Cloud and DevOps technologies for dependable, repeatable releases
Good infrastructure is mostly invisible: releases go out without drama, backups work when needed and costs stay predictable. We set up hosting, containers and automated pipelines sized to your actual traffic rather than to a hypothetical future.
Cloud & DevOps we work with
Amazon Web Services
The broadest public cloud platform for hosting, data and serverless workloads.

Learn moreCloudflare
A global edge network for DNS, CDN, security and serverless functions.
Learn moreDocker
Container tooling that packages applications to run the same everywhere.
Learn moreKubernetes
An orchestration platform for running containerised applications across clusters.
Learn moreTerraform
Infrastructure as code: define cloud resources in version-controlled files.
Learn moreGitHub Actions
CI/CD built into GitHub for testing, building and deploying code automatically.
Learn moreGitLab CI/CD
GitLab's integrated pipelines for building, testing and deploying software.
Learn moreCloud providers such as AWS, Google Cloud and Azure offer managed databases, storage, queues and compute, while simpler platforms such as DigitalOcean suit smaller workloads at lower cost. Docker packages an application so it runs the same everywhere, and Kubernetes orchestrates many containers across servers. Terraform describes infrastructure as code so environments can be recreated and reviewed. CI/CD tools such as GitHub Actions and GitLab CI run tests and deploy automatically on every change, and Cloudflare adds caching and protection at the edge.
We match infrastructure to the size and risk of the system. A single well-configured server or a managed platform is often enough and far cheaper to run than a Kubernetes cluster. We reach for container orchestration when you have many services, variable load or strict availability targets. If your organisation already standardises on one cloud provider, we will normally build there to fit your existing security, billing and support arrangements.
Cloud & DevOps questions
Which cloud provider should we use?
AWS, Google Cloud and Azure are all capable. The deciding factors are usually your existing agreements, the managed services you need and your team's familiarity, rather than raw capability.
Do we need Kubernetes?
Often not. Kubernetes adds operational overhead that pays off with many services or demanding scaling needs; smaller systems are usually better served by managed platforms or simple container hosting.
Will we own the infrastructure and accounts?
Yes. We set up infrastructure in accounts you control and document it as code, so you are never locked in to us.
What is CI/CD and do we need it?
Continuous integration and delivery means every code change is automatically tested and deployed through a pipeline, using tools such as GitHub Actions or GitLab CI/CD. It makes releases routine and reduces the risk of human error.
What is infrastructure as code?
It means servers, networks and databases are defined in files, typically with Terraform, instead of being set up by hand. The setup can be reviewed, repeated for a new environment and rebuilt if something goes wrong.
How do you keep cloud costs under control?
We size resources to real usage, use managed services where they save effort, switch off idle environments and set budget alerts. We review the bill with you rather than letting it grow unnoticed.
How do you monitor applications in production?
We set up error tracking, centralised logs, uptime checks and alerts on key metrics, so problems are spotted and diagnosed quickly, ideally before users report them.
Why package applications with Docker?
Docker containers make the application run the same way on a developer's laptop, in testing and in production. That removes a common source of release problems and makes moving between hosts much easier.
Do you set up separate staging and production environments?
Yes. Changes are tested in a staging environment that mirrors production before they go live, and demos can run on staging so you review features without affecting real users.
What does Cloudflare add to our setup?
Cloudflare provides DNS, a content delivery network, a web application firewall and DDoS protection in front of your application. Configured carefully, it makes sites faster and blocks a lot of malicious traffic.
