AWS Cloud Architecture & Modernization
The Foundation Everything Else Runs On
AI doesn't work on broken infrastructure. Every AI system deployed here runs on AWS — over a decade of building on the platform. Whether you need greenfield cloud architecture, a legacy system modernized for AI workloads, or infrastructure costs under control, the same production discipline applies to infrastructure as to AI.
What Gets Built
Cloud Architecture
Greenfield AWS architecture or re-architecture of existing systems. VPC design, compute strategy, database selection, networking, security — built for your workload, not a generic template. For regulated industries (health-tech, fintech), compliance-ready architecture designed in from day one.
Legacy Modernization
Monolith-to-microservices migration, containerization, serverless adoption. Modernize what makes sense, leave what doesn’t — pragmatic, not dogmatic.
Cost Optimization
Right-sizing, reserved capacity planning, spot instance strategies, storage tiering. Most companies are overspending by 20–40% without knowing it.
DevOps & CI/CD
Infrastructure as code (Terraform/CDK), automated deployments, monitoring and alerting, incident response automation. The operational layer that keeps production stable.
Well-Architected Reviews
Formal AWS Well-Architected review across all five pillars: operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and cost optimization. Actionable recommendations, not a 40-page PDF.
The Approach
Over a decade on AWS — not just deploying, but architecting production systems across compute, storage, networking, security, and DevOps. Every AI engagement has an infrastructure layer. This isn't a side offering — it's foundational.
What Ships
- Architecture document with infrastructure diagrams and decision rationale
- Infrastructure as code (Terraform or CDK) — deployable, not theoretical
- CI/CD pipeline configuration
- Monitoring and alerting setup
- Cost optimization report with projected savings
How to Start
Discovery Call (Free, 30 min)
You describe your infrastructure situation. Initial feedback on where the biggest wins are.
Architecture Assessment ($5K–$15K, 2 weeks)
Comprehensive review of your current infrastructure, gap analysis, and a prioritized roadmap for improvement.
Implementation (Retainer or Project-Based)
Build out the infrastructure improvements. Can be structured as a fixed-scope project or an ongoing retainer for continuous improvement.
