Architecture

Cloud Native

Cloud Native practice of designing and building applications that are optimized for deployment in cloud computing environments, utilizing the benefits of microservices, containerization, and orchestration.

Cloud-native architecture, design, and development of software applications that are built to run in the cloud. This includes utilizing cloud-specific technologies and practices, such as microservices, containers, and continuous delivery. Cloud-native applications are designed to be highly scalable, resilient, and able to take advantage of the unique capabilities of cloud environments. Some of the key benefits of cloud-native applications include reduced costs, increased flexibility, and improved performance.

What's involved

How we approach Cloud Native

  • 01

    Microservices

    A Microservices architecture is a way of building software applications as a collection of small, independently deployable services. This makes it easier to develop, test, and deploy new features, and also allows for more flexibility and scalability.

  • 02

    Containers

    Containers are a lightweight and portable way to package software applications and dependencies together. This makes it easy to move applications between different environments, such as from development to production.

  • 03

    Continuous Delivery

    This is a practice of continuously building, testing, and deploying software updates, often with the use of automation. This allows for faster feedback and faster delivery of new features to customers.

  • 04

    Serverless

    Serverless computing is a cloud-native architecture that allows you to run your code without provisioning or managing servers. Instead, you simply upload your code and the cloud provider runs it for you, scaling up and down as needed.

How we work

Eight steps from
assessment to
steady state

The same sequence on every engagement, so you always know what happens next.

  1. 01

    Assessment

    A senior engineer reviews your infrastructure, pipelines, cloud spend and security posture.

  2. 02

    Plan

    Findings become a written plan — risks, waste and quick wins, in plain English.

  3. 03

    Prioritize

    We agree what gets fixed first, based on impact rather than what is easiest to start.

  4. 04

    Execution

    Pipelines, infrastructure as code, monitoring and hardening land while your team keeps shipping.

  5. 05

    Test

    Every change is validated in a real environment before it touches production.

  6. 06

    Optimization

    Right-sizing, spend governance and performance tuning once the baseline is stable.

  7. 07

    Operate

    We run it day to day — incidents, patching and releases — with a named engineer on call.

  8. 08

    Monitor

    Continuous metrics, logs and alerting, with monthly cost and performance reporting.
