Move to an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) methodology to automate the building of reusable infrastructure and creation of disposable test environments.

• Automating configuration management
• Service orchestration
• Cloud provisioning
• Application deployment

Adopt containerisation for infrastructure-independent code.

Add a layer of abstraction away from host operating systems to make your applications portable and able to run across environments and platforms.

• Container orchestration for automating deployment
• Scaling and management of containerised applications

Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery is the extension of a DevOps culture enabling your applications development teams to deliver changes frequently and reliably.

• Choosing the right workflow for infrastructure provisioning
• Adopting GitOps practices
• Build pipeline development
• Operational support for automation and testing

The more you use the Public Cloud, the greater the opportunity to save (or overspend). Choose the right infrastructure, the right purchasing options and measure and report your spend accurately.

• Resource tagging strategy for analysis and reporting
• Creation of multiple Billing Accounts for internal financial entities
• Reserved Instance planning and management
• Custom monitoring and alerting for estimated charges

For a periodic review, or due to changes in your regulations or systems, we conduct external security and governance audits of all aspects of your Public Cloud accounts.

• Identity and Access Management including roles, accounts, MFA, passwords and key management
• Creating Virtual Private Clouds or Networks and subnets within the cloud and secure connections to the cloud
• Storage recommendations including encryption, immutability and backup
• Logging, monitoring alerting and auditing using both native and external tools
