Signs you’ve outgrown it
- Everything runs in one AWS account, including production.
- Changes are made in the console, and nobody is sure what is running or why.
- Deployments depend on one person, or on manual steps.
- The bill keeps rising, and nobody can say which product or team it belongs to.
- A client, investor or auditor is asking security questions you can’t answer with evidence.
- The team needs senior DevOps experience, but isn’t ready to hire permanently.
What we work on
| Area | What we do |
|---|---|
| Account structure | AWS Organizations, with separate accounts for production, non-production, security and logs, and guardrails that apply to all of them |
| Identity | IAM Identity Center with MFA, roles instead of long-lived users, and OIDC for pipelines instead of stored keys |
| Networking | VPC design with private subnets, controlled internet egress and VPC endpoints |
| Compute and containers | Amazon ECS on Fargate or EC2, AWS Lambda, and autoscaling |
| Databases | Amazon RDS and Aurora: sizing, backups and major-version upgrades, including MySQL to Aurora |
| Observability | CloudWatch metrics, logs and alarms, with alerts based on what users experience |
| Infrastructure as code | Terraform for all of it. See Terraform. |
| Security | A baseline across every account. See AWS security. |
| Cost | Tagging, rightsizing and commitments. See Lower cloud costs. |
How it starts: an infrastructure review
A short, fixed-scope review of your AWS environment. You get:
- A map of your accounts, identities and what is running, and who owns each cost.
- The risks, ranked, from “fix this week” to “fix this year”.
- A written plan and a price for the work, one problem at a time.
Then we fix things in that order, in your accounts, as code, and hand everything over to your team.
Common questions
Do you only work with startups?
No. We work with growing companies generally.
Will you replace our team?
No. We work alongside your developers and hand over documentation and runbooks at the end.
Do you work on Azure?
Yes, where your systems already run there. Our offshore compliance work can run on Azure Virtual Desktop.
