From strategy to operations.

Every engagement runs the same four phases. Where you join us depends on what's already done. Where we hand back depends on what you need. Each phase is scoped per engagement.

/01

Assess

Discovery, current-state mapping, and strategy.

  • Discovery workshops with stakeholders
  • Current-state architecture mapping
  • Capability and gap analysis
  • Target-state options
/02

Architect

Future-state design and the business case.

  • Target-state architecture
  • Network, security, and data design
  • IaC blueprints and integration patterns
  • Board-level presentation and ADRs
/03

Build

Implementation, integration, and release.

  • Infrastructure as Code in Bicep or Terraform
  • CI/CD pipelines and environments
  • Migration, integration, and security hardening
  • Acceptance testing and release
/04

Operate

Handover, advisory, and continuous improvement.

  • Knowledge transfer to internal teams
  • Operational runbooks and release process
  • FinOps, security, and architecture reviews
  • Ongoing advisory as needed

Always experimenting. We run internal labs alongside client work, on agentic systems, AI patterns, and emerging cloud architectures. What we learn there shapes how we assess and architect for clients.

Expert-led cloud services, end to end.

From strategy through production. We architect, build, automate, and hand you the keys.

Cloud Migration

Azure landing zones, AWS, GCP. Lift-and-shift or re-architect. We plan the move, execute it, and make sure it works in production.

Security and Zero Trust

Identity-first security with Microsoft Entra ID, conditional access, network segmentation, and WAF. Compliance-ready from day one.

AI and Copilot

Azure AI Foundry, M365 Copilot readiness, and responsible AI strategy. We are building hands-on experience to bring these to your team.

Network Architecture

Hub-spoke topologies, private endpoints, DNS, ExpressRoute, and SD-WAN. Designed for security and performance at scale.

DevOps and IaC

Bicep, Terraform, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps. Every resource defined in code, every deployment repeatable and auditable.

FinOps

Azure cost management, right-sizing, reserved instances, and tagging strategies. Know what you spend and why.

Infrastructure as code. Every time.

We automate everything. Azure resources with Bicep, workflows with Python, and frontends with modern frameworks.

Real work, real outcomes.

How we deliver, drawn from our work with Scalene Solutions.

Audit Read more

Azure environment assessment against the Well-Architected Framework

Full audit of Scalene Solutions' Azure environment. Identified gaps in security, reliability, and cost management. Delivered a prioritised remediation roadmap.

Redesign Read more

Application Gateway and WAF architecture for private container workloads

Replaced public-facing AKS ingress with Application Gateway and WAF. Centralised SSL, enabled host-based routing, and removed all public endpoints.

Migration Read more

AKS to Azure Container Apps for a fleet of retail microservices

Migrated dozens of microservices from self-managed Kubernetes to serverless Container Apps. Reduced infrastructure overhead by 70% and tripled deployment speed.

Automation

Bicep IaC templates with dynamic loop-based provisioning

Built reusable Bicep modules that provision Application Gateway listeners, backends, probes, and routing rules from a parameter array. New services deploy in minutes.
