of the present host, domain and DNS control, SSL, forms, email records, databases, third-party services, access credentials and known maintenance responsibilities. The scope should identify unknowns instead of assuming they are covered.
02Performance and accessibility reviewA practical examination of important pages, media, scripts, caching opportunities and intake routes, with attention to visitors using slower connections or mobile devices. Findings should distinguish hosting changes from content, design or code changes.
03Migration and cutover planA written review of the proposed move, including site files, database, DNS, SSL, email records, testing, approval points and post-cutover verification. Bosseo’s reference describes migration support; exact implementation details should be confirmed for the firm’s site.
04Backup and recovery reviewA discussion of daily backup coverage, retention, restoration responsibility, access and verification. The firm should receive clear answers about what is included and what depends on an outside provider.
05Security responsibility mapA practical allocation of responsibility for patching, hardening, certificates, monitoring, firewall and DDoS protection, access and incident communication.
06Continuity decision briefA concise comparison of the current arrangement and the proposed hosting arrangement, including operational dependencies, unresolved questions, migration considerations and the firm’s approval decision.
