Six dense practices, delivered by senior cloud architects.
CloudSkill engagements pair an opinionated point of view with the seniority required to deliver complex multi-cloud programs end-to-end. Every service line below ships against fixed-fee milestones and the SLOs we agree at scoping.
Multi-Cloud Migration
End-to-end migration programs across AWS, Azure, and GCP. We run discovery, dependency mapping, wave planning, and cutover automation — engineered for zero-downtime delivery of mission-critical workloads.
- Application and dependency discovery with automated CMDB enrichment
- 6R disposition: rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retire, retain
- Wave planning with runbook automation and rehearsed cutover windows
- Database migrations with continuous replication and reversible cutover
- Mainframe and legacy modernization with strangler-fig refactor paths
FinOps & Cost Optimization
Continuous savings programs that pair architectural rightsizing, commitment management, and unit-economics reporting with the cultural change required to make them stick across product and finance.
- Rightsizing across EC2, RDS, AKS, GKE, BigQuery, and Snowflake
- Reserved instance and savings plan portfolio management with hedging
- Spot and preemptible adoption playbooks for stateless and batch tiers
- Per-tenant, per-feature unit economics with allocation pipelines
- Anomaly detection, budget guardrails, and weekly cost office hours
Cloud Architecture & Landing Zones
Greenfield landing zones, network topology, identity, and disaster recovery blueprints designed against your regulatory, latency, and cost constraints. Architecture that scales without being rebuilt.
- Account, subscription, and project hierarchy with policy-as-code
- Hub-and-spoke and mesh network designs with transit and peering
- IAM, SSO, and PAM integration with least-privilege baselines
- Multi-region and multi-cloud disaster recovery patterns
- Reference architectures handed to your team with skills transfer
Platform Engineering
Internal developer platforms built on Kubernetes, Terraform, and golden-path pipelines. We invest in the substrate that lets product teams ship safely on paved roads — and stay there.
- EKS, AKS, and GKE production hardening with cluster fleet management
- GitOps with Argo CD, Flux, and progressive delivery patterns
- Service catalogs and developer portals (Backstage, Port)
- Self-service provisioning with Crossplane and Terraform Cloud
- Golden-path CI/CD with policy enforcement and supply-chain security
Security, Compliance & Zero-Trust
Identity, network, and policy controls designed before workloads land — not retrofitted under audit pressure. SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI, and ISO control mappings enforced continuously through code.
- CSPM hardening and continuous compliance automation
- Zero-trust network designs with workload identity
- Secrets management and rotation with Vault, KMS, and Key Vault
- SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI, ISO 27001, and FedRAMP control mappings
- Threat modeling and security architecture reviews
SRE & Observability
SLO design, error-budget governance, and full-stack telemetry across logs, metrics, and traces. We stand up incident command at production scale and transfer the practice to your team.
- SLO and error-budget design for product-aligned reliability
- Full-stack telemetry with OpenTelemetry, Datadog, Grafana, Honeycomb
- Incident command, blameless retros, and on-call rotation design
- Chaos engineering and game-day programs
- Capacity planning and load-test automation
