Applications & APIs
Functional and technical design, development, integration, testing and modernisation of critical applications.
- Modular architecture and APIs
- DevSecOps and automated quality
- Migration and debt reduction
Build & operate
From software to infrastructure: build it right, then make it run.
Custom development, architecture, cloud, automation and operations are treated as one and the same service product. You avoid the break between the team that delivers and the team that will have to maintain.
Build & run
An engineering chain with no blind spot.
We can take over an existing estate, build a new platform or drive a progressive transformation. The scope is defined by the capabilities expected, not by a list of technologies to place.
Cloud & digital sovereignty
Containerised foundations, managed services, private, public or hybrid cloud according to digital sovereignty, localisation, legal exposure and operational requirements.
- Landing zones and governance
- Kubernetes and application platforms
- FinOps and capacity management
Infrastructure & network
Systems, storage, network, identity, backup and automation documented as components of the service.
- Infrastructure as code
- Segmentation and access
- Backup and recovery
Operations & SRE
Observability, incident management, changes, capacity and continuous improvement aligned with business impact.
- SLAs, SLOs and useful indicators
- Monitoring and framed on-call
- Blameless post-mortems
Delivery standards
What is delivered must be readable, operable and transferable.
Code alone is not a sufficient deliverable. Every component joins a body of technical and operational evidence maintained alongside it.
Decisions
Architecture dossier, ADRs, dependencies, threat model and accepted risks.
Construction
Sources, pipelines, tests, controlled dependencies and acceptance criteria.
Operations
Runbooks, alerts, backup, capacity, incident procedures and changes.
Handover
Inventory, access, documentation, training and an up-to-date reversibility plan.
Keeping systems in working order
Operating is not waiting for the incident.
Operations put a control loop in place: observe, decide, change, verify. Indicators are chosen to reflect service experience and risk, not to fill a monthly report.
The right service level is contractual.
Availability, support windows, response times, recovery objectives and responsibilities are matched to the criticality of each service.
| Domain | Steering | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Availability | SLOs per critical journey | Measurement and incident history |
| Changes | Risk, approval, window | Traceability and outcome |
| Vulnerabilities | Criticality and remediation time | Inventory and exceptions |
| Capacity | Trend and thresholds | Forecast and trade-off |
Continuity & reversibility
The exit is prepared from day one.
A lasting relationship does not need to be captive. Repositories, configurations, inventories, secrets, procedures and knowledge are organised so that a transfer is possible without rebuilding the information system blind.
- 1
Protect the assets
Repositories, accounts, subscriptions and data are placed under a control defined with the client.
- 2
Maintain the knowledge
Documentation evolves with changes and with real operations.
- 3
Prove the recovery
Restores and continuity scenarios are executed, timed and corrected.
- 4
Transfer cleanly
Plan, responsibilities, assistance and completion criteria are defined before the exit is needed.
Frequently asked questions
Engaging an engineering or operations mission.
Can you take over an existing infrastructure or application?
Yes. A discovery phase establishes the inventory, the dependencies, the immediate risks and the level of documentation. The takeover is then organised in stages so that a lack of visibility is not turned into additional risk.
Do you impose a cloud or a technology?
No. The choice follows from criticality, available skills, expected sovereignty, total cost and reversibility. Any technical preference has to be argued against these criteria.
Do you offer 24/7 operations?
The level of coverage is defined for each service. Where extended continuity or on-call is required, the set-up, the escalation chain and the commitments are specified contractually.
