What Is Included

Every AWS service managed. Nothing left unattended.

Comprehensive management of your AWS estate from compute and databases to containers, serverless, and networking.

EC2 and RDS Management

Compute and database instances provisioned, patched, and right-sized continuously. Instance families selected for workload type and cost efficiency. Automated scaling policies configured.

Well-Architected Reviews

Regular reviews against the five pillars of the AWS Well-Architected Framework: operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and cost optimisation.

How We Work

From audit to managed operations in six steps.

A structured onboarding process that gets your AWS environment under control quickly and keeps it there.

01

Infrastructure Audit

Full review of your existing AWS accounts, resource inventory, architecture patterns, and configuration gaps. Findings documented with a prioritised remediation plan.

02

Architecture Design

Target architecture designed to the Well-Architected Framework. Landing zone, account structure, network topology, and security baseline agreed before any changes are made.

03

Infrastructure Deployment

Resources provisioned using infrastructure as code. Terraform or CloudFormation templates version-controlled and peer-reviewed. No manual console changes in production.

04

Hardening and Baseline

Security groups, IAM roles, encryption settings, and logging configured to CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark. Baseline documented and enforced via AWS Config rules.

05

Monitoring Setup

CloudWatch dashboards, alarms, and log groups configured for every managed resource. Alerting routed to your team and our engineers for immediate response.

06

Ongoing Management

Day-to-day operations, patching, scaling, and incident response handled by our team. Monthly Well-Architected reviews and quarterly architecture assessments included.

Real Results

AWS infrastructure delivered for UK businesses.

SaaS Platform, London

A SaaS company had grown their AWS environment organically over three years. No tagging, inconsistent security groups, and no infrastructure as code. Engineers were spending 30 percent of their time on AWS operations.

Full infrastructure refactored to Terraform. Security baseline applied. Engineering team freed from AWS operations entirely. Deployment time reduced from 4 hours to 12 minutes.

E-Commerce Business, Manchester

An online retailer needed to scale their AWS infrastructure to handle Black Friday traffic spikes without paying for peak capacity year-round.

Auto Scaling groups and EKS node pools configured for dynamic scaling. Infrastructure cost reduced by 28 percent. Black Friday traffic handled without a single incident.

Financial Services Firm, Leeds

A financial services company needed their AWS environment to meet FCA data residency requirements and pass an internal architecture review before going live with a new product.

VPC architecture redesigned with UK-only data residency enforced. Well-Architected review passed. Internal architecture sign-off received. Product launched on schedule.
