Capabilities

What we ship

Every engagement starts with a clear list of what we are responsible for and what your team owns.

  • Cloud native application development on AWS, GCP, and Cloudflare
  • DevOps consulting services and CI/CD pipeline engineering
  • Infrastructure architecture and Terraform module design
  • API gateway development with rate limits, auth, and observability
  • Site reliability engineering with SLOs, alerts, and runbooks
  • Cloud cost optimization and right-sizing for growth-stage teams
How we engage

A predictable path from scoping to handoff

Every engagement runs the same path so your team always knows what is happening this sprint and what ships next.

  1. Infrastructure scoping

    Two weeks to map the current infrastructure architecture, the SLOs you care about, and the smallest releasable improvement.

  2. Foundations sprint

    Terraform modules, CI/CD pipeline, observability baseline, and an incident runbook in production within four weeks.

  3. Cloud cost iteration

    Two-week sprints scoped against SLOs, error budgets, and unit cost. We instrument before we optimize.

  4. Platform handoff

    Runbooks, ADRs, and pairing sessions move ownership to your team. We stay on a small retainer for incident response.

Outcomes

What success looks like in production

Outcomes from recent engagements. We measure and report them weekly during the engagement, not just at the end.

  • p95 latency reductions of 30–60% via right-sized infrastructure
  • Cloud cost reductions of 20–40% on growth-stage AWS bills
  • Mean time to recovery under 30 minutes on production incidents
  • Zero-downtime deploys via blue-green and canary release patterns
  • Audit-ready Terraform state with per-environment access controls
Technology stack

A boring, audited stack

We default to the tools with the longest production track record. Boring is a feature, not a bug.

FAQ

What buyers ask us

What does AWS cloud consulting include at Dashhold?
AWS cloud consulting at Dashhold covers infrastructure architecture, Terraform module design, cost optimization, IAM hardening, and SRE practices. Most engagements are scoped against a specific outcome — cost reduction, latency improvement, or audit-readiness.
Do you offer DevOps consulting services as part of a build?
Yes. Every build engagement includes DevOps consulting services: CI/CD pipeline design, observability baseline, runbooks, and on-call rotation setup. The DevOps work is part of the engagement, not a separate retainer.
Can you handle cloud native application development from scratch?
Cloud native application development is the default for every new build we take on. Containers or serverless where appropriate, Terraform for infrastructure, OpenTelemetry for observability, GitOps for deploys, and SLOs from sprint one.
Do you provide infrastructure architecture for growth-stage teams?
Most clients come to us during the growth-stage scaling phase. Infrastructure architecture work typically involves splitting a monolith, sharding a database, or moving from a single-region to multi-region posture without disrupting production traffic.
How does API gateway development fit into a cloud engagement?
API gateway development is part of most cloud engagements: rate limiting, auth, request validation, audit logging, and observability — usually on Kong, Cloudflare, or AWS API Gateway, depending on where the rest of the platform lives.
