Cloud solutions · AWS

AWS infrastructure that’s secure, observable and sensibly priced.

We design, build and migrate workloads on Amazon Web Services with everything defined in Terraform, least-privilege access from the start and cost visibility built in, so the platform is easy to reason about long after handover.

  • Everything as code with Terraform
  • Security and cost reviewed up front
  • Your accounts, your infrastructure

What we build

Specific deliverables, not vague promises.

Typical pieces of work in this area. Most engagements combine several of them.

  • 01

    Landing zone and account structure

    A multi-account setup with AWS Organizations, centralised logging, guardrails through service control policies and sign-in via IAM Identity Center.

  • 02

    Serverless back ends

    APIs and event-driven workflows on Lambda, API Gateway, EventBridge, SQS and Step Functions, with retries and dead-letter queues designed in.

  • 03

    Container platforms

    Applications on ECS Fargate or EKS with autoscaling, blue/green deployments and secrets read from Secrets Manager rather than environment files.

  • 04

    Migrations to AWS

    Assessment, wave planning and execution for servers, databases and file shares: rehost where that is sensible, refactor where it pays off.

  • 05

    Data stores and global delivery

    RDS and Aurora PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, S3 with lifecycle rules and CloudFront for fast delivery to users wherever they are.

  • 06

    Security hardening

    IAM policy reviews, GuardDuty and Security Hub, encryption at rest and in transit, private subnets and VPC endpoints.

  • 07

    Cost optimisation

    Rightsizing, Savings Plans analysis, storage tiering and consistent tagging so every team can see what it spends.

How we work

A clear path from first conversation to production.

  1. Weeks 1–2

    Assess

    Review current workloads, risks and costs, then agree the target architecture and what success looks like.

  2. Foundation

    Foundation

    Build the landing zone, networking, identity and an infrastructure pipeline, all in Terraform.

  3. Waves

    Build or migrate

    Deliver workloads in small waves with rollback plans, starting with the lowest-risk systems.

  4. Go-live

    Operate

    Dashboards, alarms and runbooks in CloudWatch or Grafana, plus a handover session for your team.

  5. Ongoing

    Optimise

    Periodic cost and security reviews, applied as code changes with a clear audit trail.

Technologies we use

Proven, well-supported tools, chosen for your context rather than for novelty.

  • Terraform
  • Lambda
  • ECS / Fargate
  • EKS
  • RDS / Aurora
  • DynamoDB
  • CloudFront
  • CloudWatch

Typical outcomes

  • Infrastructure you can rebuild from code in a new account or region
  • A clear, auditable security posture with least-privilege access
  • Cloud spend that is visible, attributed and easier to forecast
  • Fewer late-night incidents, thanks to alarms and runbooks that get used

Outcomes depend on your starting point; we agree success measures with you up front.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can’t find what you’re looking for? Ask us directly. We’re happy to talk it through.

It depends on the workload. Spiky, event-driven work usually suits Lambda; long-running services, steady traffic or existing Docker apps usually suit ECS Fargate. We often combine both, and we explain the trade-offs in cost, cold starts and operational effort before you decide.
