What You Get.

Common Container Infrastructure

Our common infrastructure is based on AWS Fargate* and includes:

  • Secure private networking
  • Load balancing (including HTTPS)
  • Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
  • Separated production and pre-production environments

Application Blueprint

You'll also get a blueprint for your application services:

  • A CI/CD pipeline**, including automated tests and blue/green deploys
  • Basic load balancer health checks
  • Straightforward scaling
  • A simple "hello world" application as an example

Customisations

With the platform in place we can customise it to your specification, including:

  • Migrating one, or all, of your existing applications
  • More environments, to suit your workflow
  • Application discovery
  • Integration with your existing Infrastructure as Code
  • Other auxiliary services such as queues and caches
  • and more...

* Our AWS Fargate implementation uses Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS). Amazon EKS is available as a bespoke deployment option if you need a Kubernetes deployment.
** Our out-of-the-box CI/CD pipeline is based on GitHub Actions. Other options are available as customisations.

How does it work?

You'll benefit from our experience in operating containers at scale for other SaaS businesses.

Design & Planning Workshop.

We'll capture your business and technical requirements to tailor our container platform blueprint.

Common Container Infrastructure & Application Blueprint

We'll deploy the common container infrastructure based on AWS Fargate with a simple "hello world" application to serve as a demo. The example application will serve as a blueprint for your own services.

Customisations

We'll then work with you to customise the platform to your specification, introduce bespoke components (such as queues, databases, and caches), and migrate your applications across.
