Cloud Solutions That Are Built to Operate
Most cloud migrations fail at the second step — running it. We design landing zones, migrate applications in safe waves, and set up the FinOps and operational practices that keep cloud spend predictable and platforms easy to live with.
Our Cloud Services
From first landing zone through ongoing FinOps — practical engagements across the cloud lifecycle
Cloud Migration
We move applications and data from on-premises or legacy hosting into AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud — in waves of related workloads, with cutover plans, rollback procedures, and hypercare. We pick the right migration pattern for each application instead of forcing everything through the same template.
- ✓6 Rs portfolio analysis and wave planning
- ✓Rehost (lift-and-shift) and replatform migrations
- ✓Database and large-data migrations with minimal downtime
- ✓Cutover orchestration and rollback procedures
- ✓Post-migration hypercare and stabilization
Cloud-Native Development
Net-new applications built to take advantage of managed services — serverless compute, managed databases, event streaming, and identity. We default to managed services when they fit, and only build custom infrastructure when there's a clear reason to.
- ✓Serverless architectures (Lambda, Azure Functions, Cloud Run)
- ✓Event-driven design (EventBridge, Service Bus, Pub/Sub)
- ✓Managed databases and caching (RDS, Cosmos DB, Spanner)
- ✓API Gateway, identity, and authorization patterns
- ✓12-factor application design and observability
Containers & Kubernetes
We design and run Kubernetes platforms that your engineering team can actually operate. Sensible defaults, golden paths, and platform abstractions that hide complexity instead of inflicting it on application teams.
- ✓EKS, AKS, and GKE cluster design and hardening
- ✓GitOps workflows with ArgoCD or Flux
- ✓Service mesh (Istio, Linkerd) when justified
- ✓Helm chart libraries and platform engineering
- ✓Container image supply-chain security (Sigstore, SBOMs)
Cloud Security & Compliance
Security has to be part of the platform, not bolted on. We design landing zones with guardrails, implement continuous compliance scanning, and run threat modeling workshops with your engineers so secure-by-default becomes the path of least resistance.
- ✓Landing zone guardrails (SCPs, Azure Policy, Org Policies)
- ✓Identity federation and least-privilege IAM design
- ✓Continuous compliance scanning (CIS, NIST, HIPAA, PCI)
- ✓Secret management and KMS-backed encryption
- ✓Threat modeling and incident response playbooks
FinOps & Cost Optimization
We help organizations move from surprise cloud bills to predictable, well-understood spend. That means tagging discipline, allocation and chargeback, anomaly alerting, and a steady cadence of right-sizing and savings-plan reviews — backed by real reporting your finance team trusts.
- ✓Tagging strategy and allocation reporting
- ✓Right-sizing and reserved-capacity / savings-plan analysis
- ✓Anomaly detection and unit-economics reporting
- ✓Storage lifecycle and idle-resource automation
- ✓Engineering-to-finance partnership coaching
Reliability & Observability
Knowing your platform is broken before your customers do is a discipline, not a tool. We instrument applications with OpenTelemetry, build SLO-driven dashboards, and stand up incident response practices that improve every postmortem.
- ✓OpenTelemetry instrumentation across services
- ✓SLO definition, error budgets, and alerting
- ✓Centralized logging, tracing, and metrics platforms
- ✓Game days and chaos-engineering practices
- ✓Incident response playbooks and blameless postmortems

How a Cloud Engagement Runs
A transparent, four-phase methodology — here is exactly what happens when you migrate or modernize with us
Cloud Readiness Assessment
Week 1–3Every successful migration starts with an honest look at where you are today. We inventory your applications, classify them by migration pattern (rehost, replatform, refactor, or retire), and identify the dependencies that will determine sequencing. We assess your operational maturity, team skills, and cost baseline so the recommended target state is realistic — not aspirational.
Key Activities
- Application portfolio discovery and dependency mapping
- 6 Rs classification (rehost / replatform / refactor / repurchase / retain / retire)
- On-premises cost baseline and TCO modeling
- Compliance, residency, and security requirements review
- Skill-set assessment and target operating-model design
Deliverables
- Application portfolio inventory with migration patterns
- Total cost of ownership comparison (on-prem vs. cloud)
- Migration wave plan with sequencing rationale
- Cloud target operating model recommendations
Landing Zone & Foundation
Week 3–6Before a single workload moves, we set up the cloud foundation properly. That means a multi-account or multi-subscription landing zone with guardrails, identity federation, network topology, logging and monitoring baselines, and infrastructure-as-code from day one. Getting this right at the start prevents the painful retrofits that come from migrating into a flat single account.
Key Activities
- Multi-account / subscription landing zone design
- Identity federation (Entra ID, AWS IAM Identity Center, GCP IAM)
- Hub-and-spoke or transit network architecture
- Centralized logging, monitoring, and audit pipelines
- Infrastructure-as-code repository and CI/CD bootstrapping
Deliverables
- Landing zone deployed via Terraform / Bicep / CloudFormation
- Network topology and security baseline
- Centralized observability and audit logging
- Documented account / subscription provisioning runbook
Migration Waves
Ongoing per waveWe migrate in waves of related applications — typically 5 to 15 workloads per wave — so we can build operational muscle and catch issues early. Each wave runs as a mini-project: cutover plan, pre-cutover testing, run-day, hypercare. We standardize the boring parts (logging, tagging, backup, IAM) so engineers can focus on the application-specific decisions that actually matter.
Key Activities
- Per-wave cutover planning and stakeholder readiness checks
- Application refactoring for cloud-native services (where in scope)
- Data migration with cutover, replication, or dual-write strategies
- Functional, performance, and DR testing pre-cutover
- Cutover run-day execution and hypercare
Deliverables
- Migrated workloads with deployment pipelines
- Cutover playbooks and rollback procedures
- Updated architecture and operational runbooks
- Wave retrospective with lessons-learned for the next wave
Optimization & FinOps
OngoingCloud bills surprise nobody who's been running cloud for a while — but they shouldn't surprise you either. After migration, we set up cost visibility (tagging, allocation, anomaly alerts) and start the steady-state optimization work: right-sizing, savings plans, storage tiering, and architectural changes that pay back faster than they cost. We also establish the operational practices — incident response, capacity planning, security reviews — that keep the platform healthy.
Key Activities
- Cost allocation tagging and chargeback / showback reporting
- Right-sizing, reserved-capacity, and savings-plan analysis
- Storage lifecycle policies and idle-resource cleanup
- Reliability and DR testing (game days, chaos engineering)
- Security posture reviews and continuous compliance
Deliverables
- FinOps dashboards with anomaly alerts
- Right-sizing and savings-plan recommendations with ROI
- Operational maturity scorecard and improvement plan
- Quarterly architecture and cost review cadence
