Cloud solutions overview

Cloud solutions and DevOps services for migration, modernisation and growth

We help technology and operations teams move to the cloud, stabilise existing setups and introduce DevOps practices. The goal is simple: fewer incidents, smoother deployments and cloud bills that make sense for your stage.

When cloud solutions with QalbIT make sense

  • You want to migrate from on-premise or shared hosting to AWS, Azure or Google Cloud with minimal disruption.
  • Your current cloud setup feels fragile, slow or expensive – and you need a structured review and remediation plan.
  • You are building or running SaaS / web applications and need CI/CD, environments and rollback strategies that just work.
  • You want to modernise a legacy application, database or monolith without a risky “big bang” rewrite.
  • You prefer a senior, founder-led team who can talk architecture with technical stakeholders and trade-offs with business owners.

Outcomes we usually target with cloud projects

  • A stable, well-documented cloud environment with clear responsibilities and access controls.
  • Faster, more predictable deployments through CI/CD and improved release practices.
  • Better performance and uptime for your applications, APIs and background workers.
  • Visibility into costs with budgets, alerts and optimisation recommendations.
  • A practical roadmap for further modernisation, security hardening and automation.

For cloud and DevOps work we typically start with an assessment of your current infrastructure, deployments and costs, then propose a phased roadmap for migration, stabilisation and ongoing improvements.

What we build and manage in the cloud

Cloud solution capabilities across migration, DevOps and optimisation

From first migration to ongoing DevOps and cost optimisation, we design and operate cloud environments that support your product roadmap rather than block it.

Cloud migration & re-platforming

Migration

Cloud migration & re-platforming

Plan and execute migrations from on-premise, shared hosting or other clouds to AWS, Azure or Google Cloud – including lift-and-shift, re-platforming and phased modernisation.

Cloud-native application architecture

Architecture

Cloud-native application architecture

Design cloud-ready architectures for web apps, APIs and background workers using managed services, containers and resilient patterns that fit your stage.

DevOps, CI/CD & automation

DevOps

DevOps, CI/CD & automation

Set up CI/CD pipelines, environment strategies, blue-green or canary deployments and automated rollbacks so your team can ship frequently without fear.

Infrastructure as Code (IaC)

IaC

Infrastructure as Code (IaC)

Codify your infrastructure using tools like Terraform or CloudFormation so environments are reproducible, reviewable and easy to evolve.

Monitoring, logging & reliability

Reliability

Monitoring, logging & reliability

Implement monitoring, alerting and logging across applications and infrastructure so you can detect issues early and respond quickly.

Security, governance & cost optimisation

Governance

Security, governance & cost optimisation

Introduce sensible security baselines, access controls, backup strategies and cost reviews that keep your cloud environment safe and cost-effective.

How cloud projects work with QalbIT

A practical cloud migration and DevOps process

We follow a structured but lightweight process so cloud changes are safe, visible to stakeholders and aligned with your product roadmap.

  1. 01

    Cloud assessment & discovery

    1–2 weeks

    Cloud assessment & discovery

    Review your current infrastructure, deployments, monitoring and costs. Clarify goals such as stability, speed, compliance or cost reduction.

    Key outcome: Assessment report, prioritised issues and a high-level migration or improvement plan.

  2. 02

    Architecture & migration planning

    1–3 weeks

    Architecture & migration planning

    Define target cloud architecture, environments, networking, data migration strategy and DevOps approach with a realistic sequence of phases.

    Key outcome: Architecture decisions, migration plan and agreed scope for the first implementation phase.

  3. 03

    Implementation & migration

    3–8+ weeks (scope dependent)

    Implementation & migration

    Set up cloud resources, CI/CD, monitoring and security baselines. Execute migrations in controlled steps with rollbacks defined.

    Key outcome: Production workloads running on the new or improved cloud environment with minimal disruption.

  4. 04

    Stabilise, observe & optimise

    First 4–8 weeks after go-live

    Stabilise, observe & optimise

    Tune performance, refine alerts, close security gaps and review cloud costs once real traffic flows through the new setup.

    Key outcome: Stable environment with improved visibility, fewer incidents and clearer cost profiles.

  5. 05

    Ongoing DevOps & managed cloud

    Ongoing, month-to-month

    Ongoing DevOps & managed cloud

    Continue with a flexible DevOps or managed cloud engagement to support releases, environments and incremental improvements.

    Key outcome: Predictable support and evolution of your cloud environment aligned with product priorities.

Want to see how this process applies to your current stage? Share a short brief and we will respond with a tailored next step.

Where cloud solutions help most

Cloud solution use cases we most often deliver

Most of our cloud work sits around SaaS products, internal tools and business-critical web applications that need better reliability, performance and deployment practices.

Lift-and-shift with structured modernisation

For SMEs and teams with legacy apps

Migration

Move from on-premise or shared hosting into the cloud with a clear plan for incremental refactoring instead of a risky big rewrite.

Re-architecting legacy apps for cloud

For Growing product and engineering teams

Modernisation

Break monoliths into better-separated services, adopt managed databases and queues, and introduce clear deployment pipelines.

DevOps & managed cloud for SaaS

For SaaS founders and CTOs

Managed cloud

Provide ongoing DevOps, monitoring and infrastructure changes for SaaS products that need to keep shipping without scaling an in-house ops team.

Hybrid and multi-cloud environments

For Enterprises and regulated industries

Hybrid / multi-cloud

Connect on-premise systems with cloud workloads, or operate across more than one provider where it makes sense for resilience or compliance.

Cloud stack & tooling

Cloud platforms, tooling and stacks we typically use

We work with the major cloud providers and common DevOps tooling. The exact stack depends on your product, traffic profile and internal skills – we avoid over-engineering when simpler options are enough.

Cloud platforms & core services

Foundational services across the main cloud providers.

  • AWS (EC2, RDS, S3, CloudFront, ECS/EKS, Lambda) for flexible, battle-tested cloud workloads.
  • Microsoft Azure (App Service, AKS, Azure SQL, Storage, Functions) where Microsoft stack or compliance is key.
  • Google Cloud Platform (GCE, GKE, Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage) for data-heavy and container-focused workloads.

Runtime, containers & orchestration

How your applications and services actually run.

  • Docker-based containers for consistent packaging and deployment.
  • Kubernetes (EKS, AKS, GKE) where orchestration and scaling across services is required.
  • Managed PaaS options (Elastic Beanstalk, Azure App Service, etc.) when speed and simplicity beat full control.

Automation & Infrastructure as Code

Keeping infrastructure reproducible and reviewable.

  • Terraform and CloudFormation for Infrastructure as Code across environments.
  • GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps and similar tools for CI/CD pipelines.
  • Automated database migrations, backups and environment provisioning.

Monitoring, logging & security

Observability and security practices around your workloads.

  • Cloud-native monitoring (CloudWatch, Azure Monitor, Google Cloud Monitoring) plus tools like Grafana and Prometheus.
  • Centralised logging for applications and infrastructure with sensible retention policies.
  • Role-based access control, secrets management and backup / recovery strategies aligned with your risk profile.

Already in the cloud? We can review your current setup, pipelines and costs, then suggest improvements rather than throwing everything away.
