Service · Cloud Deployment
Cloud deploys, without drama.
Deployment topology, CI/CD, preview environments, and observability — across DigitalOcean, AWS, Cloudflare, and Vercel. Predictable cost, repeatable ship.
Sheet 01 · Overview
Boring deploys. Reliable systems.
Deployment is supposed to be the boring part. We make it boring on purpose — repeatable CI/CD, preview environments for every branch, type-checked builds, and a production cutover that takes minutes, not weeks.
We default to DigitalOcean for cost predictability, but pick the right provider per workload: AWS for managed services, Cloudflare Workers for edge logic, Vercel or Netlify for static and edge-rendered sites.
Every system ships with a documented runbook, a rollback path, and monitoring wired before launch — not after the first incident.

Sheet 03 · Process
How we deploy.
- Phase 01
Topology design
Map application tiers, data stores, queues, edge logic, and DNS. Output: a deployment diagram and a cost estimate.
- Phase 02
Pipeline build
CI/CD configured. Preview environments live. Staging mirrors production. Secrets, env vars, and access controls in place.
- Phase 03
Cutover
DNS plan executed, certificates verified, monitoring active, rollback path rehearsed. Production traffic flipped without downtime.
- Phase 04
Operate
Retained ops: deploy hygiene reviews, cost optimization, incident response, and runbook updates.

Sheet 05 · FAQ
Questions, answered.
Which cloud providers do you deploy to?
DigitalOcean is our default for cost predictability and simplicity. We also ship to AWS, Cloudflare Workers, Vercel, Fly.io, and Render depending on workload, team familiarity, and budget.
Do you manage existing infrastructure or only build new?
Both. Migration to a saner provider, hardening of an existing setup, and greenfield builds are all common engagements.
Will I be locked into a specific provider?
No. We deploy with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Docker, Compose) and avoid provider-specific lock-in unless the customer explicitly chooses managed services.
How do you handle deployment safety?
Preview environments for every branch, type-checked CI builds, staging mirroring production, and rollback paths documented before launch. Database migrations gated behind feature flags.
What about SSL, DNS, and CDN?
All handled in scope. Cloudflare for DNS and CDN by default, Let's Encrypt or Cloudflare-managed TLS, and HTTP cache headers tuned for both edge and browser caches.
