AWS DevOps Competency validated

Faster releases, reliable operations and a lower cloud bill.

Cloud cost is the single biggest worry we hear from technology leaders, ahead of security and regulation. Most of that cost is not the cloud. It is over-provisioned servers nobody dares to turn off, releases that need a weekend and a war room, and a team that spends its week firefighting instead of building. DevOps done properly lowers the bill and speeds up delivery at the same time.

Your alternatives

What most organisations try first, and the trade-off.

A local managed service provider

Good at keeping lights on, usually built around VMs and tickets, rarely able to automate deployments or re-architect for cost.

Hire a DevOps engineer

One person cannot cover 24x7, and certified AWS platform engineers are among the scarcest skills in the region.

Keep doing manual releases

Zero upfront cost, and a slow, steady tax on every feature your business asks for.

Our commitments

What you can expect from us.

  • Infrastructure defined in code and reviewed like software
  • Deployments that take minutes, roll back automatically and happen during business hours
  • A platform team on your time zone with an on-call rota you can call at 3 a.m.
  • A monthly FinOps review that finds savings and books them
  • Security and compliance checks built into the pipeline, not bolted on at audit time

Questions

Common questions

Can you bill us in local currency?

In many markets we can offer local-currency invoicing and consolidated AWS billing, which removes forex volatility from your monthly cloud bill. Ask us about eligibility in your country.

Do you take over from our current MSP?

Yes, and we do it in stages. We shadow for a period, document everything, then cut over with a shared on-call until you are confident.

What SLA do you offer?

Standard tiers run from business-hours support to 24x7 with 15-minute response for critical incidents. Every tier includes a monthly service review.
