case study

A startup from zero to production

Cloud, CI/CD and security set up from day one, so a small team ships fast without overspending.

An early-stage startup needed real infrastructure but had no DevOps team and no time to waste. We set them up properly from day one and kept it lean.

// the challenge

Production-grade infrastructure without a DevOps hire

The startup needed to ship quickly, but shortcuts in early infrastructure tend to get expensive and painful to unwind once there are real users.

They had no in-house DevOps and wanted to avoid both over-engineering and a costly rebuild later.

// what we did

Our approach

01

Assess

Understood the product, stack and growth plans, and picked the right cloud and tooling.

02

Set up

Stood up the cloud, environments, CI/CD and security as Infrastructure as Code.

03

Automate

Automated deployments so a small team can ship safely and often.

04

Optimise

Right-sized resources to keep the cloud bill low as the product grows.

// results

The outcome

  • Production-ready cloud, CI/CD and security from day one.
  • Everything as Infrastructure as Code, ready to scale without a rebuild.
  • A small team shipping safely without a dedicated DevOps hire.
  • Cloud costs kept low through right-sizing and automation.
