Technology & SaaS
Engineering capacity for product companies — extending your team without diluting the standards it works to.
Solution
Cloud Transformation
We fix cloud estates that migrated without modernising, and run migrations for organisations that have not started — in both cases beginning with infrastructure as code.
“We moved to the cloud and our costs went up, deployments are still manual, and nobody can recreate production.”
01Overview
How we think about it
The common outcome of a lift-and-shift is the same architecture, running on rented hardware, at a higher monthly cost and with a new set of operational unknowns.
The fix is not another migration. It is establishing the foundations that were skipped: infrastructure defined in code, a deployment pipeline anyone can run, and cost attributed to the teams that incur it.
Once production can be recreated from a repository, everything else becomes tractable. Disaster recovery is a rehearsal instead of a plan. Cost optimisation is a pull request. Scaling is configuration.
02The problem
What is going wrong today
Unpredictable spend
A monthly bill nobody can attribute, with no clear link between cost and the teams driving it.
Snowflake environments
Production configured by hand over years, with staging that differs in ways nobody has documented.
Manual, risky deployment
Releases that require a specific person, a runbook and a maintenance window.
Untested recovery
A disaster recovery plan on paper that has never been executed end to end.
03The approach
What we put in place
Estate and spend audit
What is running, what it costs, what nothing depends on, and where the waste concentrates.
Infrastructure as code
Existing environments brought under Terraform so they become reviewable and reproducible.
Pipeline and automation
CI/CD with automated testing, progressive rollout and one-command rollback.
Observability
Metrics, logs, tracing and alerting that identify causes rather than only announcing symptoms.
Optimise and govern
Right-sizing, autoscaling, tagging policy and a recurring cost review your team can run.
