How we engage

A phased approach that fits into your existing workflow — no disruption, no guesswork.

01

Cloud Readiness Assessment

We audit your current infrastructure, application portfolio, and team skills — mapping dependencies, risks, and the highest-value migration or modernization opportunities.

02

Architecture & Landing Zone Design

We design your target cloud architecture — account structure, network topology, IAM strategy, and IaC blueprints — with a detailed migration roadmap and cost model.

03

Build, Migrate & Automate

We provision landing zones, automate infrastructure, execute migration waves, and integrate security controls — delivering a production-ready platform in 6–10 weeks.

04

Optimize & FinOps

Post-migration, we continuously right-size resources, tune cost controls, track FinOps KPIs, and evolve the platform as your organization scales.

Cloud Landing Zone & Governance

A cloud landing zone is your foundation — multi-account hierarchy, network topology, security baseline, and guardrails. We build it right the first time so every workload lands in a governed environment.

  • AWS Control Tower / GCP Fabric / Azure Landing Zone
  • Account vending machine automation
  • Transit Gateway / VPC hub-spoke design
  • SCPs, Org Policies & Azure Policy guardrails
  • Centralized logging & security aggregation
  • Automated compliance baseline (CIS, NIST)

Multi-Cloud Architecture & Portability

Build once, run anywhere. We design cloud-agnostic architectures with consistent security, networking, and operational tooling across AWS, GCP, and Azure.

  • Cloud-agnostic Terraform modules
  • Cross-cloud VPN & interconnect design
  • Federated identity (Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace)
  • Unified cost visibility (CloudHealth, Apptio)
  • Multi-cloud DR & active-active strategies
  • Egress cost optimization & traffic engineering

Cost Optimization & FinOps Practice

Cloud cost without visibility is a liability. We implement FinOps as an engineering discipline — continuous right-sizing, commitment coverage, and real-time anomaly detection.

  • AWS Cost Explorer, GCP Billing, Azure Cost Mgmt
  • Compute right-sizing with Compute Optimizer / Recommender
  • Reserved Instance & Savings Plan coverage analysis
  • Spot / Preemptible instance automation (Karpenter)
  • Showback & chargeback tagging enforcement
  • Cost anomaly alerting & budget enforcement

Internal Developer Platform (IDP)

Reduce cognitive load on your engineering teams with a self-service platform — golden paths, service templates, automated environments, and a developer portal that actually gets used.

  • Backstage developer portal setup & customization
  • Self-service environment provisioning workflows
  • Golden path templates (app, API, data service)
  • Service catalog & dependency registry
  • Platform SLO dashboards & DORA metrics
  • Platform team topology & team enablement

Cloud Migration & Modernization

A structured, wave-based migration that minimizes risk and downtime. We map every dependency, automate the cutover, and validate each workload before decommissioning legacy resources.

  • Application portfolio discovery (CloudEndure, Cloudamize)
  • 6 Rs strategy: Rehost, Replatform, Refactor…
  • Wave planning & dependency graph automation
  • Database migration (DMS, Striim, Debezium)
  • Zero-downtime DNS cutover & smoke testing

Frequently asked

What's a cloud landing zone and do I need one?+
A landing zone is the foundational cloud environment that all your workloads land in. It defines your account structure, network layout, security baseline, and access controls. If you're running more than a handful of teams or workloads in the cloud, a well-designed landing zone prevents governance chaos and security drift at scale.
How long does a cloud migration typically take?+
It depends on portfolio size and complexity. A focused wave of 5–10 applications typically takes 4–8 weeks per wave. We start with a discovery sprint to map dependencies and create a realistic wave plan — so there are no surprises mid-migration.
Can you help reduce our existing cloud bill?+
Yes — and typically within the first 30 days. We run a FinOps assessment covering compute right-sizing, Reserved Instance coverage gaps, orphaned resources, and tagging compliance. Most organizations see 20–40% reduction opportunities immediately.
Do you work with all three major cloud providers?+
Yes. We're certified and actively deliver on AWS, GCP, and Azure. We recommend the right provider for each workload based on your existing investment, team skills, and workload requirements — not vendor preference.
What is an Internal Developer Platform and do we need one?+
An IDP is a self-service layer that lets developers provision environments, deploy services, and access infrastructure without becoming cloud experts. If your platform team is a bottleneck for developer productivity, an IDP is the answer. We typically build them on Backstage with Crossplane or Terraform as the provisioning backend.
How is pricing structured?+
We price to outcomes, not hours. One-time engagements like cloud migrations, Kubernetes onboarding, or security audits are fixed-fee and clearly scoped. Ongoing managed services run on a monthly retainer sized to your infrastructure complexity — no surprise bills, no scope creep.
