Cloud Architecture

AWS architecture
built to last.

We design, review, and transform AWS architectures for enterprise IT teams — aligned to the AWS Well-Architected Framework across all five pillars, from greenfield platform builds to legacy architecture remediation.

Well-Architected Framework

All five pillars.
Zero compromises.

Every architecture we design or review is evaluated against the AWS Well-Architected Framework — ensuring your platform is built for the long term, not just to ship.

⚙️

Operational Excellence

Runbooks, automation, observability, and continuous improvement

🔐

Security

IAM, network controls, data protection, and threat detection

🔄

Reliability

Fault tolerance, recovery, and multi-AZ resilience patterns

Performance Efficiency

Right service selection, scaling, and performance trade-offs

💰

Cost Optimization

Cost-aware design, right-sizing, and efficiency at scale

Capabilities

What we deliver

From a single workload review to a full enterprise platform design — our architecture practice covers the full spectrum of AWS structural work.

🔍

Well-Architected Review

Formal review of your AWS workloads against the AWS WAF — identifying risks, producing a findings report, and delivering a prioritised remediation roadmap.

  • Workload questionnaire facilitation
  • Risk identification & scoring
  • Remediation roadmap
  • AWS WAF Partner Program delivery
🏢

Landing Zone Design

Multi-account AWS Organisation design with security guardrails, networking, identity federation, and baseline controls — built before your first workload lands.

  • AWS Control Tower implementation
  • Account vending machine
  • Service Control Policies
  • Centralised logging & security
🌐

Network Architecture

Enterprise-grade AWS network design — hub-and-spoke Transit Gateway topologies, VPC design, hybrid connectivity, and secure egress patterns.

  • VPC architecture & segmentation
  • Transit Gateway design
  • Direct Connect / VPN setup
  • Network ACL & SG governance
🛠️

Infrastructure as Code

Your architecture codified in Terraform, CDK, or CloudFormation — version-controlled, tested, and delivered with the CI/CD pipeline to maintain it.

  • Terraform module library development
  • AWS CDK constructs
  • IaC testing frameworks
  • GitOps pipeline setup
📐

Greenfield Platform Design

Architecture design for new products and platforms — from requirements through to reference architecture, ADRs, and implementation blueprints.

  • Architecture Decision Records
  • Reference architecture documentation
  • Service selection guidance
  • Proof-of-concept delivery
🔄

Architecture Transformation

Assess and evolve legacy AWS architectures — identifying bottlenecks, security debt, and modernisation opportunities, then delivering phased transformation plans.

  • Legacy architecture assessment
  • Technical debt mapping
  • Modernisation roadmap
  • Phased remediation delivery
Use Cases

When enterprise teams
need architecture help

01 / Platform Foundation

Enterprise landing zone build

Design and deployment of a multi-account AWS Organisation for a 500-person engineering organisation — with account vending, centralised security, federated identity, and network hub.

60+ AWS accounts under governance from day one
SSO with existing Active Directory
All infrastructure deployed as Terraform
02 / Well-Architected Remediation

Production risk reduction

Well-Architected Review of 12 production workloads identified 47 high-risk findings — a remediation programme reduced critical risks by 80% within three months.

47 findings → 9 residual risks in 90 days
Multi-AZ failover deployed for all critical workloads
IAM least-privilege remediations completed
03 / Greenfield Design

New SaaS platform architecture

Architecture design for a new enterprise SaaS platform — from blank page through to ADRs, reference architecture, ECS cluster design, and the IaC module library.

Architecture delivered in 3-week sprint
Terraform module library for all core services
Platform launched on schedule, zero rework
04 / Technical Debt

Legacy architecture modernisation

Assessment of a monolithic, single-AZ architecture supporting a critical application — phased modernisation to ECS microservices, Multi-AZ RDS, and IaC-managed infrastructure.

Single point of failure eliminated
99.95% uptime SLA achieved post-migration
Full IaC coverage from zero
Our Approach

Architecture that
earns trust

01

Discover & Understand

We start by understanding your business constraints, team capabilities, compliance requirements, and technical landscape — before recommending anything.

02

Design & Document

Reference architectures, ADRs, and sequence diagrams — decisions made explicit and documented so your team owns them long after we leave.

03

Build & Validate

Architecture implemented as code, tested against failure scenarios, and validated by your team — PoC or full production, delivered iteratively.

04

Transfer & Enable

Your team takes ownership — architectural principles, runbooks, and ongoing advisory support so you can evolve the platform with confidence.
