AWS Complexity Builds Faster Than You Realize

AWS is easy to get started with, but without proper security guardrails and Infrastructure as Code best practices, it becomes complex fast. What starts as a simple deployment quickly spirals into a mess that's costing you in ways you might not even realize.

🔥 Mounting AWS Bills

Inefficient architectures that could cost 40-60% less with proper optimization. Without ongoing monitoring and expertise, your AWS spend grows faster than your revenue.

⚠️ Lose Control and Visibility

Your infrastructure results in unnecessary risks and chance of exposing vulnerabilities that might risk your customer's data. Security becomes an afterthought instead of a foundation.

😤 Team Burnout

Your developers spend time on operations instead of building out your product. They're stuck fighting AWS complexity rather than shipping features that drive revenue.

Traditional consultancies prioritize billable hours over outcomes, then disappear after setup. We do the opposite...

We Provide a Complete Package, So You Deploy Faster with Confidence on AWS Cloud

Our system consists of 5 integrated tools and services that implement the security guardrails and Infrastructure as Code best practices your team needs from day one. This approach gives you back control and visibility while eliminating the complexity that's slowing you down.

Here's exactly what each tool and service provides:

Frequently
asked questions

What happens in the first 30 days after we sign up?

Week 1: We conduct a brief assessment of your current AWS setup and begin deploying your compliant Landing Zone infrastructure.

Week 2-3: Your multi-account structure goes live with all security guardrails and monitoring in place.

Week 4: Your team gets access to our CDK component library, Slack support channel, and we schedule your first quarterly review. You'll be fully operational with a secure, compliant foundation ready for immediate use.

Am I locked into your service? What if I want to leave?

Zero lock-in. We use AWS CDK, an open-source framework supported by AWS itself. Any AWS engineer can understand and maintain our code. Cancel anytime with 30 days notice. Your infrastructure stays yours, fully documented and maintainable. We're confident you'll stay because of the value we deliver, not because you're trapped.

How are you different from other AWS consultancies?

Traditional consultancies maximize billable hours through lengthy discovery phases and custom solutions only they understand. We deliver proven, standardized solutions immediately with transparent pricing. They disappear after implementation. We stay and continuously optimize your infrastructure. They create dependency. We transfer knowledge and build your team's capabilities.

Do we need to migrate our existing AWS infrastructure?

No migration required. Our Landing Zone can be added to your existing AWS organization. We'll migrate your existing accounts into the new multi-account structure and ensure our security stacksets get deployed on them. Regarding your workload accounts, if you don't use Infrastructure as Code yet, don't worry — you can start using our off-the-shelf CDK components for new builds and decide to slowly migrate existing components to CDK if you wish.

Will our developers need extensive training on your tools?

No, because we build on top of the framework provided by AWS: AWS CDK, which is open source. Learning CDK is a valuable skill for any developer working with AWS infrastructure. Our components simply make CDK easier and faster to use with pre-built, security-hardened patterns. Your team gains marketable skills while building faster.

What level of AWS knowledge does our team need?

That's exactly why you hire us. We provide a fractional cloud engineer with a decade of AWS cloud experience to guide your team and upskill them with the right materials to make cloud adoption way easier. We show you the right way: Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD best practices, and proper AWS architecture patterns. Your team learns while building, supported by our expertise.

Who is the ideal customer for our AWS system?

Our system is ideal for invested startups and growing businesses who need to meet enterprise security requirements, such as SOC 2 and HIPAA compliance to meet regulatory requirements or win larger enterprise clients.

How do I know my AWS environment is secure with you?

We follow AWS security best practices religiously. Our access is temporary, logged, and audited. We implement least-privilege principles, continuous monitoring, and automated threat detection. Plus, you maintain full ownership and control of your AWS accounts. We're partners, not gatekeepers.
