Cloud Architecture + Development

Cloud application development and architecture on Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud. Document databases, relational DBs, serverless, storage, and cloud-native services.

Executive Practice Overview

Printable Practice Report & Technical Brief

Review our printable executive summary, core capability highlights, architecture workflows, and targeted technology stack for this practice.

View Executive One-Sheet →
  • ✓ Enterprise cloud application engineering on Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
  • ✓ Serverless micro-functions, containerized applications (Docker), and orchestrated clusters (Kubernetes)
  • ✓ Durable relational persistence (PostgreSQL, SQL Server) and distributed NoSQL storage (Cosmos DB, DynamoDB)
  • ✓ High-speed in-memory caching with Redis clusters for session state and sub-millisecond data lookups
  • ✓ Continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines with GitHub Actions and Terraform/Bicep

Cloud-Native Infrastructure Architecture

Multi-tier cloud deployment on Azure combining App Service, managed PostgreSQL, Redis caching, and automated CI/CD.

Engineering Workflow & Milestones

01

Cloud Topology & Security Planning

Establish virtual networks, subnet boundaries, identity controls (IAM/Entra ID), and data compliance protocols.

02

Infrastructure Provisioning (IaC)

Codify app services, databases, caching layers, and security policies via Terraform and Bicep scripts.

03

Application Services & Integration

Develop containerized backend APIs, asynchronous event handlers, background processors, and queue consumers.

04

Observability & Disaster Recovery

Configure health probes, centralized logging (Application Insights / CloudWatch), and geo-redundant backup policies.

Performance & Scale Benchmarks

99.95%
Availability Target

Resilient multi-region and auto-scaling topology designed for uninterrupted enterprise availability.

Automated
CI/CD Deployment

Fully automated deployment pipelines with zero manual server intervention.

Optimized
Cost Governance

Right-sized compute reservations and autoscaling rules avoiding wasteful cloud spend.

Engagement & Collaboration Models

Dedicated Build Pods

Autonomous engineering squads with technical direction, senior gameplay or backend engineers, and QA integration to accelerate sprint velocity.

Architecture Audits & Spikes

Targeted 2-week technical discovery sprints to de-risk platform boundaries, benchmark rendering performance, and establish system blueprints.

Full-Cycle Co-Development

End-to-end partnership embedded alongside internal studio leads from initial concept prototyping through commercial storefront release.
