Architecture services

Enterprise architecture, designed to scale and built to be secure.

From the first whiteboard sketch to production, we design the systems, clouds, networks and data platforms your business runs on.

01

Solution Architecture

Enterprise architecture planning, system integration and scalability.

We map your business capabilities to a target architecture and a realistic roadmap to get there. Whether you are modernising a monolith, integrating acquired systems or planning for 10× growth, we design the structure first so every later decision has a home.

What you get

  • Current-state and target-state architecture
  • Integration patterns and system context diagrams
  • Scalability and capacity plan
  • Phased modernisation roadmap
02

Solution Design

Technical specifications, API design and security by design.

We turn architecture into buildable specifications your engineering team can pick up immediately. APIs are designed contract-first, and threat modelling happens on the whiteboard rather than after the penetration test.

What you get

  • Technical design documents
  • OpenAPI / AsyncAPI contracts
  • Threat model and security controls
  • Non-functional requirements and acceptance criteria
03

Network Architecture

Topology, segmentation, load balancing and CDN.

Secure, resilient networks across data centres, offices and cloud. We design segmentation that satisfies auditors, load balancing that survives peak traffic and edge delivery that keeps latency low for your users.

What you get

  • Network topology and segmentation design
  • Firewall and zero-trust access model
  • Load balancing and failover design
  • CDN and edge strategy
04

Public Cloud

Migration, serverless, containers and cost optimisation on AWS, Azure and GCP.

We plan and lead cloud migrations with landing zones, guardrails and a workload-by-workload strategy. Once you are there, we keep the bill honest with right-sizing, reserved capacity planning and FinOps reporting.

What you get

  • Cloud readiness assessment
  • Landing zone and account structure
  • Containers / Kubernetes and serverless reference designs
  • Cost optimisation and FinOps review
05

Hybrid Cloud

On-premise and cloud integration with unified identity.

Not everything belongs in the public cloud. We design hybrid estates that keep regulated or latency-sensitive workloads on-premise while giving teams one identity plane, one network and one way to operate.

What you get

  • Workload placement strategy
  • Hybrid connectivity design
  • Identity federation and SSO
  • Unified monitoring and operations model
06

Database & Data Modeling

Schema design, ETL pipelines and analytics platforms.

Good data models outlive the applications built on them. We design transactional schemas, data warehouses and the pipelines between them, with performance tuning and data governance built in.

What you get

  • Logical and physical data models
  • ETL / ELT pipeline design
  • Analytics and reporting architecture
  • Performance tuning and data governance
07

Mobile Architecture

Cross-platform apps, APIs, offline support and push notifications.

We architect mobile products that feel fast on patchy networks. That means the right cross-platform framework, backend-for-frontend APIs, offline-first sync and notification infrastructure that scales.

What you get

  • Framework selection (native, Flutter, React Native)
  • Backend-for-frontend API design
  • Offline sync and caching strategy
  • Push notification and analytics architecture
