AWS Consulting: Architecture You Can Build and Operate

AWS consulting is most useful at three points: before you build, when something feels fragile or expensive, and when you are preparing to scale. We give you a clear picture of where you are, what to change first and how to build it.

Our recommendations come with working implementation: Terraform code, pipelines and runbooks, not just slide decks. For ongoing operation after the project, see AWS managed services.

How we review a workload

The AWS Well-Architected Framework organises good practice into six pillars. We use it as a checklist of questions, then turn the answers into a prioritised list rather than a long report.

What you receive

• An architecture diagram that matches what is actually deployed
• Findings ranked by risk and effort, so you know what to fix first
• A cost estimate for the target design
• Terraform for the agreed baseline and a CI/CD pipeline to apply it
• Runbooks for the incidents you are most likely to see

Start with remote state

One of the first things we set up on any new build is remote, locked Terraform state, so more than one person can change infrastructure safely.

terraform {
  backend "s3" {
    bucket       = "example-tfstate"
    key          = "prod/network/terraform.tfstate"
    region       = "ap-south-1"
    encrypt      = true
    use_lockfile = true # S3-native state locking in recent Terraform versions
  }
}
