Cloud Services

Our cloud migration and consulting services help organizations move to AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud and run well once they are there. We plan and migrate workloads in waves, modernize the ones worth modernizing, set up secure and well-governed foundations, and put cost controls in place, so the cloud becomes a dependable platform rather than a bill nobody can explain.

Moving to the cloud is the easy part. Running well there is harder

Lift-and-shift migrations look fast on a project plan and expensive on the first invoice. Servers sized for an old data center run around the clock, every team opens its own accounts, nobody can say which resources belong to which product, and security settings depend on who set them up. A year later the cloud costs more than the hardware it replaced and feels harder to control.

Our cloud consultants plan the move and the destination together. Each workload is assessed and migrated in waves, rehosted, re-platformed, or modernized depending on what it is worth. It lands in a governed foundation with identity, networking, security guardrails, and cost tagging already in place, so from the first day you can see what you are paying for and why.

Four principles for a cloud estate that stays under control

Each is far easier to set up before the first workload moves than to retrofit across hundreds of resources later.

01

Assess before you move

Every application gets a decision: retire, rehost, re-platform, or rebuild. Moving everything as it is just relocates old problems to a more expensive address.

02

Foundations first

A landing zone with accounts, networks, identity, and guardrails defined in code, so every new workload starts secure and consistent instead of improvised.

03

Cost is an engineering metric

Tagging, budgets, and per-team cost reports from day one. Rightsizing, reserved capacity, and autoscaling are routine work, not an annual panic.

04

Secure by default

Least-privilege access, encryption, central logging, and policy guardrails applied automatically to every account, aligned with SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, or GDPR requirements.

Cloud migration and consulting services for AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud

Six services we provide, from a first migration to running a mature multi-account estate. If your main pain is slow releases or Kubernetes, our Cloud & DevOps practice is the better starting point.

Readiness & migration planning

An inventory of your applications, dependencies, and data, with a recommended approach for each, a migration sequence, and a realistic cost model for the target cloud.

  • Application and dependency inventory
  • A move decision for every workload
  • Target cost and timeline model

Workload migration

Servers, databases, and applications moved in planned waves with testing, data sync, and rollback plans, scheduled around your business so downtime is minimal and agreed in advance.

  • Wave planning and cutover runbooks
  • Database migration with validation
  • A rollback plan for every wave

Application modernization

Workloads worth more than a rehost, re-platformed onto managed databases and containers, or rebuilt as serverless, cloud-native services where it pays off.

  • Managed database and container moves
  • Serverless and event-driven redesign
  • Monolith decomposition where justified

Landing zones & governance

Multi-account structure, networking, identity, and guardrails defined in Terraform, so teams can create what they need quickly without bypassing security or cost rules.

  • Account and network architecture
  • Single sign-on and role-based access
  • Policy guardrails as code

FinOps & cost optimization

A clear view of what you spend and why, then the savings: rightsizing, reserved capacity, storage tiers, and switching off what nobody uses, tracked month over month.

  • Cost allocation by team and product
  • Rightsizing and commitment planning
  • Budgets, alerts, and monthly reviews

Managed cloud operations

Ongoing monitoring, patching, backups, and security reviews for your cloud environment, with agreed response times and a named team that knows your setup.

  • Monitoring, patching, and backups
  • Security and compliance reviews
  • Response targets and monthly reporting

Our cloud migration process, from assessment to a well-run estate

The first workloads usually move within six to eight weeks. Larger estates migrate in waves over several months, and each wave delivers savings or capability on its own.

Stage 01

2–3 weeks

Assessment & business case

We inventory applications, dependencies, and current costs, decide the right approach for each workload, and design a target architecture with a realistic cost comparison.

  • Application inventory and move decisions
  • Target cloud architecture
  • Migration plan and cost model
Stage 02

2–4 weeks

Landing zone

Accounts, networks, identity, logging, and security guardrails go in as code, along with cost tagging and budgets, before any workload moves.

  • Landing zone defined in Terraform
  • Identity and access model
  • Security and cost guardrails
Stage 03

Per wave

Migration waves

Workloads move in planned groups with testing, data validation, and cutover windows agreed in advance. Each wave is checked against performance and cost targets before the next begins.

  • Migrated and tested workloads
  • Cutover runbooks and validation reports
  • Legacy infrastructure decommissioned
Stage 04

Ongoing

Optimize & operate

Rightsizing, modernization of the workloads worth it, and regular cost and security reviews, run by your team with our documentation or by us as a managed service.

  • Monthly cost and security reports
  • Optimization backlog and roadmap
  • Runbooks or managed service agreement

What a well-run cloud gives your business

A cloud bill you can explain line by line, by team and by product

Workloads moved with planned, minimal downtime and a rollback at every step

Security and compliance guardrails applied to every account automatically

Infrastructure your teams can extend quickly without bypassing the rules

Cloud migration questions we hear most

  • There is no single best cloud; the right one depends on your existing systems, your team's skills, and your workloads. Azure is often the natural fit for organizations built on Microsoft 365 and Active Directory, AWS offers the broadest range of services, and Google Cloud is strong for data and analytics. We compare them against your actual applications and costs during the assessment and recommend on fit, not preference.
