Cloud Infrastructure Set Up Securely and Cost-Effectively
Secure cloud infrastructure setup and cost optimisation on AWS and other providers.
Overview
Cloud platforms offer enormous flexibility, but poorly configured accounts can be insecure or unexpectedly expensive. We design infrastructure that matches your workload, with security controls and sensible budgets.
We work primarily with AWS and also with DigitalOcean, Google Cloud and Indian hosting providers where they fit better.

AWS & Cloud Infrastructure: common questions
Is AWS too expensive for a small business?
Not necessarily. Many small workloads run cheaply when sized correctly; sometimes a simpler VPS is the better choice and we will say so.
Who owns the cloud account?
You do. We work with delegated access.
