Managed Axoniq services POD
Your Axon Server, managed by certified Axoniq experts For companies that don't have the in-house capacity to operate Axoniq infrastructure at enterprise grade.
talk to salesThe gap
Axoniq is now the standard for event-driven, AI-ready backends. But most mid-market engineering teams don't have spare capacity to run it at scale. Maxima manages the operational layer so your developers stay focused on the domain logic that Axoniq is designed to let them write.
This service is for companies that are:
Running Axon Framework and Axon Server in production, but stretched on ops capacity
Adopting Axoniq for the first time and want managed infrastructure from day one
Facing compliance requirements (audit trail, SOC 2, regulatory reporting) that depend on the event store being correctly managed
Scaling their event-sourced system and seeing performance issues that need Axon-specific expertise to resolve
What Maxima manages
Six core service areas, delivered by certified Axon experts and Maxima SREs.
Axon Server cluster operations
Cluster provisioning, configuration, context management, upgrades, patching, and backup policy. Maxima SREs own the full operational lifecycle of your Axon Server environment on all clouds.
Monitoring, alerting & Insights
Full observability built on Axoniq Console and Axoniq Insights. Event flow visibility, replay monitoring, performance dashboards, and custom alerting. Complex issues, including replay failures and event processor lag, resolved without API diving.
24/7 incident response
Maxima SREs on-call around the clock with defined response time commitments by severity. Incident triage, root cause analysis, and post-incident review for every P1 and P2. Monthly ops report with trend data and recommendations.
Axon Framework advisory
Ongoing architecture reviews covering Axon Framework versioning, Dynamic Consistency Boundaries (DCB) design, Event Modeling sessions, CQRS query model optimisation, and Axon Synapse integration for AI/ML workloads.
Migration to Axoniq
For companies not yet on the Axon stack: Maxima architects design the migration path from state-based CRUD or monolithic systems to an immutable, event-sourced architecture, followed by direct handover into managed operations.
AI agent infrastructure
Maxima connects your LLMs to Axoniq, giving AI agents secure, governed access to your complete business event history relevant for companies using Axoniq as the long-term memory layer for agentic workflows.
Self-managed vs managed by Maxima
Running Axon Server yourself is viable if your SRE team has dedicated Axoniq capacity. Most teams don't.
Capability
Self-managed
Managed by Maxima
Cluster provisioning
Your DevOps team, learning Axon Server specifics on the job
Designed and deployed by certified Axon Server engineers
Upgrades & patching
Manual, requires reading Axoniq release notes and scheduling downtime
Handled by Maxima on your agreed maintenance window, tested in staging first
Monitoring & alerting
Generic infrastructure monitoring often misses Axon-specific failure modes
Axoniq Console + Insights stack, tuned to event processor lag, replay health, and context integrity
Replay management
Manual API calls. High risk if done incorrectly at scale
Managed via Axoniq Console with pre-validated runbooks for safe, auditable replays
24/7 incident response
Whoever is on-call. Often not an Axoniq specialist
Maxima SRE on-call with Axon Server expertise and defined SLAs per severity
Performance optimization
Reactive, identified after production degradation
Proactive via Axoniq Insights, spot bottlenecks before they surface
Availability SLA
No formal SLA, best effort
Target with documented response time commitments
In-house Axoniq expertise required
Yes, and it's hard to hire
No, Maxima supplies the expertise as part of the service
Compliance & audit support
Your team assembles evidence from multiple sources
Audit-ready event log, forensic-grade audit trail, and ops reporting included
Built for complexity-heavy industries
Axoniq was designed for domains where state is complex, auditability is non-negotiable, and systems must evolve without discarding history.
What Axoniq customers say
How the engagement works
From first call to live managed operations.
Discovery & maturity assessment
Maxima architects review your current Axon Server setup, cluster configuration, event store size, Axon Framework version, and operational gaps. We identify what needs to be fixed before we take over ongoing operations and scope the managed service accordingly.
Onboarding & infrastructure hardening
We implement the monitoring stack, establish runbooks, validate backup and recovery policies, and configure alerting. If a migration is required first, this phase extends accordingly. We set the availability baseline before handing over on-call responsibility.
Handover & SLA activation
Maxima SREs go live on 24/7 on-call. Your team retains full access to all environments and tooling. We operate as a transparent extension of your engineering org. SLA reporting begins from the first full month.
Monthly ops review & continuous optimisation
Each month: uptime data, incident summary, performance trends from Axoniq Insights, and proactive recommendations. Quarterly architecture reviews cover Axon Framework evolution, DCB design, and scaling requirements.
