Reliable infrastructure, repeatable releases
We design, migrate and run cloud infrastructure on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and DigitalOcean. The aim is simple: systems that stay up, releases that are routine and a cloud bill you understand.
Much of the cloud trouble we see comes from infrastructure set up by hand, years ago, by someone who has since left. Nobody is quite sure what each server does, releases are nervous events and the monthly bill keeps creeping up. We start by documenting what you have, then bring it under control with infrastructure as code so every environment can be rebuilt from a repository.
For releases we build CI/CD pipelines that run tests, build containers and deploy to staging and production automatically, with easy rollback. Where it is warranted we use Docker and Kubernetes; where it is not, simpler managed services are cheaper and easier to run. We will recommend the least complex setup that meets your reliability needs. Pipelines, environments and deployment steps are documented, so your own team can release with confidence without depending on us.
We also handle migrations from on-premises servers or between cloud providers, planned to minimise downtime. Monitoring, alerting, backups and tested restore procedures are set up as standard, and we review costs so you are not paying for idle capacity. All of this lives in accounts in your name, with access you control. We use least-privilege permissions, multi-factor authentication and secrets management, so access can be granted and revoked cleanly as people join and leave.
What we deliver
Cloud architecture
A documented design for hosting, networking, security and scaling, matched to your needs and budget.
Cloud migration
Planned moves from on-premises or another provider, with rehearsed cut-overs and rollback plans.
Infrastructure as code
Terraform definitions so environments are versioned, reviewable and reproducible.
CI/CD pipelines
Automated testing and deployment through GitHub Actions or GitLab CI.
Containers and orchestration
Docker images and Kubernetes clusters where the workload justifies them.
Monitoring, backups and cost review
Alerting, log collection, tested restores and regular checks on cloud spend.
From brief to launch
The same five stages on every project, with a working demo every two weeks.
Discover
We learn your business, users and goals, then agree a clear written scope.
Design
Wireframes and interactive prototypes you can click through before we write code.
Build
Two-week sprints with a working demo at the end of each one.
Launch
Testing, security checks, deployment and app-store submission handled for you.
Grow
Monitoring, support and new features as your users and business grow.
Cloud & DevOps questions
Which cloud provider should we use?
AWS, Azure and Google Cloud are all capable. The right choice usually depends on your existing tools, your team's skills, data residency requirements and cost, and we set out the comparison for your case.
Do we need Kubernetes?
Often not. Kubernetes is powerful but adds operating overhead. For many applications, managed container services or platform services are simpler and cheaper.
Can you reduce our cloud bill?
We review usage, right-size resources, remove idle capacity and suggest reserved pricing where it makes sense. The saving depends on how the account has been run so far.
Will we have full access to the infrastructure?
Yes. Everything is created in cloud accounts you own, and the Terraform code is in your repository.
How do you move us to the cloud without downtime?
We rehearse the migration in advance, copy and sync data before the switch, and plan the cut-over for a quiet period with a tested rollback plan. Some systems need a short maintenance window, which we agree with you beforehand.
What is CI/CD and why does it matter?
It means every code change is automatically tested and deployed through a consistent pipeline. Releases become smaller, more frequent and less risky, and nobody has to deploy by hand from their own machine.
How do you handle backups and disaster recovery?
We set up automated backups with retention periods, store copies separately from the main system and test restores regularly. We agree recovery targets with you so the setup matches how much downtime and data loss the business can tolerate.
Can you look after our infrastructure on an ongoing basis?
Yes. We can monitor, patch and improve your environments under a support plan, or train your team and hand over the runbooks and Terraform code so you can run it yourselves.
How do you keep cloud environments secure?
We apply least-privilege access, separate environments, encryption, network controls, secret management and audit logging, and review the setup against the provider's published security best practices.
Can you work with our in-house developers?
Yes. We often build the pipelines and infrastructure alongside your developers and document everything, so they can deploy confidently and make changes without depending on us.
