Think of online application support like maintaining a car. If you don't check the oil, fix small issues, or keep it clean, it'll break down. The same goes for apps — supporting an app means keeping it running, fixing problems, updating it, and making sure users are happy.

Every business depends on software for daily tasks. But what happens when your provider stops offering support? For a company like a pharmacy chain with 40 branches, this could cause serious disruption — here's how to prepare.

There is a particular kind of business nightmare that plays out quietly, without alarms or dramatic failures. Your WordPress website looks fine when you visit it.

Open your website in Google Chrome right now. Look at the address bar.

Your deployment pipeline just stopped. The error message references a Docker Compose file, something about version incompatibility, a service that cannot find its dependency, or a volume mount that suddenly refuses to work.

It is Friday afternoon. Your lead developer has finished a critical bug fix that customers have been requesting for two weeks.

Your cloud bill arrived, and for the third consecutive quarter it is higher than projected. What started as an affordable $200 per month on AWS has grown into a $3,500 monthly expense that your finance team is questioning.

You have invested in quality content, built a professional website, and established genuine expertise in your industry. But when you compare your search rankings against competitors with objectively weaker content, they consistently appear above you.

Your mobile application needs a backend. Your frontend needs to fetch and update data reliably.

Your Java application worked fine with a hundred users. Now it serves ten thousand, and the experience has degraded noticeably.

Your Java application started as a clean, well-organized monolith. Over the years, it accumulated features, integrations, and business logic until it became a million-line behemoth that takes twenty minutes to compile, thirty minutes to test, and requires a full team coordination meetin...

Your monitoring alert fires: server load average has crossed 20 on an 8-core machine. The website is crawling.

Your application restarts fix the problem — temporarily. Memory usage starts at a healthy 40% after a restart, then climbs steadily: 50% after a day, 65% after three days, 80% after a week.

Your server is down. Right now.

Here is a question that should make every business owner uncomfortable: when was the last time you successfully restored your backup? Not when was the last time a backup job completed.
