Cloud and DevOps, without surprises.

We design, migrate and run the infrastructure behind your applications on Microsoft Azure, AWS or your own servers. Every change passes automatic checks, every release can be rolled back in one action, and the monthly bill is predictable.

Example: a code change passes automated tests and a staging version, is approved by you, released without downtime and monitored. If anything is wrong, the previous version comes back in one action. Below: the latest backup, costs against the budget and where the data lives.

How much cloud you really need

The cloud is computing power, databases and storage you rent from providers like Microsoft Azure and AWS: you pay for what you use and maintain no servers of your own. DevOps is the practice that joins development to running the system: automated tests and releases, monitoring, and clear procedures when something goes wrong.

The cloud isn't a goal in itself. A website or an internal app is often fine on one managed service for a few dozen euros a month, while a platform with thousands of users needs automatic scaling. We recommend the simplest architecture that meets your needs and describe it in code, so it can be rebuilt at any time.

How we help

From the first move to the cloud to calm, everyday running.

  1. 01

    Migration to the cloud

    We move applications and databases from your own servers or old hosting to Azure or AWS, in stages, with a way back at every stage.

  2. 02

    Automated testing and releases (CI/CD)

    Every code change is checked and released automatically, the same way every time. No manual steps and no risky Friday-evening releases.

  3. 03

    Monitoring, backups and security

    Alerts before users notice a problem, daily backups with tested restores, and protected access to everything.

  4. 04

    Cloud cost control

    We review your bill, remove unused resources and right-size the rest. We set a budget with an alert before it is exceeded.

How we work with your infrastructure

Everything is documented, automated and verifiable, so the system doesn't depend on one person's memory.

  1. 01

    Audit

    What runs where, what it costs, who has access, and what happens if something stops.

  2. 02

    Architecture and forecast

    The simplest architecture that meets your needs, with a forecast of the monthly costs.

  3. 03

    Infrastructure as code

    The whole infrastructure is described in code. It can be reviewed, rebuilt and rolled back like any other code.

  4. 04

    Migration and automated releases

    Automated releases from day one, and a move in stages without interrupting your work.

  5. 05

    Monitoring and support

    Dashboards, alerts and clear response times written into the contract.

Technology we know inside out

We choose the provider and the tools to suit your systems, your team and your budget.

Clouds
  • Microsoft Azure
  • AWS
  • Linux servers

The major clouds for flexibility, or your own servers when that makes more sense. Your data stays in the EU.

Containers
  • Docker
  • Kubernetes

Kubernetes pays off with many services and heavy traffic. Most applications don't need it, and we'll tell you so.

Automation
  • GitHub Actions
  • Terraform

Releases and infrastructure described in code and run automatically.

Monitoring
  • Grafana
  • Prometheus

Dashboards and alerts for load, errors and slow spots.

Data
  • PostgreSQL
  • Redis

Databases with automatic backups and restore to any chosen moment.

Questions about cloud and DevOps

Azure or AWS: which is better?

Neither is better in principle. Azure is the natural choice if your company already works with Microsoft 365 and .NET, and AWS offers the widest range of services. We decide by your systems, your team and the price. For most projects, both do an excellent job.

How much does the cloud cost per month?

A small application often costs a few dozen euros a month, and a platform with many users hundreds of euros or more. Before the migration you get a forecast, and after it a budget with an alert before it is exceeded.

Will work stop during the migration?

We plan the migration so that downtime is minimal or none at all: the new environment runs side by side, the data is kept in sync, and the switch happens at the quietest hour. Every stage has a plan for going back.

Where will our data be stored?

In EU data centres, unless you decide otherwise. That makes GDPR compliance and your own customers' requirements easier to meet.

Can you take over infrastructure someone else built?

Yes. We start with an audit: what is there, what it costs, who has access and what the risks are. Then we propose a plan by priority, starting with the riskiest part.

What does DevOps mean in practice?

That releasing a new version is a routine, automated operation, not an event. Code is tested automatically, releases take one action and can be rolled back, and the system is monitored continuously, so problems are found before your customers notice them.
