Architecture, implementation, and cloud expertise that gets used.

CloudTwyst Services provides the advisory, architecture, and operational support that helps clients adopt modern platforms and software with confidence — without hyperscaler co-sell agreements shaping the advice.

Service 01 · Core Capability
Cloud Strategy & Architecture
Cloud architecture that survives contact with the org chart.

Most cloud estates were not designed — they accumulated. Accounts opened for a project, landing zones that diverged, and ownership that nobody wrote down until an audit asked. The architecture that results is one no individual chose.

We design the target state and the operating model around it: who owns what, which decisions are centralised, and what the platform team is actually accountable for. We hold no hyperscaler co-sell agreements, so the recommendation is shaped by your constraints rather than a partner tier we are trying to maintain.

EU-based · Senior delivery · Fixed-scope · Typical engagement 8–14 weeks
What we deliver
Multi-cloud strategy and landing zone design
Reference architectures for regulated workloads
Target operating model design — teams, ownership, and decision rights
Platform roadmap sequenced against delivery capacity
Vendor selection without hyperscaler bias
Who this is for
Organisations in regulated sectors standing up a new cloud platform, or correcting one that grew without a target architecture.

Service 02 · Core Capability
Sovereign AI Mesh
Full AI capability. Zero data exposure. Entirely under your control.

Every time your organisation sends proprietary data to a third-party public LLM API, you're making a compliance decision most legal teams haven't fully assessed. We design and deploy self-hosted, private AI infrastructure — local LLMs on your own compute, your data remaining entirely within your legal boundary.

Your legal team doesn't have to compromise. Your AI capability doesn't have to either.

⚡ Operational in 4–8 weeks
What we deliver
Data flow audit — mapping what data currently leaves your environment
Model selection: open-weight LLMs (Llama, Mistral, Gemma) calibrated to your use cases
Private infrastructure design: GPU compute, inference optimisation, vector database
Integration layer connecting private AI to internal systems and user interfaces
Governance framework: model versioning, output audit trails, responsible AI documentation
100%
data within legal boundary
4–8wk
scoping to live
Who this is for
Legal, financial services, healthcare, government, and any organisation handling regulated data that still needs to move fast on AI.

Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration
The quantum threat is not coming. For your data, it's already here.

"Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" describes an active, documented threat: adversaries collect encrypted data today to decrypt it when quantum computing matures. NIST finalised its first PQC standards in 2024. The organisations moving now will complete migration before regulatory mandates create an emergency.

✓ NIST PQC standards finalised August 2024
What we deliver
Full cryptographic estate audit — data at rest, in transit, and key management
Risk prioritisation: which assets face the highest harvest-now exposure
Migration to NIST PQC standards: CRYSTALS-Kyber, CRYSTALS-Dilithium, FALCON, SPHINCS+
Implementation with parallel-run validation before legacy layer decommission
Audit-ready compliance documentation for regulatory reporting

4–6mo

Who this is for
Financial services, healthcare, legal, defence supply chain, and government-adjacent organisations with long-lived, sensitive data.
Service 04 · Core Capability
Intelligent Workload Repatriation
Stop paying public cloud prices for workloads that don't need them.

For predictable, high-compute workloads — AI training, batch processing, large-scale analytics — sovereign bare-metal and private cloud environments frequently deliver equivalent performance at 40–60% lower cost. This is not about leaving the cloud. It's about using it selectively, where it genuinely wins.

We have no co-sell agreement that would bias this analysis. Our recommendation is shaped entirely by the economics of your workload.

↓ 47% average infrastructure cost reduction
What we deliver
Full estate analysis — workload classification by cost-sensitivity and compute predictability
3-year total cost of ownership modelling: public cloud vs. private vs. sovereign bare-metal
Target architecture design for repatriated workloads
Migration roadmap with risk sequencing and rollback planning
Implementation support and hyperscaler cost renegotiation
40–60%
per-workload cost reduction
8–12wk
first workload migration
Who this is for
Organisations running AI training, batch analytics, or any workload with predictable, sustained compute demand on AWS, Azure, or GCP.
Service 05 · Core Capability
Dynamic Carbon Grid Shifting
Move your compute to where the grid is cleanest. Automatically.

The carbon intensity of electricity varies dramatically by geography and hour. We architect orchestration systems that route non-time-sensitive compute to the lowest-carbon infrastructure in real time — without manual intervention, with full reporting output for CSRD, GHG Protocol, and board-level ESG disclosure.

This is not carbon offsetting. It is actual emissions reduction, at the infrastructure layer, with measurable and auditable results.

↓ 30–45% compute carbon reduction
What we deliver
Carbon baseline assessment across your full cloud estate
Workload classification — identifying latency-tolerant jobs eligible for shifting
Orchestration architecture connected to real-time grid carbon intensity data
Integration: Electricity Maps, WattTime, and equivalents
Reporting dashboard — CSRD and GHG Protocol aligned
41%
avg compute carbon reduction
7%
secondary cost saving
Who this is for
Organisations with net-zero commitments or CSRD obligations that need to move beyond offsets to measurable infrastructure-level action.
Service 06 · Automation & Platform Engineering
Automation & Platform Engineering
Modern platform delivery — from CI/CD pipelines to full infrastructure automation.

We design and build the automation layer that makes modern cloud delivery reliable, repeatable, and auditable. Infrastructure as code, GitOps pipelines, developer platforms, and operational runbooks — designed for the team that has to run it, not just the team that built it.

What we deliver
Infrastructure as code design and implementation (Terraform, Bicep, Pulumi)
CI/CD pipeline design and GitOps workflow implementation
Internal developer platform (IDP) design and toolchain integration
Operational runbooks and automation playbooks
Observability, alerting, and incident response framework
Who this is for
Engineering organisations that need to reduce manual deployment effort, accelerate delivery, and improve operational reliability.
Service 07 · Core Capability
Security Services
Cloud security architecture, compliance alignment, and threat modelling.

Cloud security architecture, risk-based posture remediation, and security-operations design — built so the secure configuration is the default and the evidence is automatic, rather than reconstructed before each audit.

Where CloudTwyst Security Assess tells you which controls are failing, this is the engagement that redesigns them.

Fixed-scope · Typical engagement 8–14 weeks
What we deliver
Cloud security architecture — identity, network, and data controls as estate-wide defaults
Risk-based posture remediation triaged by real exploitability and impact
NIS2, DORA, and ISO 27001 control alignment
SecOps design — detection, response runbooks, and automated evidence collection
