Common questions from cloud decision-makers
Answers to the questions we hear most often before an engagement starts.
We support Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, and Google Cloud Platform. Most engagements are single-provider, but we also help companies operating in multi-cloud environments. We do not push any specific vendor: the right platform depends on your workloads, your team, and your commercial situation.
No. We work with companies at various stages, from Series A businesses building their first production cloud environment to larger enterprises dealing with cost overruns, security gaps, or accumulated architectural debt. The common thread is a real cloud challenge that needs structured attention.
Yes. Cloud cost optimization is one of our most common starting points. We review your current spend, identify the main cost drivers, assess waste and over-provisioning, review your commitment structure, and build a prioritized optimization roadmap. Savings potential varies by environment. We will give you an honest assessment of what we find, not an inflated estimate.
Both. We can provide architecture guidance and recommendations, and we can also work hands-on inside your environment to implement changes alongside your engineering team. Most engagements involve a combination of both. We are clear about scope before we start.
Yes. A security posture review is one of our standard starting points. We assess identity and access management, network configuration, logging and monitoring, security baselines, and compliance alignment. The output is a practical remediation roadmap, not a compliance certificate.
A cloud assessment typically starts with a scoping conversation to understand your environment, team, and priorities. We then review the relevant areas, such as architecture, cost, security, operations, or all of them, and produce a written assessment with specific findings and a prioritized action plan. Most assessments take two to four weeks depending on scope.
Yes. We help companies plan and execute migrations from on-premises to cloud environments, including workload discovery, dependency mapping, risk assessment, migration waves, connectivity planning, testing, cutover planning, and post-migration optimization. A well-structured migration plan is the most important investment you can make before the first workload moves.
Absolutely. Most of our work is with companies that already have a cloud environment and are dealing with problems that have accumulated over time: cost, security, operational complexity, or architectural debt. You do not need to be starting from scratch to benefit from a structured review and improvement program.
Most engagements follow four phases: Assess, Prioritize, Implement, and Operate. The scope and duration depend on the service area. A cloud assessment might take two to four weeks. A migration engagement might run over several months in structured waves. A FinOps improvement program might run quarterly. We always define scope and price before we start.
Typically fixed-price for scoped projects and retainer-based for ongoing work. We do not use time-and-materials billing; it misaligns incentives. You will always know what you are getting and what it costs before we begin.
