Practice: Cloud, DevOps & Reliability
Run the system your customers rely on, without paging engineers at 3am.
Summary
Customers don't care whether an outage came from a bad deploy, a misconfigured cache, or a query that got away from someone — they just leave, and they tell people why. The teams that keep them around usually aren't smarter, they just have cloud architecture that fits the workload, delivery pipelines with enough discipline to be boring, and observability that flags a problem before a customer does.
We work alongside product and platform teams to get to that point: architecture sized to the actual traffic, CI/CD that makes releases a non-event, and the SRE basics — SLOs, an on-call rotation people can live with, incident reviews that produce fixes instead of blame — that turn reliability into a habit rather than a hope.
Who it's forEngineering leaders whose platform has outgrown its original infra, or whose customers have started to notice the outages.
Outcomes
- ▸Boring, predictable releases
- ▸SLOs your team can actually meet
- ▸Cloud bill aligned with revenue
What we deliver
Business capabilities, not line items.
Each deliverable is a business outcome you can name, and measure, not a stack of hours.
Cloud architecture & IaC
AWS, GCP, Azure, or Cloudflare architectures designed for the actual workload, no over-provisioned reference architectures nobody understands.
CI/CD & release engineering
Preview environments, blue/green or canary deploys, automated rollback, releases become uneventful, not heroic.
Observability that pays off
Logs, metrics, and traces wired to dashboards and alerts that actually trigger action, not walls of green graphs nobody reads.
SLOs, on-call, and incident response
Realistic SLOs, a rotation that engineers agree to, and post-incident reviews that produce fixes, not blame.
Cost engineering
Right-size the cloud bill without breaking prod: compute, storage, egress, and third-party SaaS all reviewed for value delivered.
How we deliver
The tech, kept honest.
The stack is a means, not the sell. We pick tools the team taking this over can hire for and maintain.
- Terraform / Pulumi IaC
- GitHub Actions / CircleCI pipelines
- Datadog / Grafana / OpenTelemetry
- AWS, GCP, Cloudflare Workers
