What you get
Infrastructure you can reason about
Four things we deliver on every cloud engagement — no click-ops, no surprises.
Infra-as-code
Infrastructure defined in code and deployed by pipeline from day one. Every environment is reproducible, reviewable, and rollback-safe — not click-ops in a console.
Cost-conscious architecture
Right-sized compute, sensible retention policies, and budget alerts. We size for your actual load, not a hypothetical spike.
Observability built-in
Structured logs, metrics, and traces from the first deploy. You see what the system is doing before something breaks — not after.
Disaster recovery & backups
Automated backups, tested restores, and a documented RTO/RPO. Recovery is a drill we run, not a hope we hold on to.
Who this is for
Use cases
- Teams moving off a single-server setup or legacy VPS
- Startups whose cloud bills are growing faster than their revenue
- Applications that need multi-environment CI/CD from day one
- Products with no disaster recovery plan that need one quickly
- Companies migrating from on-prem to AWS or Vercel
- Engineering teams who want infrastructure they can reason about
How we work
Our process
Audit first. Architecture before provisioning. Runbooks at handover.
Discovery
Audit your current state — services, costs, pain points, risks. Written findings, not a sales deck.
Design
Architecture diagram, cost model, and IaC plan you can sign off before anything gets provisioned.
Migration or Build
Pipeline-driven rollout with staging-first deploys, dual-running where it matters, and no surprises at cutover.
Handover with runbooks
You get the IaC repo, dashboards, alerts, and runbooks for the things that will eventually go wrong.
Proof of work
Real infrastructure, in the open
Client work is under NDA. Here's how we apply the same approach to our own product.
Before you ask
Frequently asked questions
Which cloud provider should we pick?
For most UK SMEs we default to AWS for back-end workloads and Vercel for Next.js front-ends — that combination covers ninety-five per cent of what you need without paying enterprise premiums. Azure makes sense if you are already deep in Microsoft 365, and GCP shines for data-heavy analytics. We will recommend based on your workload, not on what we fancy this quarter.
Should we go multi-cloud or stick to one provider?
Stick to one unless you have a genuine reason not to. Multi-cloud sounds resilient but usually doubles your operational surface area, your learning curve, and your bill. Provider-level outages are rare; the real availability wins come from multi-region deploys inside a single cloud, which is much cheaper and easier to run.
How do you keep cloud costs under control?
Three things, honestly. One — size compute for actual observed load with autoscaling headroom, not a worst-case guess. Two — set budget alerts and cost-allocation tags from day one so you see spend trends before they hurt. Three — review monthly for a few months post-launch and kill anything that turned out to be overprovisioned. Most of our clients land 30–50% below their pre-migration estimate.
Can you migrate us from on-prem or a legacy VPS?
Yes. We start with an audit — what lives where, how it is backed up, what the dependencies are — then build a staged migration plan with dual-running during cutover. The actual move is usually the quiet bit. The risky part is the discovery, so we invest heavily there and write it all down.
What happens after go-live? Do you run it for us?
Your choice. We can hand over the IaC repo, dashboards, and runbooks to your team with a walkthrough — everything is documented for that. If you would rather we stay on for ongoing ops, we offer a fixed-monthly retainer with a defined scope: patching, cost review, incident response, and roadmap work. No lock-in, thirty-day notice either way.
