Let's talk

Cloud and infrastructure

The infrastructure your applications sit on.

Move legacy workloads to AWS with a cutover plan, tested recovery, and visibility into the running environment.

Discuss your infrastructure
The problem

The system works. Moving it is the scary part.

Plenty of businesses run on infrastructure nobody wants to touch. It works, the person who built it left, and every change feels like a risk.

We migrate and modernise that kind of environment without taking the business down to do it.

Capabilities

What we handle

AWS architecture

Environments designed for what you actually run, not a reference diagram.

Cloud migration

Moving legacy workloads with a rollback plan at every step.

Deployment automation

Ship changes without a person following a checklist.

Monitoring and alerting

Know something broke before a customer tells you.

Backup and recovery

Tested restores, not just backups that appear to run.

Linux and hosting

The unglamorous server work that keeps everything up.

A migration without an outage
Legacy environment Works, undocumented, nobody wants to touch it
Migration and automation Staged cutover, rollback at every step Stork builds
AWS, monitored Deployments automated, alerts before customers notice

Every step is reversible. That is the whole point of doing it this way.

What we work with

  • AWS
  • EC2
  • RDS
  • S3
  • Load balancers
  • Auto scaling
  • Route 53
  • Linux
  • Docker
  • ECS
How it works

How a migration usually goes

  1. Inventory the environmentIdentify applications, dependencies, access, traffic, and recovery requirements before planning changes.
  2. Plan the moveDefine the target environment, migration order, maintenance windows, and conditions for rolling back.
  3. Build and rehearsePrepare the infrastructure and deployment automation, then test workloads and restore backups in the new environment.
  4. Cut over in stagesMove traffic in agreed stages and check application health and data consistency at each step.
  5. Operate and reviewSet up monitoring, document recovery procedures, and review capacity and running costs as usage changes.
Proof

Where we have done this

The competitive intelligence platform uses AWS and Amazon SES to support scheduled collection and email ingestion for a continuously updated research application.

Competitive intelligence, watched continuously

A platform that watches a drug market around the clock, classifies everything new as it lands, and keeps a dated picture of every competitor and asset.
