What's included
Capabilities you get
Autoscaling architecture
Capacity follows demand, so you neither run out nor overpay.
Managed services first
We use managed databases, queues and storage to remove operational burden.
Cost visibility
Tagging, budgets and alerts so cloud spend never surprises you.
Fixed scope, fixed price
Well-defined work is quoted at a fixed price, and anything exploratory is time-boxed with a clear checkpoint.
Overview
Applications designed for elasticity, resilience and a bill that scales sensibly.
We build cloud-native applications using managed services, autoscaling and sound security practice, or re-platform existing ones.
How we approach cloud applications
We treat infrastructure as software: everything is defined in code, reviewed, versioned and reproducible. We start by measuring where releases and incidents currently lose time, fix the biggest constraint first, and prove each improvement with numbers — deployment frequency, lead time, recovery time and change-failure rate — before moving to the next.
What success looks like
Software that scales on demand and costs what it uses. We agree the measures that define success with you in the first week, report against them throughout, and review them together after launch.
How the engagement runs
- Discovery — a short, paid phase that ends with a scope, an architecture and a fixed estimate you own whether or not you continue with us.
- Build — weekly working releases, a shared backlog and a named lead engineer you can reach directly.
- Launch and support — staged rollout, handover training and a defined support period afterwards.
Deliverables
What you walk away with
- A working cloud applications solution in production
- Infrastructure defined as code and stored in your repository
- Automated build, test and deployment pipelines with rollback
- Monitoring, alerting and runbooks for the failure modes that matter
- Backup, recovery and disaster-recovery procedures, tested
- Security and cost review with a prioritised remediation list
- Documentation and a hands-on session for your operations team
FAQ
Common questions
- How long does cloud applications usually take?
- Typically 8–16 weeks, depending on scope and how many systems are involved. Discovery produces a firm timeline before you commit to the build.
- What does cloud applications cost?
- Engagements typically start from $14,000. We quote fixed prices for well-defined scope and give you a written estimate at the end of discovery, with every assumption listed.
- Which cloud providers do you work with?
- AWS, Google Cloud and Azure, plus conventional VPS and on-premise environments. We recommend based on your workload, team skills and budget rather than any vendor preference.
- Will there be downtime during migration?
- We design for none. Migrations run in parallel with the live system and cut over in a planned, reversible window, with a rehearsed rollback if anything behaves unexpectedly.
