Azure architecture that does not surprise you

Cloud infrastructure designed for the bill at the end of the month as much as the uptime — with pipelines your team can actually operate.

Azure services

Architecture & Review

Well-Architected reviews covering reliability, security, cost and operational readiness — with a prioritised remediation list.

Cloud Migration

On-premise to Azure, phased so the business keeps running. Lift-and-shift first where it makes sense, re-platform where it pays.

Serverless & Containers

Azure Functions, App Service, Container Apps and AKS — matched to your traffic profile rather than to fashion.

CI/CD Pipelines

Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions with environment promotion, approvals, automated tests and safe rollback.

Infrastructure as Code

Bicep or Terraform so environments are reproducible and drift stops being a mystery.

Cost Optimisation

Right-sizing, reserved capacity, autoscale rules and tagging discipline — typically the fastest measurable win.

Built for the team who runs it

A cloud architecture is only as good as the team’s ability to operate it at 3am. We favour designs your engineers can reason about: clear service boundaries, sensible defaults, alerts that mean something and runbooks written in plain language.

Every Cogicode Azure engagement ends with handover documentation and a walkthrough with your team. You should not need us to keep the lights on, and we do not build dependencies that force you to.

Where cost is the driver, we start with an audit. Idle capacity, oversized tiers and forgotten resources routinely account for a meaningful share of a monthly Azure bill, and that is usually the first thing worth fixing.

Frequently asked questions

Does Cogicode Technologies work with AWS as well as Azure?

Yes. Azure is our deepest specialisation because of the .NET focus, but our engineers also work with AWS across EC2, ECS, Lambda, RDS and S3.

Can you reduce our Azure bill?

Usually. We begin with a cost audit covering right-sizing, reserved instances, autoscale configuration and orphaned resources, then present the savings alongside any reliability trade-offs so you can decide what to act on.

Do you offer ongoing cloud support?

Yes. Some clients engage us for a fixed architecture project and take it in-house afterwards; others keep a part-time DevOps engineer on a monthly basis. Both are supported.

How long does an Azure migration take?

It depends on the estate. A single application typically moves in two to six weeks; a multi-application environment with databases and integrations usually runs three to six months in phases, with each phase shipped independently.
