AWS and Cloud Services
Amazon Web Services can run almost anything, which is exactly why environments become expensive and hard to follow. QDCD helps organizations decide what belongs on AWS, design an architecture that fits the workload, migrate without surprises and keep the monthly bill and the security posture under control.
AWS architecture built around workloads, performance and business requirements.
Strong AWS architecture starts with understanding the workload, traffic patterns, storage needs, data requirements and availability expectations before selecting services.
QDCD combines cloud discovery, workload assessment, architecture reviews, networking, compute, storage, database requirements and deployment strategy into one practical AWS cloud architecture. Services such as EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, CloudFront, Route 53 and IAM can be considered where they fit the workload. For existing AWS environments, the review can also identify overbuilt resources, fragile dependencies, access issues or architecture that no longer matches how the application is actually being used. Broader hosting requirements can also be coordinated through cloud hosting.
TALK TO USAWS services built around the infrastructure your applications need
QDCD can plan AWS environments around compute, storage, databases, serverless workloads, networking and content delivery.
EC2
S3
RDS
Lambda
CloudFront
Route 53
Connect AWS infrastructure to applications, databases and deployment workflows.
AWS environments become more useful when compute, storage, databases, DNS, networking and deployment workflows are planned together instead of as disconnected services.
QDCD can coordinate AWS infrastructure with data and databases, DNS, SSL, networking, deployment workflows, application configuration and connected services. Migration planning can include dependency mapping, staging, testing, backups, cutover sequencing and rollback options so production workloads are moved with fewer surprises. AWS environments can also support systems integration and API integration by providing scalable infrastructure for connected applications and services.
START A PROJECT
AWS environments designed to stay maintainable as workloads and costs change.
AWS environments should be documented, monitored and reviewed so application growth, resource use, security settings and cloud costs stay aligned with the workload.
QDCD can support AWS environments with CloudWatch monitoring, backup planning, IAM and access reviews, VPC planning, resource right-sizing, cost analysis, troubleshooting and ongoing optimization. That includes reviewing whether compute, storage, database and networking resources still match the application's actual needs, whether access is broader than necessary and whether cloud spending is aligned with business value. AWS work can also connect with website and application support so infrastructure and application maintenance stay coordinated.
BUILD FOR WHAT’S NEXTWhat AWS work includes
We size the environment to the workload rather than to a reference diagram.
Built around the principles that make AWS environments stronger
Purpose-Built
AWS services are selected around the workload, application architecture and business requirements rather than using every available cloud service by default.
Resilient
Backups, monitoring, scaling and recovery planning help AWS environments stay available as workloads and infrastructure change.
Optimized
Monitoring, resource reviews and cost analysis make it easier to understand where AWS performance or spending can be improved.
Governed
Documentation, IAM controls, architecture standards and change-management practices make AWS environments easier to support as services evolve.
FAQ
Questions about AWS cloud services? Start here.
What AWS cloud services does QDCD provide?
QDCD can provide AWS consulting, AWS architecture planning, cloud migration planning, EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, CloudFront, Route 53, IAM, VPC planning, monitoring, backups, performance optimization, cost review, documentation and ongoing AWS support.
What is AWS cloud consulting?
AWS cloud consulting helps organizations plan how Amazon Web Services should support applications, websites, databases and business systems. QDCD can review workload requirements, architecture, performance, cost and operational needs before recommending an AWS approach.
How does QDCD monitor AWS environments?
AWS monitoring can include CloudWatch metrics, logs, alerts, health checks and application-level monitoring so performance or availability problems can be identified more quickly.
What is the difference between AWS cloud services and cloud hosting?
AWS cloud services cover a broad set of Amazon Web Services capabilities, including compute, storage, databases, networking, serverless services and monitoring. Cloud hosting focuses more specifically on the infrastructure used to run websites and applications.
How do you know when an AWS environment is overbuilt or too expensive?
Resource utilization, instance sizing, storage growth, network usage, database activity, idle services and billing trends can all show whether an AWS environment is using more infrastructure than the workload requires. QDCD can review those patterns and recommend right-sizing or architecture changes where practical.
What should be reviewed before migrating an application to AWS?
Migration planning should review application dependencies, databases, storage, DNS, networking, authentication, backups, integrations, performance requirements and rollback options. QDCD can use that information to identify migration risks and design a more controlled AWS transition.
