Cloud Infrastructure: AWS/GCP
Cloud setup and operations. Includes Infrastructure as Code (IaC), High Availability (HA), FinOps Cost Optimization and VPC Networking — delivered by…
Cloud infrastructure is the foundation your applications run on. IQDigital designs cloud-native infrastructure on AWS and Google Cloud, provisioned with infrastructure as code such as Terraform, built across availability zones and regions for high availability, secured with segmented VPC networking and kept lean with FinOps practices like auto-scaling and committed-use discounts.
Who it's for
- Companies moving to the cloud that want more than a lift-and-shift
- Teams whose cloud bill grows faster than their traffic
- Businesses that cannot afford downtime when a data centre fails
What is cloud infrastructure?
The cloud is not just a place to store data; it is the operating system of the modern enterprise. IQDigital architects hyper-scale Cloud Infrastructure on AWS (Amazon Web Services) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) that is resilient, cost-optimized, and secure by design. We reject 'Lift and Shift' migrations that simply move inefficiencies to the cloud. We practice 'Cloud-Native' re-architecture.
How infrastructure as code and high availability work
We utilize 'Infrastructure as Code' (IaC) tools like Terraform and Google Cloud Infrastructure Manager to provision environments. This means your entire infrastructure is version-controlled, auditable, and reproducible in minutes. We design 'Multi-Availability Zone' (Multi-AZ) and 'Multi-Region' architectures to ensure High Availability (HA)—if one data center goes dark, your application stays lit.
How we control cloud costs
We obsess over 'FinOps.' We implement auto-scaling groups that spin up resources only when traffic spikes and shut them down when it drops. We utilize Preemptible VMs and Committed Use Discounts to slash compute costs by up to 70%. We configure robust VPC (Virtual Private Cloud) networking, establishing the digital perimeter that protects your assets. We build the bedrock upon which your business scales.
What's included
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC) — Terraform/Infrastructure Manager for automated provisioning.
- High Availability (HA) — Multi-region architecture to prevent downtime.
- FinOps Cost Optimization — Preemptible VMs and sustained use discounts.
- VPC Networking — Segregating public and private subnets for security.
How an engagement runs
- Diagnose (Week 1) — We find the money before we spend yours.
- Build (2–8 weeks) — Senior engineers. Your stack. Weekly proof.
- Launch (Go-live) — Released against a baseline, not a hope.
- Compound (Ongoing) — The second month should beat the first.
How the work is scoped
- Engagement: Fixed-scope project · optional managed support
Questions about Cloud Infrastructure
Do you work with AWS or Google Cloud?
Both: Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Platform, designed cloud-native rather than copying on-premise setups into the cloud.
What is infrastructure as code?
Defining infrastructure in version-controlled code with tools such as Terraform, including Google Cloud Infrastructure Manager, so environments are auditable and can be reproduced reliably.
How do you keep the application available if a data centre fails?
With multi-availability-zone and multi-region architectures, so the application keeps running when one location goes down.
How do you reduce cloud costs?
Through FinOps: auto-scaling that adds resources only when traffic rises, plus preemptible VMs and committed-use discounts for predictable workloads.
