Cloud and infrastructure
Engineering for the environments, infrastructure and operating arrangements that systems depend on.
We define infrastructure in code that can be reviewed, move systems between environments without losing control of them, and connect application delivery to the infrastructure it runs on.
What this covers
Infrastructure work is scoped around the systems it hosts and the organization's existing arrangements.
Define environment boundaries, compute and storage needs, networking, access, and operational dependencies. Consider deployment constraints, availability requirements, and the organization’s existing infrastructure.
Represent agreed infrastructure and environment configuration in repeatable, reviewable definitions. Establish how changes are approved, applied, and checked across environments.
Plan and execute movement between hosting environments or infrastructure arrangements. Account for application dependencies, data movement, cutover, validation, and recovery if the migration fails.
Connect application delivery to the infrastructure it needs. Define deployment steps, configuration handling, release checks, and rollback arrangements appropriate to the system.
Review resource use, visibility, access, and recurring operational problems. Define improvements to monitoring, incident handling, recovery, and cost control within an agreed operating remit.

Case studies, described as they were built.
Services that draw on it
Common questions
Which cloud providers do you work with?
Our case studies include Microsoft Azure, AWS and Google Cloud, including a migration of more than twelve applications from Google Cloud to Azure.
Do you use infrastructure as code?
Yes, where it fits the work. We have used Pulumi to define environments so that changes are reviewed, repeatable and checked across development, staging and production.
