Managed Cloud (Retainer)
Ongoing cloud operations, monitoring, and support on a monthly retainer.
Start Your ProjectYour AWS is built, now it needs to be run. We take on the ongoing operations, monitoring, patching, cost reviews, incident response, and the small improvements that keep an account healthy, on a predictable monthly retainer with no long lock-in.
- Proactive monitoring and alerting
- Incident response and on-call support
- Monthly cost and security reviews
- Patching and routine maintenance
- Backups and disaster-recovery checks
- A monthly report on health and spend
The infrastructure is built and live, but running it, monitoring, patching, cost, incidents, is pulling your engineers away from product, or no one truly owns it and you are quietly hoping it holds. You are past the build phase but not big enough for a dedicated platform team. This retainer is the senior operational cover for that stage: someone accountable for keeping the account healthy, without the cost of a full-time hire or the distance of a ticket-queue MSP.
How We Approach It
Take ownership
We onboard your account, set up proactive monitoring and alerting, and document it, so operational responsibility clearly sits with us.
Operate and respond
Patching, backups, DR checks, and incident response with on-call cover, handled by the senior engineer who knows your account.
Review monthly
A standing cost and security review plus a health-and-spend report, so drift and risk are caught early rather than discovered in an outage or invoice.
Improve incrementally
A set allowance of improvement work each month keeps the account getting better, all month to month so we earn the renewal.
The Difference It Makes
Always Covered
Someone senior watching your infrastructure.
Predictable Cost
