Cloud DevOps

Cloud and DevOps engineering that cuts cost and risk.

Introduction

If your hosting bill is creeping up, your deploys are slow and scary, or your team can't tell you what's actually running in production, the cloud isn't doing its job. Cogworks designs and runs Azure-native cloud infrastructure that scales with demand, deploys safely, and stays auditable. Built on Azure. Hardened against incidents. Tested before every release. So your platform costs go down as your traffic goes up. Foundation first. Improvements that compound.

About cloud DevOps

What is cloud DevOps?

Cloud DevOps is the practice of designing, deploying and running digital platforms on cloud infrastructure (typically Azure, AWS or Google Cloud) using engineering practices that automate deployment, monitoring and recovery. It covers infrastructure architecture, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, observability, security automation and cost optimisation.

At Cogworks, cloud DevOps is delivered as integrated platform engineering, not as standalone infrastructure consulting. The engineers who design your cloud architecture also build the platforms that run on it, so decisions are made end-to-end.

What we build

Azure cloud architecture

Cloud platforms designed for your workload, your scale and your security requirements. Azure-native by default, with multi-region, multi-environment and disaster recovery designed in from the start.

Cloud cost and sustainability optimisation

Right-sizing, autoscaling, container migration and dynamic resource allocation. So you stop paying for compute you don't use, and emissions go down with the bill.

CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code

Automated deployment pipelines that test before they release, infrastructure defined in code so environments are reproducible, and observability so you can see what's running and what's broken.

Migrations and modernisation

Planned migrations to Azure from on-premise or other clouds, version upgrades, and modernisation of legacy infrastructure into containerised, scalable architectures.
