Cloud Management

Ongoing AWS/Azure/GCP operational care—cost hygiene, IAM basics, and environment stability.

Cloud Management is a monthly operating partnership for cloud accounts: environment hygiene, IAM and network guardrails, cost anomaly review, and change support within plan capacity. Focus stays on operable baselines—not unlimited architecture rewrites each month.

From $149 / seat / month

Who it’s for

  • Teams with cloud estates but limited platform bandwidth
  • Companies post-migration needing operational continuity
  • Startups that outgrew ad-hoc console changes

Problems we address

  • Cloud spend and orphaned resources drift unnoticed
  • IAM exceptions accumulate
  • Nobody owns routine platform chores

Expected outcomes

  • Recurring cloud hygiene checklist
  • Change support within reserved capacity
  • Monthly notes on risk, cost, and completed work
