Development
Containerised microservices, serverless functions, and Kubernetes orchestration on AWS or GCP — infrastructure that scales automatically and costs less to run than your current setup.
Infrastructure That Scales Without Breaking
Cloud-native development is not just about hosting your application on AWS — it's about architecting software to take full advantage of the elasticity, resilience, and economics that cloud infrastructure provides. Our cloud-native application development service helps engineering teams build and migrate applications that are container-first, infrastructure-as-code from day one, and designed to scale horizontally without the operational overhead of traditional server management. We work with AWS (ECS, EKS, Lambda, RDS, S3, CloudFront) and Google Cloud Platform to design and deliver systems that are cost-efficient at small scale and performant at large scale — with no single points of failure and observable at every layer. Whether you're building a greenfield cloud-native application or modernising a monolithic legacy system, we architect solutions that give your engineering team operational confidence and your business reliable uptime.
Our infrastructure approach treats configuration as code, deployments as automated pipelines, and reliability as a first-class concern — not an afterthought. Every system we build includes observability from the outset: structured logging, distributed tracing, alerting, and dashboards that tell your on-call engineer exactly what broke and why within seconds of an incident.
What We Build
We design and deliver cloud-native systems across the full spectrum — from event-driven microservices architectures for high-throughput data platforms, to serverless API backends for SaaS products that need to scale from zero to thousands of concurrent users without infrastructure babysitting. Our cloud engineering team handles everything from VPC network design and IAM security policies to database clustering, CDN configuration, and multi-region failover — giving you enterprise-grade infrastructure without an enterprise-sized ops team.
Legacy modernisation is also a core capability. If you're running a monolithic application on aging servers that can't scale economically, we conduct a thorough assessment, define a pragmatic migration path, and execute the decomposition incrementally — keeping your production system live throughout the transition. We don't advocate for big-bang rewrites; we prefer the strangler fig pattern and data-driven prioritisation to ensure every phase of modernisation delivers immediate operational value.
Key Deliverables
A cloud architecture design document, Terraform infrastructure codebase, containerised application deployment, CI/CD pipeline, and observability stack — all production-ready and fully documented for your engineering team to own and operate.
- Cloud architecture design on AWS or GCP with security and cost review

Questions
The right choice depends on your existing tooling, team familiarity, and workload profile. AWS has the deepest service breadth and is the default for most SaaS and enterprise workloads. GCP has strengths in data and ML infrastructure and is often the better choice if BigQuery or Vertex AI are central to your product. We're certified on both and will make a data-driven recommendation based on your specific situation — without bias toward either platform.
Yes. We handle cloud migrations from bare-metal, VPS, and legacy hosting providers to modern cloud infrastructure. We assess your application for cloud-readiness, identify components that need refactoring before migration, plan a zero-downtime cutover strategy, and execute the migration in phases to minimise risk. We don't advocate for lift-and-shift migrations that simply move technical debt to the cloud — we modernise as we migrate wherever commercially viable.
Yes. We offer managed cloud operations retainers that include infrastructure monitoring, cost optimisation reviews, security patching, scaling configuration, incident response, and quarterly architecture reviews. Our goal is always to build your team's internal capability alongside the service — so you're not permanently dependent on us — but we're happy to act as your cloud ops team for as long as you need us.
Cloud architecture and infrastructure projects typically range from £15,000 for a focused containerisation and CI/CD setup to £80,000+ for a full multi-service cloud-native application including data infrastructure, observability, and security hardening. We scope all projects with a paid architecture review (£3,500) that produces a detailed infrastructure plan and itemised cost estimate before any build commitment.
