Expertise / A closer look
Cloud Platforms — Azure & GCP
Landing zones, workloads and cost control on Azure and Google Cloud — cloud that is architected, not just switched on.
The opportunity
Make the next step
a better one.
Cloud accounts grow sideways: resources nobody owns, budgets that surprise at month end, and a production workload running on a VM someone set up in the console. Without a landing zone, identity boundaries and IaC, every new environment makes the drift worse — and migration projects stall on networking and permissions before a single workload moves.
We start with a landing zone: subscription structure, networking, identity boundaries and guardrails defined before the first workload lands. Infrastructure is Terraform from day one so environments are reproducible and reviewable, workloads are containerised where they benefit, and cost budgets with alerts ship alongside the deployment. Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions carries the pipeline — whichever your team already runs.
- Working together
- Named delivery lead + team
- Timing
- Landing zone in 2–4 weeks; migrations scoped per workload
What we deliver
Focused on the right things.
- Azure and GCP landing zones: subscriptions, networking, guardrails
- Workload migration and modernisation (containers, App Service, Cloud Run)
- Terraform infrastructure as code across environments
- Cost governance: budgets, alerts and rightsizing reviews
What you take away
Something you can run.
- Landing-zone design + deployed guardrails
- Workloads migrated with Terraform-managed infrastructure
- CI/CD on GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps
- Cost dashboards, budgets and a runbook handover
Before we begin
A little clarity
goes a long way.
01What do you need from us to get started?
A short description of the problem, a link to the current website or tool if there is one, and what a useful result would look like. You do not need a finished specification. We agree access, DPA/NDA and content requirements once scope is clear.
02Can you work with what we already have?
Yes. We start from your current setup and constraints. A focused improvement or integration may beat a rebuild — we'll explain options and tradeoffs with costed recommendations before you commit.
03How are cost, timeline and SLAs agreed?
After discovery we issue a scoped proposal: deliverables, milestones, timeline, support and SLA terms. Work begins on sign-off; any change is re-scoped in writing before additional work starts.
