AWS Cloud Solutions & Consulting

Amazon Web Services is the world's leading cloud platform — offering over 200 services that can power virtually any software workload at any scale. Barquecon helps businesses architect, migrate to and optimise AWS environments that are secure, cost-efficient and built to the AWS Well-Architected Framework.

AWS gives you access to infrastructure that would take years and millions to build on-premise — but only if it is architected and configured correctly. Poorly designed AWS environments are expensive to run, difficult to secure and fragile under load. Barquecon builds AWS environments following the Well-Architected Framework, using Infrastructure as Code from day one, so your cloud is reliable, secure and cost-controlled.

AWS Services We Deliver

AWS Architecture Design

Well-Architected Framework reviews and new architecture design — covering reliability, performance, security, cost optimisation and operational excellence pillars.

AWS Migration

Migrating on-premise workloads or other cloud environments to AWS — using the 6R migration strategies with zero-downtime cutover planning and rollback procedures.

Serverless on AWS

Lambda-based event-driven architectures with API Gateway, SQS, SNS, EventBridge and Step Functions — eliminating server management for appropriate workloads.

Containerisation & EKS

Dockerised application deployment on Amazon ECS/Fargate and EKS — Kubernetes at scale with managed node groups, Helm charts and GitOps-based deployments.

AWS Security & Compliance

IAM least-privilege, VPC design, KMS encryption, GuardDuty, Security Hub, Config rules and CloudTrail — building and auditing secure AWS environments.

AWS Cost Optimisation

Reserved Instance and Savings Plan analysis, right-sizing recommendations, Spot Instance adoption and unused resource cleanup to meaningfully reduce your AWS bill.

Our AWS Engagement Approach

Phase 1 — Assessment

Current State Review

Understanding your workloads, costs and requirements before designing anything.

  • Existing AWS account or infrastructure audit
  • Well-Architected Framework assessment
  • Cost and security risk identification
  • Target state architecture proposal
Phase 2 — Foundation

Account Structure & Security

Setting up a secure, well-organised AWS foundation before workloads are deployed.

  • AWS Organisations and multi-account structure
  • IAM policies, roles and access controls
  • VPC, subnets, NAT Gateway and security groups
  • CloudTrail, Config and GuardDuty enabled
Phase 3 — Build or Migrate

Infrastructure as Code

All AWS resources defined in Terraform or CloudFormation — version-controlled and reproducible.

  • Terraform modules for all infrastructure components
  • Separate environments (dev / staging / prod)
  • CI/CD pipeline for infrastructure changes
  • Automated rollback on deployment failure
Phase 4 — Operate & Optimise

Monitoring & Cost Control

Full observability and ongoing cost management after go-live.

  • CloudWatch dashboards and alarms
  • Cost Explorer and AWS Budgets setup
  • Monthly AWS cost review (optional retainer)
  • Runbook documentation and team knowledge transfer

Why Barquecon for AWS?

Infrastructure as Code from Day One

Every AWS resource we create is defined in Terraform or CloudFormation — meaning your infrastructure is version-controlled, repeatable and not locked to one engineer's knowledge.

Security Is Not Optional

IAM least-privilege, encrypted storage, VPC segmentation and GuardDuty are set up in the foundation phase — not as afterthoughts when a security review is looming.

Transparent Cost Management

We build cost visibility in from the start — resource tagging, budget alerts, Cost Explorer dashboards and monthly reviews so your cloud spend never becomes a surprise.

Knowledge Transfer Included

We document everything and train your team — the goal is that your engineers understand and own the AWS environment after we hand it over, not permanent dependency on us.
