Cloud & infrastructure
Cloud infrastructure, designed to certified standards and run by the people who built it.
Cloud architecture on AWS, Google Cloud and dedicated servers. Migrations, infrastructure as code, pipelines, monitoring, backups and the hosting under it all. We ship it, so we run it.
What you get
- Architecture reviewed against the AWS Well-Architected Framework
- Lower, predictable cloud bills
- Deploys that are boring and safe
What's included
What we do, in detail.
Cloud architecture
Designed to AWS Solutions Architect standards: networking, compute, data, security and cost, planned before anything is provisioned.
Migrations
From on-premise servers, shared hosting or another cloud to AWS, Google Cloud or dedicated servers, planned to avoid downtime.
Infrastructure as code
Every environment described in Terraform or CDK, reviewed like code and reproducible in minutes.
CI/CD and containers
Pipelines that test and deploy on every change, with containers and rollbacks that take one click.
Monitoring, backups and on-call
Uptime, errors, certificates and costs watched around the clock. Daily off-site backups with restores that have actually been tested.
Managed hosting
Hosting in your company's name on EU servers, with updates tested before they reach the public and small changes included every month.
Managed hosting
The layer nobody notices, until the day it fails.
Hosting in your name
The account and the domain belong to your business. We have access; you have ownership.
Updates tested first
Patches and upgrades go through staging before they reach the public. Security fixes first.
Backups restored, not just taken
Daily, off the same machine, with retention, and restores we have actually tested.
Monitoring and alerts
Uptime, certificates, response times, errors and failed payments. We hear about it first.
Small changes included
A text, a banner, a new page. Done inside the monthly plan, without a quote for every half hour.
EU data residency
Servers and backups in the EU, documented for your privacy policy and your auditors.
Architecture
Designed against the six pillars.
Operational excellence
Everything as code, deploys automated, runbooks written before they are needed.
Security
Least-privilege access, encryption everywhere, secrets out of the code, every change logged.
Reliability
Multiple availability zones where it matters, tested backups, recovery that has been rehearsed.
Performance efficiency
The right service and size for the workload, measured rather than guessed.
Cost optimisation
Rightsizing, reserved capacity, budgets and alerts. No surprises on the monthly bill.
Sustainability
No idle servers running all night for a workload that runs an hour a day.
Use cases
Where it makes a difference.
Cost reduction
An AWS bill that doubled in a year, cut back without losing performance.
Growing out of shared hosting
A business that now depends on its site and cannot afford it going down on a Sunday.
Compliance
Data kept in the EU, access controlled and logged, backups documented for an audit.
How we work
What makes it hold.
Hosting in your name
The cloud account and the domain belong to your company. We have access, you have ownership. Moving away is never a favour you have to ask for.
Updates that are tested first
Dependencies, security patches and platform upgrades go through a staging environment before they reach the public. Security fixes go first.
A backup that was never restored is not a backup
Daily backups of files and databases, off the same machine, with retention. And restores we have actually tested.

Questions
Asked before, answered here.
AWS or something cheaper?
It depends on the workload. For many businesses a well-run dedicated server costs a fraction of AWS. We recommend what fits, not what is fashionable.
Can you review our current setup?
Yes. A cloud review covers architecture, security, reliability and cost, and ends with a prioritised list of fixes.
Where is our data stored?
In the EU by default, on infrastructure you own. Where data sits is part of compliance, so we document it.
Tell us what you are
trying to build.
A paragraph is enough to start. We will tell you what we would build, what it would take, and whether we are the right people for it.
