Digital Product #3 · Cloud Advisory
A structured AWS, Azure, and GCP architecture audit — uncovering security gaps, wasted spend, and scalability bottlenecks — with a prioritised action plan delivered in 2 weeks.
Fixed fee · 2-week delivery · Board-ready report guaranteed
The Audit
Our assessment covers every critical dimension of your cloud environment — not just cost, but security, resilience, compliance, and long-term scalability. Most clients are surprised by what we find.
Unused resources, right-sizing opportunities, reserved instance strategy, and savings plan analysis. We typically identify 20–40% in recoverable spend.
IAM policies, network security groups, encryption at rest and in transit, vulnerability exposure, and compliance posture (SOC2, GDPR, HIPAA).
Auto-scaling configuration, load balancing, database performance, CDN usage, and capacity planning against your growth projections.
Multi-region failover, backup policies, RTO/RPO validation, and single points of failure that could bring your systems down.
Well-architected framework alignment, microservices vs. monolith trade-offs, API design, and technical debt assessment.
CI/CD pipeline maturity, Infrastructure as Code adoption, monitoring and alerting coverage, and deployment frequency assessment.
How It Works
We work within your environment with read-only access. No disruption to production systems. No consultants camped in your office for months.
We agree on scope, request read-only access to your cloud accounts (AWS IAM role, Azure reader role, or GCP viewer role), and brief your team on what to expect.
We systematically audit your cloud environment across all six dimensions — automated scanning combined with expert manual review of architecture patterns, policies, and configurations.
1-hour sessions with your cloud/DevOps team and engineering leads to understand context behind architecture decisions and validate our findings.
We size every finding by impact, effort, and urgency — and build a prioritised action plan your team can execute immediately vs. plan for longer term.
We present findings to your team and leadership, walk through every recommendation, and hand off all deliverables in editable formats. You own everything.
