AWS cloud & DevOps

AWS cloud infrastructure for web apps, SaaS products and internal systems.

QalbIT designs and operates AWS environments for Laravel, Node.js, React/Next.js and mobile backends. We focus on clear architectures, automation, security and cost control, so your cloud setup is understandable and maintainable – not a black box.

AWS cloud overview

AWS cloud solutions that match your product stage and team

We help you use AWS in a way that is robust and realistic – from first deployments to more advanced architectures with multiple environments and services.

When AWS with QalbIT makes sense

  • You are moving from shared hosting or a single VPS to a more reliable cloud setup.
  • You already use AWS but lack clear documentation, monitoring or cost control.
  • You want a stable base for SaaS, APIs or internal tools with room to grow later.
  • You prefer a partner who explains trade-offs instead of pushing unnecessary complexity.

Outcomes we typically target with AWS work

  • Clear, documented environments for development, staging and production.
  • Improved uptime and performance for web apps, APIs and background jobs.
  • Stronger security baselines around access, networking and data protection.
  • Predictable monthly AWS costs with sensible budgeting and alerts.

We usually start with a short AWS audit, then prioritise practical improvements to stability, security and cost before introducing more advanced services.

What we do on AWS

AWS capabilities across architecture, migration and DevOps

Our AWS work connects directly to your applications – Laravel, Node.js, Next.js, Flutter backends and more – rather than cloud diagrams for their own sake.

Architecture & environment design

Architecture

Architecture & environment design

Designing AWS environments for web and SaaS products including VPC, subnets, security groups, load balancers and managed databases.

Migrations to AWS

Migration

Migrations to AWS

Planning and executing migrations from shared hosting or on-premise servers to AWS EC2, RDS and other managed services.

DevOps & CI/CD

DevOps

DevOps & CI/CD

Setting up automated deployments, zero-downtime releases and environment management with Git-based workflows.

Security, monitoring & cost optimisation

Operations

Security, monitoring & cost optimisation

Hardening access, configuring backups and alerts, and tuning AWS usage to keep performance high and waste low.

Talk through your AWS setup

How AWS projects work with QalbIT

A practical process for AWS migrations and ongoing operations

We combine architecture, DevOps and day-to-day operations so your AWS environment supports the product instead of slowing it down.

  1. 01

    Discovery & current-state review

    1–2 weeks

    Discovery & current-state review

    Understand your applications, current hosting or AWS usage, traffic patterns, compliance needs and pain points.

    Key outcome: Clear picture of what exists today and what must improve first.

  2. 02

    AWS architecture & migration plan

    1–3 weeks

    AWS architecture & migration plan

    Design target AWS architecture, choose appropriate services and define a step-by-step migration or improvement plan.

    Key outcome: Documented AWS design with environments, services and rollout approach.

  3. 03

    Implementation & deployment automation

    3–8+ weeks (scope-dependent)

    Implementation & deployment automation

    Set up infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, environment configs and application deployments to AWS.

    Key outcome: Applications running on AWS with repeatable deployments and basic monitoring.

  4. 04

    Hardening, monitoring & cost tuning

    2–4 weeks

    Hardening, monitoring & cost tuning

    Tighten security, configure logging and alerts, and optimise resource sizing and services for cost and performance.

    Key outcome: Hardened environments with visibility into health, incidents and spend.

  5. 05

    Ongoing DevOps & cloud support

    Ongoing, month-to-month

    Ongoing DevOps & cloud support

    Provide ongoing DevOps help for deployments, incidents, scaling events and roadmap changes.

    Key outcome: A stable AWS platform that evolves alongside your product.

Where AWS is usually the right fit

AWS use cases we most often deliver

Most of our AWS work connects directly to product teams who need stable infrastructure for real applications, not just experiments.

SaaS platforms & APIs

For SaaS founders and engineering leads

SaaS

Multi-environment setups for SaaS apps, public APIs and internal services with predictable deployments and monitoring.

Modernisation from shared hosting

For Teams outgrowing shared hosting

Modernisation

Moving from cPanel, shared hosting or a single VPS to a structured AWS environment with staging and production.

Internal tools & line-of-business apps

For IT and operations teams

Internal tools

Secure AWS deployments for internal portals, admin dashboards and reporting tools.

Event-driven and serverless components

For Products needing flexible processing

Serverless

Using AWS Lambda, SQS and related services for background jobs, webhooks and integrations where they make sense.

Cloud stack & tooling

AWS stack we typically use at QalbIT

We favour a practical subset of AWS – EC2, RDS, S3 and related services – paired with sensible automation and observability.

Core AWS services

Foundational services for most projects.

  • EC2 and Auto Scaling groups for application servers where appropriate.
  • RDS (MySQL/PostgreSQL) for managed relational databases.
  • S3 for asset storage, backups and static content.

Networking & security

Keeping environments isolated and secure.

  • VPC design with public/private subnets and sensible routing.
  • Security groups, NACLs and IAM roles aligned with least privilege.
  • HTTPS everywhere, certificate management and secure bastion access.

DevOps & automation

Making deployments repeatable and safe.

  • CI/CD pipelines (for example GitHub Actions) deploying to AWS.
  • Infrastructure as code using tools like Terraform or CloudFormation when relevant.
  • Blue/green or rolling deployment strategies for critical services.

Monitoring & cost management

Keeping visibility on health and spend.

  • CloudWatch metrics, logs and alarms for applications and infrastructure.
  • Error tracking and APM tools integrated with application code.
  • Cost monitoring, tagged resources and budget alerts to avoid surprises.

If you already have an AWS environment, we work with what you have first, then gradually improve structure, security and automation.
