Platform & operations

Cloud and platform

Cloud architecture, platform operations, resilience and recovery.

Capability in business terms

Why this capability matters

A platform should reduce the work needed to run a service. Recovery, access and operating cost belong in the architecture decision, not in the postmortem.

What we typically scope

Cloud architecture, landing zones, resilience, recovery, migration planning, platform operations.

How we approach the work

Design for the failure and the exit, not just the launch.

Work we take on

Example engagement — illustrative. Typical scopes of work, not named client case studies.

A landing zone that was never designed

Why it happens
Accounts and projects have been created ad hoc; there is no consistent network, identity or guardrail model.
How we work it
Design an account and project hierarchy with environment separation, establish identity federation and baseline guardrails as policy-as-code, define a network model, migrate existing workloads on a schedule.
What you end up with
A documented landing zone with guardrails enforced as code, and existing workloads migrated on an agreed schedule.

Recovery that exists on paper

Why it happens
An RTO and RPO are stated in a contract and have never been tested.
How we work it
Review backup coverage and restore testing, map actual dependencies for a full service recovery, run a controlled recovery test, measure actual against stated, document the gap.
What you end up with
A measured recovery time against the contracted objective, with the gap documented and a remediation plan.

A datacentre exit with a fixed date

Why it happens
A lease ends in fourteen months and the workload inventory is incomplete.
How we work it
Discover workloads and dependencies from network and configuration evidence; classify by migration pattern; sequence by dependency and business risk; establish a wave plan with rollback per wave and a critical path against the date.
What you end up with
A dated wave plan with dependencies mapped and rollback available per wave.

Multi-cloud that happened by accident

Why it happens
Workloads run across three providers because of historical choices, and nobody owns the overall picture.
How we work it
Inventory workloads by provider with cost and data gravity, assess the real switching cost per workload, define placement principles, identify consolidation candidates where saving justifies the move.
What you end up with
Written placement principles, a consolidation shortlist with costed moves, and multi-cloud made a decision rather than an inheritance.

Security posture ahead of a customer audit

Why it happens
An enterprise customer has issued a security questionnaire covering cloud configuration.
How we work it
Baseline configuration against CIS benchmarks, review identity and privileged access, assess encryption, logging and network exposure, remediate by risk, document the residual position.
What you end up with
A benchmarked posture with findings closed by risk order, and a residual position stated honestly in the response.
