Strapi Development in Cambridge
Building with Strapi for Cambridge organisations, where the content management system becomes part of your deployment rather than a service you subscribe to. It is a Node application with a database behind it — so hosting, upgrades, backups and availability are yours, which is the price of the control and the customisation it offers.
Why this comes up
The problem
The CMS was chosen for its flexibility, and nobody was assigned to run the application it turns out to be.
What you get
What we deliver
- Hosting and deployment planned, since this is an application not a service
- Content types modelled for how the content is consumed across front ends
- Customisation done through the documented extension points rather than core edits
- Roles configured for the editorial team and for API access separately
- Upgrade approach agreed, as major versions have involved real migration work
- Backups covering the database and the uploaded media together

Cambridge has the densest deep-tech and biotech cluster in the country, so briefs here are frequently technical from the first conversation and the interesting problems are rarely the obvious ones.

Strapi Development in Cambridge — common questions
- What does self-hosting actually commit us to?
- Running a Node application in production. That means deployment, monitoring, upgrades, database backups and someone available when it stops — all ordinary work, and work that has to be assigned rather than assumed because the software was free to obtain.
- Why avoid editing core files?
- Because upgrades overwrite them. The platform provides extension points for customisation precisely so your changes survive a version bump, whereas edits to the core are lost or conflict — and reapplying them at every release is how upgrades stop happening.
- How significant are major upgrades?
- Historically substantial. Major versions have restructured enough that upgrading is a project rather than a dependency bump, so the version you build on and the plan for moving off it are worth considering at the start rather than at the point of urgency.
- When is this the right choice?
- When you need the content management system to be yours — custom logic, unusual integrations, data that must stay on your infrastructure. Where a hosted service would serve, it usually costs less in total than running an application yourself.
- Do you work with businesses across Cambridgeshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East of England, including Cambridge and the surrounding Cambridgeshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Cambridge businesses do you usually work with?
- Deep-tech and biotech clients bring genuinely technical briefs, often involving data pipelines, instrumentation or research tooling. Beyond that we work across Technology, Life Sciences, Research, Higher Education and Biotech.
- Do you cover the areas around Cambridge?
- Yes — we work throughout East of England, including Norwich, Milton Keynes, London, Northampton. Cambridge is an urban area of roughly 150,000+, and we take on work across the wider Cambridgeshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
