Insights, guides, and best practices for AWS cloud infrastructure from our team of certified consultants.
AWS's sovereign partition went GA in January with no UK region on the roadmap. Before your security workstream turns that into a blocker, work out whether anyone actually wrote down a sovereignty requirement - because residency and sovereignty are not the same thing.
Migration programmes don't usually stall on the technology. They stall in discovery, where chasing complete dependency data becomes a substitute for making a risk-based call. Here's the tiered approach and six-week structure that actually gets wave one moving.
Two years on from the BSL relicensing, OpenTofu is no longer a protest fork — it is running production estates. Here is what actually breaks, what stays the same, and how to plan a migration that ships without theatre.
Control Tower is a sensible starting position, not a destination. We look at the four failure modes UK enterprises hit as their multi-account estate scales — Account Factory drift, SCP sprawl, the shared services tar pit, log archive blast radius — and the patterns that actually fix them.
EKS Auto Mode has been in general availability for over a year. After running it across regulated and high-throughput workloads, here's where it genuinely removes toil — and the four delivery patterns where you should still keep your hands on the wheel.
Most enterprise Copilot rollouts have plateaued at AI autocomplete. The jump to Level 3 agentic workflows is not a model problem. It is a platform engineering problem — and here is the concrete AWS stack that unlocks it.
Most AWS engineering teams spend too much time navigating internal processes and not enough building. Backstage and Crossplane together offer a practical foundation for developer self-service — reducing friction, eliminating toil, and letting your platform team scale without scaling headcount.
Most UK enterprises leave their AWS security posture to chance. Here's how to harden your estate with Service Control Policies, GuardDuty, and controls that map directly to NCSC guidance.
Most organisations aren't overpaying for AWS because of pricing. They're overpaying because nobody owns the problem. Here's how to fix that.
