The landscape

Why UK enterprises are choosing hybrid cloud

According to Flexera's 2024 State of the Cloud report, 72% of enterprises now operate in hybrid environments, running workloads across a mix of public cloud providers and on-premise infrastructure. For UK organisations, this is not just a technology preference. It is driven by data residency requirements, legacy system dependencies, and the need to control costs as cloud spending continues to accelerate.

The UK cloud infrastructure market reached $12.3 billion in 2024, growing at 22% year-on-year. But Gartner estimates that over 60% of organisations overspend on cloud by at least 25% due to poor governance, idle resources, and misaligned pricing models.

A hybrid approach gives you the elasticity of public cloud where you need it, the control of private infrastructure where regulations demand it, and a consistent operational model across both.

Architecture

A complete infrastructure stack, layer by layer

Every layer is designed for resilience, security, and operational simplicity. No single point of failure, no configuration drift.

Layer 1Compute

Containerised workloads on Kubernetes

Applications packaged in Docker containers and orchestrated with Kubernetes. Auto-scaling based on demand, self-healing pods, and rolling deployments with zero downtime. Whether you run on AWS EKS, Azure AKS, or on-premise clusters, the abstraction layer stays consistent.

Layer 2Networking

Secure connectivity across environments

VPN tunnels, service mesh (Istio or Linkerd), and ingress controllers that route traffic intelligently. mTLS for service-to-service encryption, network policies for micro-segmentation, and observability baked into the network layer.

Layer 3Data

Managed databases with replication

PostgreSQL, Redis, and object storage configured for high availability. Automated backups, point-in-time recovery, and cross-region replication for disaster recovery. Data residency controls to keep UK customer data within UK data centres.

Layer 4Observability

Monitoring, logging, and alerting

Prometheus and Grafana for metrics, Loki for centralised logging, and PagerDuty or Opsgenie for alerting. Dashboards that show infrastructure health, application performance, and cost tracking in a single pane of glass.

Layer 5Security

Compliance-ready from the ground up

RBAC, secrets management with Vault, image scanning in CI pipelines, and audit logging for every change. Aligned with ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, and GDPR requirements. Security is not an afterthought, it is a design constraint.

Cost optimisation

Cut cloud spending without cutting capability

Most enterprises overspend on cloud by 25% or more. We identify where money is being wasted and implement changes that reduce costs permanently.

15-25%

Right-sizing

Most cloud accounts run instances two to four times larger than needed. We audit utilisation, recommend right-sized instances, and automate scaling policies.

20-40%

Reserved capacity

Committed-use discounts and savings plans for predictable workloads. We model your usage patterns and negotiate the optimal commitment term.

60-90%

Spot and preemptible

Batch processing, CI/CD runners, and dev environments shifted to spot instances. We handle interruption gracefully with checkpointing and queue-based architectures.

30-50%

Storage tiering

Lifecycle policies that move infrequently accessed data to cheaper storage tiers automatically. Most organisations store 80% of their data in the most expensive tier.

Built for regulated industries

Our infrastructure designs align with the certifications and frameworks your compliance team requires. Security and governance are embedded in every layer.

Our approach

Infrastructure as code, not infrastructure as hope

Every component we deploy is defined in code - Terraform for provisioning, Helm charts for Kubernetes workloads, and GitHub Actions for CI/CD. Nothing is configured manually. Nothing drifts from its intended state.

This means your infrastructure is version-controlled, auditable, and reproducible. If a region goes down, we can rebuild your entire environment from code in minutes, not days. If your team needs a staging environment that mirrors production, it is a single command.

We operate as an extension of your engineering team, not a black-box vendor. You get full visibility into every Terraform module, every Helm chart, every pipeline. Your team can maintain and evolve the infrastructure independently.

Ready to modernise your infrastructure?

Whether you are migrating to cloud, optimising existing spend, or building a hybrid architecture, we will help you get there without the risk.
