Hybrid cloud, DevOps, network and platform architecture

Production-grade delivery across on-prem, Azure, OCI and AWS.

IT Band designs and implements secure cloud foundations, Kubernetes platforms, CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, observability and hybrid connectivity for teams that cannot afford fragile infrastructure.

Problems we solve

When cloud, legacy infrastructure and delivery pressure collide.

01

Cloud migration is stuck

Old environments, unclear ownership and security constraints slow down the move to cloud.

02

CI/CD exists, but releases still hurt

Pipelines lack promotion flows, approvals, rollback strategy, policy checks and observability.

03

Infrastructure is hard to change safely

Terraform, state, imports, networking and secrets need structure before teams can move faster.

04

Kubernetes needs an operating model

Clusters are only useful when platform, security, ingress, logging and team workflows are clear.

Services

Architecture and implementation for serious production environments.

The strongest work is where enterprise infrastructure meets modern delivery: data centers, cloud, Kubernetes, networks, security controls, CI/CD, observability and team enablement.

Cloud foundations

Cloud Architecture & Landing Zones

Secure foundations for Azure, OCI and AWS with governance, IAM, network segmentation, environment strategy and operational guardrails.

  • Landing-zone design
  • IAM and network baseline
  • Environment model
  • Migration roadmap

Hybrid reality

On-Prem Integration & Networking

Connect modern cloud platforms with existing data centers, VMware estates, VPNs, DNS, routing, firewalls, identity and legacy operating models.

  • Hybrid connectivity
  • VPN and routing design
  • DNS and identity alignment
  • On-prem to cloud transition plan

Delivery systems

DevOps, CI/CD & GitOps

Repeatable delivery pipelines for infrastructure and applications using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, Jenkins and OCI DevOps.

  • Pipeline architecture
  • Promotion and rollback flows
  • Policy gates
  • Release automation

Platform layer

Kubernetes & Platform Engineering

Production-ready AKS, OKE, EKS and self-managed Kubernetes platforms with Helm, ingress, secrets, multi-tenancy and team enablement.

  • Cluster architecture
  • Helm delivery model
  • Ingress and secrets setup
  • Golden paths for teams

Automation

Infrastructure as Code

Terraform, Terragrunt, Terramate, Bicep and Ansible practices that make infrastructure auditable, reusable and safer to change.

  • Terraform modules
  • State strategy
  • Import and drift controls
  • IaC review workflows

Operations

Observability, Reliability & Security

Monitoring, logging, alerting, secrets, certificates and SLO practices for systems that must be operated under real production pressure.

  • Dashboards and alerts
  • Runbooks
  • Vault and Key Vault patterns
  • Audit-ready logging

Experience map

Categorized from real project history, not invented service copy.

Enterprise Cloud & Migration

  • Data center to Azure migration for large enterprise workloads
  • Swiss banking migration foundations on OCI and DRCC
  • Cloud architecture from scratch for regulated environments

Public Sector & Regulated Platforms

  • Secure OCI and Kubernetes platforms for public-sector workloads
  • Terraform-first governance, compartments, IAM and auditability
  • High availability and disaster recovery patterns for sensitive data

Azure PaaS, Power Platform & Integration

  • Azure resource modernization with Terraform, Terragrunt and Bicep
  • Private integration between Power Platform, AKS and .NET APIs
  • Azure DevOps pipelines for application and infrastructure delivery

Network, Systems & On-Prem Foundations

  • VMware ESXi/vCenter and mixed Linux/Windows operations
  • VPN, DNS, DHCP, routing, firewalling, reverse proxies and load balancers
  • Monitoring, backups, identity, patching and legacy operational controls

Product & Application Delivery

  • Backend, frontend, mobile and API delivery pipelines
  • Gaming, financial, PLM and enterprise application environments
  • Trusted engineering network for Python, Go, Java, PHP, .NET and frontend work

Engagement models

Start with clarity, then build what can be operated.

Technical range

Cloud-native depth backed by network and systems foundations.
