Cloud Infrastructure Setup

Production-grade cloud environments designed and deployed with security-first principles.

We design and deploy cloud landing zones with governance guardrails, network segmentation, and Infrastructure as Code. Every environment follows security-first architecture principles from day one.

The Transformation

BEFORE
Ad-Hoc Infrastructure
✕
Flat network
No segmentation or isolation

Manual provisioning
Console-based, inconsistent
✕
No governance guardrails
Uncontrolled resource creation
✕
Shared credentials
Broad access, no RBAC

No audit trail
Limited visibility into changes
AFTER

Landing Zone Design — AWS & Azure

Production-grade cloud environments with security-first architecture.

AWS Architecture
AWS Multi-AZ High Availability ArchitectureAWS high availability design: Route 53 DNS failover routes through CloudFront CDN and AWS WAF to an Application Load Balancer. Traffic splits across two availability zones, each with ECS app tier and RDS database. RDS Primary synchronously replicates to RDS Standby. Shared services include ElastiCache Redis and S3 static assets. CloudWatch monitors all layers.EDGE LAYERRoute 53 — DNSCloudFront CDNAWS WAFApplication Load BalancerAvailability Zone AECS App TierRDS Primary — PostgreSQLAvailability Zone BECS App TierRDS Standby — Replicasync replicationSHARED SERVICESElastiCache RedisS3 Static AssetsCloudWatch Logsmonitors
Azure Architecture
Azure Hub & Spoke Landing ZoneAzure landing zone: On-premise data centre connects via VPN Gateway to a Hub VNet with Azure Firewall, Bastion Host, and Log Analytics. Three spoke VNets peer through the firewall: Production (AKS, Azure SQL, Key Vault), Staging (App Service, Azure SQL), and Data Platform (Data Lake, Data Factory).On-PremiseFirewallActive DirectoryHub VNetShared ServicesVPN GatewayAzure FirewallBastion HostLog Analyticsidentity syncProductionAKS — 3 NodesAzure SQLKey VaultStagingApp ServiceAzure SQL (GP)Data PlatformData Lake Gen2Data Factorysecure access

Use Cases

Scenario

A new fintech company needs a production-ready cloud environment with proper network isolation and compliance-ready architecture.

Solution

Hub-spoke VNet architecture with dedicated management, workload, and DMZ segments, deployed entirely via Terraform for repeatability.

Outcome

Secure, auditable cloud environment ready for regulated workloads from day one.

Scenario

An enterprise operating multiple business units needs isolated cloud environments with centralized governance.

Solution

Multi-account / multi-subscription strategy with shared networking hub, centralized logging, and role-based access boundaries.

Outcome

Each business unit operates independently while security and compliance policies are enforced centrally.

Why This Matters

Improve provisioning repeatability through Infrastructure as Code

Reduce security exposure with proper network segmentation

Establish governance guardrails before workloads are deployed

Support compliance requirements with auditable configurations

Frequently Asked Questions

What Infrastructure as Code tools do you use?

We use Terraform, ARM templates, and CloudFormation depending on the target cloud platform. All infrastructure is version-controlled and repeatable.

Do you design multi-cloud environments?

Yes. We design environments across Azure, AWS, and Alibaba Cloud with proper network segmentation, centralized logging, and governance guardrails for each.
