Cloud-Native Architecture

Cloud-native platforms for reduced complexity and increased scalability

Modular cloud architectures based on microservices, containers, and event-driven systems. Platform Engineering and Site Reliability Engineering ensure system availability and efficiency.

The Challenge

Transitioning to the cloud without clear architecture and automation leads to cost explosion, security risks, and unstable operating environments. Without structured domain boundaries and standardized platforms, heterogeneous structures emerge that are difficult to maintain.

Typical Use Cases

  • Cloud migration of existing applications and legacy systems.
  • Building internal developer platforms for multiple teams.
  • Scaling of microservice landscapes and multi-region operations.
  • Preparation for continuous deployment and automated security checks.

Our Contribution

Cloud-Native Target Architectures

  • Modularization of systems by domain to enable independent teams and scalable microservices.
  • Design of event-based architectures (Event-Driven Architecture) for decoupling and increased responsiveness.
  • Containerization and use of standardized runtime environments (e.g., Kubernetes) for portability and consistency.
  • Integration of open-source components from the cloud-native ecosystem (CNCF) to ensure flexibility and interoperability.

Platform Engineering and Reliability

  • Building internal developer platforms that offer self-service for infrastructure and deployment.
  • Automated provisioning of infrastructure and application components (Infrastructure as Code, GitOps).
  • Integration of observability and monitoring stacks for complete transparency over applications and infrastructure.
  • Application of SRE principles (error budgets, automation of recovery processes) to ensure stability and reliability.

Our Approach

1

Architecture definition: Analysis of current state, derivation of domain boundaries, and definition of target architecture.

2

Infrastructure automation: Introduction of Infrastructure as Code and self-service concepts for developers.

3

Platform setup: Implementation of platform services (CI/CD, observability, secrets management) based on standardized tools.

4

Monitoring and SRE: Establishment of metrics, alerting, logging, and SRE processes for continuous availability.

5

Operational stabilization: Transition to regular operation, team training, and ongoing optimization.

We combine architecture consulting, engineering, and operational support to create a robust, future-proof platform.

Responsibility

We take responsibility for cloud architecture design, platform setup, and implementation of automation and observability solutions. The client side is responsible for domain applications and feature prioritization.

Delivered Outcomes

Scalable, modular cloud architectures based on microservices and events.

A consistent, automated developer platform that enables fast, secure deployments.

Reduced downtime and higher system stability through SRE methods.

Lower operating costs and better resource utilization through automation and standardized processes.
