Cloud infrastructure that costs what it should and does what you need.
AWS, Azure, and GCP — architecture, migration, and ongoing optimization. 18 years of infrastructure delivery means we've seen cloud bills that shocked CFOs and architectures that buckled under load. We prevent both.
Why teams choose us
Cloud should get cheaper as you scale — we make sure it does.
Multi-cloud isn't a goal — it's a consequence of good architecture. We design for your requirements and let the right cloud follow. Vendor lock-in is a real cost; so is premature abstraction. Our cloud practice is built on FinOps principles from day one — every resource tagged, every dollar allocated, every anomaly detected before the invoice arrives.

SDTC Digital FinOps practice
Infrastructure as Code — always
Every resource defined in Terraform, Pulumi, or CloudFormation. Version controlled, peer reviewed, and reproducible. No ClickOps, no snowflake servers, no configuration drift.
FinOps from day one
Cost allocation tags, budget alerts, reserved instance planning, and anomaly detection configured before a single production workload runs. Cloud economics is an engineering discipline, not an afterthought.
Security by design
Zero-trust network architecture, least-privilege IAM, encryption at rest and in transit, secrets rotation, and compliance controls built into the architecture — not audited in after the fact.
Migration without downtime
We've migrated systems processing millions of daily transactions with zero downtime using strangler fig patterns, blue-green deployments, and rehearsed cutover procedures.
Platforms and tools we deliver with
We're certified across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Every project gets the cloud that fits the workload — not the cloud we have the most certifications in.
The broadest service catalog and the deepest enterprise ecosystem. Our most-deployed cloud for greenfield builds and complex migrations.
Container orchestration for microservice architectures. ECS for simplicity, EKS when your team needs the full Kubernetes ecosystem and portability.
Event-driven serverless compute for workloads with variable demand. Step Functions for orchestrating multi-step workflows with built-in retry and error handling.
Managed relational databases with automated backups, failover, and read replicas. Aurora for high-throughput applications that need MySQL or PostgreSQL compatibility at scale.
Global content delivery and object storage. The foundation for static asset serving, media storage, and the CDN layer that keeps latency under 50ms worldwide.
Multi-account strategy with SCPs, permission boundaries, and the least-privilege policies that prevent the blast radius of a compromised credential.
Migration without the midnight outage
We've moved enterprises to the cloud — and between clouds — without losing a transaction.
Every migration starts with a workload assessment and dependency map, not a slide deck. We categorize workloads by migration strategy — rehost, replatform, refactor, or retire — and build a sequenced migration plan with rehearsed cutover procedures. The rollback plan exists and has been tested before we touch production. We've migrated legacy .NET monoliths to containerized microservices on AWS, Oracle databases to Aurora PostgreSQL, and on-premise VMware estates to Azure — all while the business kept running.

Common questions about cloud engineering
From 18 years of infrastructure delivery — the questions every team asks before a cloud engagement.
Based on your workload characteristics, existing vendor relationships, team familiarity, and specific service requirements — not which cloud we prefer. AWS for the broadest service catalog and most mature ecosystem. Azure if you're a Microsoft shop with Entra ID, Office 365, and an existing Enterprise Agreement. GCP for data-intensive workloads where BigQuery and Vertex AI are central to the architecture. Many enterprises run multi-cloud — we design for that reality when it makes sense and advise against it when it doesn't.

Cloud Architecture Design
We design cloud architectures that handle your target scale from day one. Every architecture decision is documented in an ADR (Architecture Decision Record) with rationale, alternatives considered, and trade-offs accepted. We model costs before provisioning and load-test against 10x expected traffic before launch.
architectures designed and deployed
FinOps as a practice, not a project
Cloud spend visibility that makes the CFO a fan of engineering.
Most organizations discover their cloud costs are 30-40% higher than they need to be. The problem isn't the cloud — it's the lack of cost engineering discipline. We embed FinOps practices into your cloud operations so cost optimization is continuous, not a quarterly fire drill.
Cost allocation and tagging
Cost allocation and tagging
Every resource tagged by team, environment, project, and cost center. Showback and chargeback reporting that lets engineering leaders own their budgets.
Reserved capacity planning
Reserved capacity planning
Usage pattern analysis to identify committed use discount opportunities — reserved instances, savings plans, and committed use contracts that reduce baseline costs by 30-60%.
Anomaly detection
Anomaly detection
Automated cost anomaly alerts that fire within hours of unexpected spend — not 30 days later when the invoice arrives. Includes automated remediation for common patterns like orphaned resources.
Right-sizing and scheduling
Right-sizing and scheduling
Continuous instance right-sizing based on actual utilization data, plus non-production environment scheduling that stops paying for dev and staging clusters at midnight.
How we deliver cloud infrastructure — methodically.
Discovery and architecture
Workload analysis, compliance requirements, cost modeling, and architecture design documented before a single resource is provisioned. The architecture decision record explains every significant choice.
Foundation build
Account structure, networking, IAM, and security baseline deployed first. Everything that follows is built on a foundation that is secure, compliant, and cost-visible from the start.
Infrastructure delivery
All infrastructure defined in Terraform, deployed through CI/CD, and validated with automated compliance checks. Environment parity between staging and production guaranteed by the same code deploying both.
Workload migration or deployment
Applications deployed or migrated with monitoring, alerting, and log aggregation active from the first production request. Staged rollout with automated rollback triggers.
Optimization and handover
30-day post-deployment review — right-sizing instances, activating reserved capacity, tuning autoscaling, and documenting runbooks. Structured handover to your team or transition to our managed operations.
Built for the traffic you hope for
Infrastructure that handles Black Friday without a 3 AM phone call.
We design for the scale your business is planning for — not just the traffic you have today. Auto-scaling policies tested under synthetic load before production launch. Multi-AZ deployments with automated failover. Circuit breakers and graceful degradation so partial outages don't become total outages. Our cloud architectures have sustained 99.99% uptime across clients processing everything from healthcare records to e-commerce transactions at peak holiday volume.
