Eight Mile · Infrastructure · London
Cloud and infrastructure engineering in London.
AWS, GCP and Azure platforms, delivery pipelines, Terraform, containers and the databases under them — designed, built and run from London by AWS Professional certified engineers. We run what we build: monitoring, backups and the midnight page are part of the job.
Scope
The platform under the product.
Four things every business system needs and few have written down. We describe all of them in code, so the setup is reviewable, reproducible and yours.
Cloud platforms
Accounts, networks, identity and cost on AWS, GCP and Azure — landing zones for a new estate, or order brought to one that grew by clicking. UK and EU regions by default.
Terraform and pipelines
Every server, VLAN, firewall rule and DNS record in HCL, planned and applied through a pipeline. Where a provider does not exist for the platform you are on, we have written them.
Containers and hosting
Docker Swarm and Kubernetes where they earn their keep, plain hosts where they do not, and the ingress, certificates and secrets handling around them. Nothing published that should not be.
Databases and continuity
Highly available PostgreSQL with automatic failover behind one stable address, backups that are restored on a schedule to prove they work, and a written recovery plan for the day it matters.

Tell us what is running, and what worries you about it.
A cloud account, a server under a desk, a database that has never failed over: describe it in a few sentences and you will get a straight answer about what it would take to make it defensible.
