Flagship engagement

Ninety days. One closed cycle.

A closed cycle from first audit to a monitored production system, with one operator accountable for all four phases.

The four phases

Sprint timeline, four phases across twelve weeks Assess, architect, implement and observe run in sequence along a twelve week axis, and each phase boundary drops an artefact: a risk map at week three, recorded decisions at week six, live pipelines at week nine, and handover at week twelve, where the engagement ends. phase week artefact assess architect implement observe cost · failure modules · networks terraform · ci/cd dashboards · alerts modes · releases rollback per change weekly increments runbooks · cost clean exit week 00 week 03 week 06 week 09 week 12 risk map decisions pipelines live handover remediation order recorded in repo environments built runbooks · alerts Sprint timeline, four phases across twelve weeks Assess, architect, implement and observe run in sequence along a twelve week axis, and each phase boundary drops an artefact: a risk map at week three, recorded decisions at week six, live pipelines at week nine, and handover at week twelve, where the engagement ends. clean exit week 00 · 03 week 03 · 06 week 06 · 09 week 09 · 12 artefact · risk map artefact · decisions artefact · pipelines live artefact · handover assess architect implement observe

  1. Assess

    A deep read of the running infrastructure: cost drivers, failure modes, security posture, and how releases actually reach production today. Access stays read-only until there is a reason for it not to be.

    What lands Risk map, cost analysis, ranked remediation order

    Before the next phase Nothing is built until the ranked order is agreed in writing.

  2. Architect

    The target platform described in code before anything is built: modules, environments, network boundaries, and the rollback path for every change. Decisions are recorded where they can be argued with later, not settled in a chat thread.

    What lands Reference architecture, IaC module plan, decision records

    Before the next phase Build starts once the module plan and the environment boundaries are settled.

  3. Implement

    Terraform modules and delivery pipelines built for production, shipped in weekly increments so the platform is usable long before the sprint closes.

    What lands Production-ready IaC, CI/CD pipelines, environments

    Before the next phase The phase closes when your team can deploy through the pipeline unaided.

  4. Observe

    Monitoring, alerting, and cost visibility wired in, with runbooks written for the people who will hold the pager after handover. Alerts are tuned against signals the platform actually produces instead of shipped at defaults.

    What lands Dashboards, alerts, runbooks, cost reporting

    Before the next phase Handover completes once an alert has been answered without CloudWarrior on the call.

Every artefact stays in your repository. If the engagement ends, nothing leaves with it.

Scope and duration are set per engagement. The audit stands alone if a full sprint is not the right next step.

Where this work bites hardest

Sectors with the sharpest platform pressure, and what usually breaks first
Sector Why the pressure is real What usually breaks first
Aviation and MRO Strict service levels and compliance obligations leave no room for improvised recovery. Legacy infrastructure with no code description behind it
Media and broadcasting Load arrives in spikes tied to events rather than to a predictable daily curve. Scaling behaviour and delivery cost
Fintech Regulation makes security posture and audit trail a delivery requirement, not a later phase. Compliance evidence and access control
E-commerce Revenue concentrates into short seasonal windows where deploy speed decides the quarter. Autoscaling headroom and release cadence
Travel technology Users are distributed globally and latency is felt directly in conversion. Multi-region topology and failover
Manufacturing and FMCG Migration off on-premise systems runs alongside production that cannot pause. Migration sequencing and monitoring coverage

The two halves of the build

Free 48-hour infrastructure audit

The form takes three answers. What comes back within 48 hours is a written read of the platform: where the spend concentrates, what fails first, and the order to fix it in. No call is required to receive it.

What comes back

  • Where the cloud spend concentrates, by service and by cause.
  • The failure modes that would bite first under load or on call.
  • A remediation order: what to fix now, what can wait, what to leave alone.
  • A straight no when the fit is wrong, with a name from the wider network instead.

Where the findings land.

Used to place the platform in context.

Cost, reliability, release speed, on-call load. Two sentences is enough.

Answers are used to reply to this request and nothing else. No list, no sequence. Privacy.

Scripts are off, so this form cannot hand the request on. The same three answers work as plain mail: address, company, and what is going wrong right now. Write to pat@cloudwarrior.io.
