AWS Cloud — Built Right, Managed Smart, Costing Less
Avrix Digital provides AWS consulting, cloud architecture, migration, and managed services for UK businesses. Whether you're moving to AWS for the first time, struggling with a sprawling cloud environment that costs more than it should, or needing expert DevOps and infrastructure support, our AWS-certified consultants design and manage cloud infrastructure that is secure, scalable, and cost-efficient. We work with startups building on AWS from day one, e-commerce businesses migrating their infrastructure to the cloud, SaaS companies looking to optimise their architecture, and established businesses running legacy on-premise systems that need a path to AWS. Every engagement starts with a clear assessment of your current state and a practical, phased roadmap.
The AWS Challenge Most UK Businesses Get Wrong
AWS is extraordinarily powerful — but it's also easy to overspend on, difficult to secure without expertise, and complex to manage at scale without a dedicated team. The most common problems we see when auditing UK business AWS environments are: massively over-provisioned EC2 instances running 24/7 for workloads that only need them 8 hours a day; no tagging strategy meaning costs can't be attributed to projects; S3 buckets with misconfigured permissions exposing data publicly; no automated backup or disaster recovery plan; and no alerting for cost anomalies, meaning surprise bills at month end.
Avrix Digital's AWS Well-Architected Review systematically examines your environment across five pillars: operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and cost optimisation. We produce a prioritised action plan that tackles the highest-impact issues first — typically reducing AWS spend by 30–50% in the first 90 days while simultaneously improving security and reliability. Our managed service clients receive monthly cost reports, proactive monitoring, and a named AWS consultant as their ongoing point of contact.
We start with a scoping call to understand your application, your team's technical capability, and your business requirements. We then design a cloud architecture that fits your needs — not an over-engineered enterprise setup you don't need. For most new AWS deployments, we can have a production-ready environment live within 2–4 weeks.
Almost certainly. Our cost optimisation audit typically identifies savings of 30–50% in existing AWS environments. Common wins include right-sizing EC2 instances, purchasing Reserved Instances or Savings Plans for predictable workloads, implementing S3 lifecycle policies, and eliminating zombie resources that are running but no longer needed. The audit costs from £499 and typically saves multiples of that in the first month alone.
Yes. Our AWS Managed Services retainer (from £799/month) includes 24/7 monitoring and alerting, monthly cost optimisation reviews, security patch management, backup verification, incident response, and a named AWS consultant as your dedicated point of contact. We act as your external cloud team.
Yes. We plan and execute lift-and-shift migrations from on-premise infrastructure to AWS, as well as more complex re-platforming projects where we modernise applications to use cloud-native services. Every migration is planned with a tested rollback option and executed in phases to minimise business risk.
Our consultants have deep expertise in EC2, RDS, S3, Lambda, CloudFront, ECS, EKS, Route 53, IAM, CloudWatch, and Terraform for infrastructure as code. We also work extensively with AWS cost management tools including Cost Explorer, Budgets, and Savings Plans. For DevOps, we implement CI/CD pipelines using CodePipeline, GitHub Actions, and Jenkins.
