Infrastructure you understand, with costs under control and a plan for outages.
A server configured by hand years ago, a cloud account nobody watches, and a bill that grows every month. Migration and a clean-up of the infrastructure mean you know what runs, what it costs and how to restore it after a failure.
- Budgets and alerts watch the bill from day one
- All in code an environment you can rebuild after an outage
- 100% of accounts and access in your company’s name
When infrastructure has a life of its own.
- 01
The cloud bill keeps growing
Forgotten servers, oversized machines and data nobody deletes. You pay more every month and nobody can say why.
- 02
A server nobody knows
Configured by hand by someone who has since left. Every change is a risk, and restoring after a failure is guesswork.
- 03
Everything on one server
The whole company runs on a single machine. When it fails, there is nowhere to switch traffic and nothing to rebuild the system from.
- 04
Manual, stressful deployments
A new version reaches the server by copying files and typing commands by hand. Deployments happen after hours, with fingers crossed.
Headroom for failures, a bill under control.
The app can run in two zones, the database with a replica and backups in another region. When one instance stops responding, traffic moves to the other, while budgets and alerts keep costs from growing unchecked.
What infrastructure work covers.
Migration
- Applications and data moved to AWS, Azure or Google Cloud
- A move from a single server to containers
- A migration plan with minimal downtime
- Performance and restore tests before the switch
Order and cost
- Review of accounts, permissions and resources
- Machines sized to real traffic
- Budgets and cost alerts
- Infrastructure described in Terraform
Reliability
- Backups with a restore test
- Monitoring, logs and alerts
- Automated deployments and a staging environment
- Access and secrets kept in a safe place
From a review to a tidy cloud setup.
- 01 risk list
Review
What runs, where, at what cost and who has access. It ends with a list of risks and savings ordered by priority.
- 02 staging
Plan and infrastructure as code
The target architecture described in Terraform and built first as a staging environment. You approve before anything changes in production.
- 03 switch-over
Migration and switch-over
Data and applications moved according to plan, with a restore test and the switch scheduled for the quietest hours.
- 04 ongoing care
Monitoring and care
Alerts, backups, cost reviews and updates on a care plan, or a handover of the infrastructure to your own team.
What migration and clean-up cost.
The cost depends on the number of applications, the amount of data and how far the current setup is from good practice. After a free consultation you get a quote with scope and deadline within 2 working days.
Always included
- Infrastructure as code that you take over
- A restore test from backup
- Budgets and cost alerts
- Architecture documentation
- Accounts and access in your company’s name
What drives the price
- Number of applications and services
- Amount of data to move
- Availability and downtime requirements
- State of the current setup
- Security and compliance requirements
Tools every cloud engineer knows.
-
AWS, Azure and Google Cloud
The three largest clouds in the world. The choice depends on what the company already uses, for example Azure alongside Microsoft 365. The accounting firm platform runs on AWS.
-
Terraform
All infrastructure written down like a set of instructions. After an outage or a move, the environment is rebuilt without guessing how it was set up.
-
Kubernetes and Docker
The application is packaged to run the same way everywhere and to grow with traffic. Simpler projects get a lighter setup.
Projects that speak for themselves.
Questions about the cloud.

-
Not always. With steady, predictable traffic a good server can be cheaper. The review shows which option makes sense for your company, and the recommendation does not depend on what is easier to sell.
-
AWS by default. Azure when the company works on Microsoft 365 or has an agreement with Microsoft. Google Cloud when the company is already there or uses Vertex AI. With Terraform, the choice of cloud never closes the door to a later change.
-
It can usually be kept to a short window or avoided. The switch-over plan is agreed in advance and includes a way back if something goes wrong.
-
Often, yes. Unused resources, oversized machines and missing reservations are the most common sources of excess cost, and cleaning them up does not require moving the application.
-
The accounts belong to your company, and vendor access is granted on your terms and can be revoked at any time.
-
The Terraform code and documentation are prepared so your team can take the infrastructure over and keep developing it.
