Cloud Computing

AIGard designs and builds cloud-native infrastructure on AWS, Azure and Google Cloud that scales with your product and stays cost-efficient. We define it as code so it's repeatable and auditable.

The work typically covers:

• Cloud architecture design
• Infrastructure as code
• Container and Kubernetes platforms
• Networking and security setup
• Cost optimization
• Monitoring and reliability

Cloud Computing is usually the right investment in one or more of these situations:

• You're building a new product in the cloud
• Cloud bills are rising without explanation
• Environments are set up by hand
• You need GPU capacity for AI workloads

On a 30-minute scoping call we confirm whether it fits your case and recommend a team shape and first milestones.

The right cloud provider depends on your existing stack, your team's skills and your workloads. AIGard works across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud and recommends on that basis.

Because we work across all three, the recommendation is not tied to one provider. We review your current architecture first, and whichever provider is chosen, we define the infrastructure as code so that it is repeatable and auditable.

Yes, AIGard can help reduce cloud costs. We review usage, right-size resources and fix the largest sources of waste first.

Starting with the largest sources of waste directs effort to where it has the most effect on the bill. The review also helps explain bills that have been rising without a clear cause, and monitoring keeps spending visible afterward. The savings available depend on what the review finds.

Yes. Engineers work inside your cloud accounts under least-privilege access, following your access policies.

Access is reviewed as roles change and removed when work ends. Our practices align with ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR and HIPAA.

By agreeing security and reliability requirements up front, automating delivery, and checking each change before release.

Code reviews, dependency checks and secure credential handling are part of the development process, and changes are released in controlled steps rather than in one cutover where that is avoidable.

For Cloud Computing, AIGard engineers typically work with AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform and Cloudflare.

The stack is selected to fit the systems you already run, and engineers are matched to it before they join.

Cloud Computing is available through any of AIGard’s three engagement models: staff augmentation, where engineers join your team; a dedicated team that runs the workstream; or software outsourcing, where AIGard delivers a defined project.

The choice depends on how much of the delivery you want to manage, and it can change later under the same agreement.

Engineers typically start within two to four weeks of the scoping call. The exact date depends on the roles, seniority and number of people required.

We confirm a realistic start date in writing before you commit, and you meet the proposed engineers before work begins.

AIGard engineers typically cost 30–50% less than the fully loaded cost of a comparable US-based hire, with no recruiting fees, benefits overhead or insurance costs on your side.

The figure for a specific engagement depends on the model, the roles, the seniority mix and the size of the team. We issue a written proposal after the scoping call, so the commercial terms are agreed before any work starts.

NDAs are signed before any access is given, and engineers work inside your environment under least-privilege access, with permissions limited to their responsibilities.

Access is reviewed as roles change and removed when work ends. Our practices align with ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR and HIPAA, with PII masking, encryption and audit logging built into data work. We review your access policies, data-handling needs and vendor requirements during scoping.

You do. Intellectual property assignment is written into every contract, in every engagement model.

That covers source code, designs, documentation, data, models and prompts produced for you. Third-party components and their licenses are identified, so ownership is clear at handover.
