Problems we solve

The situations we're typically called into, what we investigate, and what tends to get better.

These are illustrative composites: realistic situations assembled from patterns we see repeatedly, not descriptions of specific clients. They show how we think; they are not somebody else's metrics wearing a logo.

01AWS costs growing without clear visibilityA growing company runs several environments across a handful of AWS accounts. Old instances are still up, several are oversized, storage only accumulates, and the bill has doubled in eighteen months. Finance sees one number; engineering sees none of it. Nobody owns the spend.maps to: Cloud Cost Optimization02Deployments that depend on one personReleases happen every other week, at night, run by the one engineer who knows the order of operations. The checklist lives in a doc that's almost current. Rollback is untested. Every release carries two weeks of changes, so every release is a big deal.maps to: DevOps Consulting03On-call that pages all nightTwenty-five pages per engineer per week, most acknowledged and ignored. Real incidents hide inside the noise. Postmortems produce action items nobody has time for, and the people carrying pagers have started interviewing elsewhere.maps to: Cloud & Infrastructure04Kubernetes adopted, operations an afterthoughtThe migration finished a year ago. The cluster runs, mostly. Upgrades are overdue, nobody is confident in the ingress setup, and the engineer who built it has left. Deploys work until they don't, and then nobody is sure where to look.maps to: Cloud & Infrastructure05The migration that stalled in the hybrid middleThe move to Azure started eighteen months ago. Compute went first and went fine. Then came the file servers, the line-of-business app with the vendor agent, and the SQL Server nobody fully owns, and the migration quietly stopped. Two estates now run in parallel, each billed in full, and every change has to be made twice.maps to: Microsoft Azure Consulting
