Customised Cloud Solutions
– optimised for your business model
Today, more than ever, success in the business world is driven by speed. To survive in a fast-paced world, it is necessary that both your technical infrastructure and the culture and way of working within your development teams can keep up.
Are you looking for a future-proof cloud solution that is tailored to your needs and that you can implement effectively, efficiently and securely?
Empower your teams to develop in a focused, efficient way. Get access to flexible and scalable infrastructure. With a high level of automation, you can ensure traceability all the way through to production.
Our cloud engineers and consultants support you from strategic planning and the development of platforms to trainings and the introduction of DevOps models.
Together, we will find the individual cloud solution for your business model and develop it further in the long term!
Our services for your cloud success
We are passionate and experienced developers who like to work hands-on on the implementation.
-
Scalable Software Development Platforms
Allow your teams new degrees of freedom and more focus on creating added value. We support you in setting up your Internal Development Platform (IDP), Developer Self Services and virtualised Development Environments. A high degree of automation as well as DevOps and GitOps structures offer your teams more independence and speed as well as reduced waiting times.
-
Cloud Ready Software and Application Architectures
We support you in setting up your applications optimally and securely for the cloud. This enables you to exploit scaling, resource savings, fail-safety, and faster development cycles. Whether directly as a cloud-native application (for example as Functions as a Service) or while migrating applications to microservices with the corresponding API management.
-
Operation in the Cloud
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and GitOps are just two concepts that shape cloud operations. Our cloud engineers help you from the development of your cloud operating model to its implementation and introduction in the company. Whether it's setting up Kubernetes Clusters, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) Infrastructures such as monitoring, alerting and security concepts, we are happy to assist you.
-
Cloud Strategies
Is a public, private or hybrid cloud best for you? We support you in developing your individual cloud strategy. We are happy to accompany you along the entire path of your cloud roadmap. However, we are also available for specific aspects such as FinOps, compliance issues or the decision between Lift&Shift and Cloud-Native approaches.
-
The people in the cloud
Despite all the automation in the cloud, much of the success depends on the people who work on and with it. We support you through training, workshops and in establishing interdisciplinary collaboration such as DevOps Cultures and product and platform teams instead of project and feature teams.
Potential of Cloud Platforms and Architectures
For many companies, cloud services offer proven solutions to meet the dynamic market requirements and to react fast to new challenges. Agile development processes, high availability and demanding applications require a flexible and scalable IT infrastructure and a modern technology stack.
Individual Cloud Architectures
Large cloud providers such as Amazon, Microsoft or Google offer both infrastructure capacities (Infrastructure as a Service, Platform as a Service) and value-added services (e.g. databases as Managed Services) for on-demand use. That is done via standardized interfaces that enable a high degree of automation for configuring the required infrastructure (Infrastructure as Code). Typical challenges in the context of cloud projects are the selection of a suitable provider, the design of future-proof platform architecture and the integration into the existing IT environment and development processes (DevOps, Continuous Deployment etc.). As an alternative to the offerings of public cloud providers and depending on the use case at hand, it might also be worth considering to build a private cloud in your own data center or use hybrid operating models. In particular, container platforms such as Kubernetes offer a high degree of portability and can be used across providers. This also helps to avoid vendor lock-in.
Modern Software development with cloud-native technologies
A cloud environment also enables the use of various new technologies, which – as the name “Cloud Native” suggests – feel at home in the distributed environment and open up new dimensions, not only in terms of scaling. Especially within the context of increasing decentralization of application components (so-called Microservices), there are many exciting options that make, for instance, operating large service meshes easier and bring up completely new paradigms (e.g. serverless). Both, the enormous variety of technologies and the high speed with which these topics are developing can become quite challenging. We are happy to support you on your way to the cloud and plan, design and implement your individual cloud solution together with you.
Setting up a cloud-native environment is a complex undertaking. With our technology partner Giant Swarm, we offer you an all-round package.
