AWS promises simplicity but delivers complexity. Businesses struggle with security risks and compliance requirements that divert developers from core product work.
Without AWS expertise, you face vulnerabilities, technical debt, and market delays while competitors race ahead.
Traditional consultancies worsen this by prioritizing billable hours over outcomes.
We take the opposite approach, focusing exclusively on business outcomes by eliminating AWS complexity, accelerating your developers, and securing your infrastructure through:
Deploying a Secure Landing Zone
- Multi-account architecture with strict security boundaries
- 100% score on CIS AWS Foundation Benchmark
- 96% rating on AWS foundational security best practices
- Manage user access securely on AWS via Single Sign-On (SSO)
- Full AWS CDK implementation (Infrastructure as Code)
- Multi-region deployments supported
- Cross-account monitoring and security alerts
- View our Roadmap for all implemented and upcoming features
Upskilling and accelerating your developers
- They get access to our production-ready, security-hardened AWS CDK components
- They receive AWS best practices guidance to prevent technical debt
Providing support and maintenance
- Landing Zone gets updates and security patches
- Priority Slack/Teams support for infrastructure challenges
- Quarterly security and cost optimization assessments to stay compliant and reduce AWS costs
What This Means For Your Business
- 30% Lower TCO: Cut Total Cost by 40% through right-sized resources while eliminating the $150K+ cost of a specialized AWS hire.
- Accelerate Development: Redirect 30% of engineering time from infrastructure to revenue-generating features with pre-built, compliant CDK components.
- Compliance-Ready Infrastructure: Meet security requirements from day one with architecture that speeds up audit preparation by 90% for SOC 2, HIPAA, and other security frameworks.
