We create target reference architectures tailored to your workloads, SLAs, and compliance needs. This covers landing zone structure (accounts/subscriptions/projects), identity and access patterns, network segmentation, data flows, resiliency (multi‑AZ/region), and guardrails. We define IaC module standards, CI/CD patterns, SLOs, backup/DR strategy, and a FinOps operating model with budgets and tagging standards.

We build the foundations using infrastructure‑as‑code and GitOps: accounts, IAM/SSO, VPC/VNet, subnets, routing, security controls, logging, and monitoring. We set up CI/CD with quality/security gates, cost budgets and alerts, and deploy autoscaling, storage lifecycle policies, and caching. Where relevant, we stand up an Internal Developer Platform (templates, self‑service) to accelerate delivery safely.

We continuously tune performance and cost with evidence from metrics, traces, and spend data. Activities include right‑sizing, instance family updates, Spot/Savings Plans/Reserved Instances strategies, egress optimization, image and function cold‑start tuning, and data lifecycle policies. We codify policies (OPA/Kyverno), enforce tagging, and run monthly optimization cycles with clear before/after savings tracking.

We transfer knowledge and embed practices: runbooks, playbooks, ADRs, and architecture diagrams. We train teams on IaC standards, pipelines, incident response, SLOs, and FinOps governance (budgets, unit economics, showback/chargeback). We establish dashboards and operating rhythms (weekly standups, monthly reviews) so your team can operate, evolve, and keep costs under control independently.

We establish lightweight, automated governance to keep your platform secure and cost‑efficient at scale. This includes policy‑as‑code guardrails, environment promotion rules, change management through pipelines, access reviews, and compliance evidence automation. We align KPIs (deploy frequency, MTTR, SLO compliance, cost per service) to business objectives and review them on a consistent cadence.
