Cloud, network and IT services, and training
CloudForge Global provides cloud, network engineering, help desk, field technician and IT solution services for businesses and individuals. Through CloudForge Academy we also train the next generation of cloud and DevOps engineers.
What we do
Use one service, or combine them. The same engineers plan, build and support the work.
AWS environments that are secure, documented and built so costs stay visible.
Networks that are planned, documented and secured, from the office switch to the cloud.
Responsive first-line support that solves common problems fast and escalates the hard ones with the right details.
On-site technical work done properly, with equipment connected, working and documented before we leave.
Planning and delivering IT projects from first conversation to documented handover.
A six-month program in networking, AWS, DevOps and ML/AI, led by a senior engineer.
How we work
Step 1
We learn what you need, what you already have and what the work has to achieve.
Step 2
A clear scope and approach, agreed with you before any work starts.
Step 3
The work is done and tested against what we agreed.
Step 4
Documentation and a walkthrough, so your team can run it without us.
What you can expect
You know what is included, what is not, and what happens next.
We explain what we found and what we did without jargon.
Diagrams, settings and notes are handed over, so you are never locked in to us.
If a simpler or cheaper option fits, we will say so, even when it means less work for us.
Selected work
Our projects are public, so you can read the code and the incident notes before you hire us.
A file collaboration service on AWS: containers, a managed database and shared storage behind a load balancer, all built with Terraform and a pull-request pipeline. Resilience proven by replacing the running container, with five incidents written up.

View on GitHubA Docker stack taken from a naive image to a hardened four-service setup: rebuilds from 11.8 to 1.8 seconds, security findings from 471 to 45, four documented incidents and a CI pipeline that tests, scans and publishes.
