11. Documentation & handover
Developer must provide:
Plesk login details
PHP / DB / cache configuration summary
Mail server details
Backup & restore instructions
What not to change
Any known limitations
12. Success criteria (how the job is judged)
After completion:
Faster TTFB and admin performance
Stable WooCommerce checkout
Reliable email delivery
No legacy OS or kernel risk
No stacked caching
Tested backups
Platform ready to scale without re-architecture
One-line summary you can give any developer
“This is a clean rebuild on a new EPYC dedicated server with Plesk Web Pro, followed by a controlled WordPress + mail migration, performance tuning, tested backups, and a low-downtime cutover.”
Current situation (now)
Website and email run on a shared VPS with a legacy Linux stack, Cpanel
Old kernel and mixed configurations increase risk and complexity
WordPress performance is constrained (disk I/O, DB, concurrency)
Caching and email setups are overlapping and inconsistent
Backups and recovery have not been fully tested
Platform is functional but not future-proof
Target situation (where we’re going)
Move to a UK-based dedicated server (AMD EPYC, NVMe, 64GB RAM)
Rebuild on a modern, fully supported Linux OS
Use Plesk Web Pro for clean management of web, email, and backups
Deploy a simplified, deliberate performance stack
Migrate WordPress and email with minimal downtime
Implement tested backups, monitoring, and documentation
End state: faster, safer, scalable, and easier to manage
Everything is working as now, to set specifications.
