Cloud architecture and landing zones
Well-architected foundations with identity, networking, security and governance designed in.
- Multi-account and subscription design
- Policy as code and guardrails
- Hybrid and multi-cloud connectivity
Cloud & DevOps
Cloud platforms your engineers actually enjoy using.
We design, migrate and run cloud infrastructure that is secure by default, defined as code and cost-aware, so teams ship faster with fewer surprises.
Overview
Cloud & DevOps Engineering
Moving to the cloud was supposed to make delivery faster and cheaper. For many organisations it has instead produced sprawling accounts, inconsistent environments and monthly bills nobody fully understands.
Our cloud practice focuses on foundations: landing zones, infrastructure as code, golden paths for developers and clear cost ownership. AI workloads add new demands for GPUs, data pipelines and model hosting, and we design for those too.
Business challenges
Problems we are usually asked to solve
01
Manual, inconsistent environments
Infrastructure is configured by hand, so staging never quite matches production.
02
Rising, unexplained cloud spend
Bills grow every quarter and there is no tagging, budget ownership or rightsizing practice.
03
Slow, risky releases
Deployments are infrequent, manual and stressful, and rollbacks are improvised.
04
Data centres nearing end of life
Hardware refreshes or contract renewals are forcing a migration decision on a tight timeline.
Our solutions
What we build and deliver
Migration and modernisation
Planned migrations that choose the right path per workload: rehost, replatform or refactor.
- Portfolio assessment and wave planning
- Database and application migration
- Cloud-native refactoring
DevOps and platform engineering
Internal platforms and pipelines that make the right way the easy way for developers.
- CI/CD automation
- Kubernetes and container platforms
- Infrastructure as code and GitOps
Reliability and FinOps
Operating practices that keep services healthy and spend under control.
- Site reliability engineering and SLOs
- Observability and incident response
- Cost visibility, rightsizing and commitments

Engagement approach
How an engagement runs
- 01
Assess
Current architecture, spend, security posture and delivery practices, benchmarked and prioritised.
- 02
Foundation
Landing zone, identity, networking and pipelines built as reusable code.
- 03
Migrate and modernise
Workloads move in planned waves with testing and rollback at each step.
- 04
Operate
Managed operations, SRE and FinOps reviews, or enablement for your platform team.
Which cloud provider is best for us?
The answer depends on your existing licences, skills, data residency needs and workloads. We work across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and Oracle Cloud and give a vendor-neutral recommendation.
How can we reduce our cloud bill?
Typical levers include rightsizing, scheduling non-production environments, storage tiering, commitment-based discounts and architectural changes. We start with a cost review to identify where the real waste is.
Do you provide ongoing cloud management?
Yes. We offer managed cloud services covering monitoring, patching, backups, cost reviews and incident response, with clear service levels.
Can you help us run AI workloads in the cloud?
Yes. We design GPU and model-hosting infrastructure, vector databases, data pipelines and the security controls that AI workloads require.
