Design, development, and automation of modern cloud platforms

Cloud engineering at PROTOS means that we don't just build infrastructure—we create platforms that are automated, scalable, and operable. From architecture and infrastructure as code to container orchestration and CI/CD.

Whether it's a greenfield project or the modernization of existing environments with AI tools, we implement your cloud projects with technical excellence and proven patterns.

When does cloud engineering make sense?

Building cloud platforms

New cloud environments are to be designed, provisioned, and made operational.

Modernizing workloads

Existing applications should be containerized or migrated to cloud-native architectures.

Introducing automation

Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD pipelines, and GitOps are to be established or optimized.

Scalability in demand

Systems must scale elastically and remain stable under load.

Optimizing the existing environment

An existing cloud infrastructure needs to be modernized, consolidated, or made more efficient.

Handover to IT operations

Engineering results must be seamlessly transferred into productive operation.

What we deliver in engineering

Our engineering services cover the entire lifecycle of modern cloud platforms.

Cloud Platform Design

Architecture and design of landing zones, account structures, and network topologies

Infrastructure as Code

Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation – reproducible, versioned infrastructure

Containers and Kubernetes

Containerization, EKS/AKS/GKE clusters, Helm charts, and service meshes

CI/CD and GitOps

Build pipelines, deployment automation, and GitOps workflows

Application Modernization

Migration from monoliths to microservices, serverless, and event-driven architectures

Observability and Monitoring

Logging, tracing, metrics—complete transparency across your platform

For us, cloud engineering means seamlessly transforming architectures into robust systems through the direct interplay of consulting and engineering. We develop and operate cloud solutions with end-to-end responsibility for organizations whose business-critical IT is subject to high demands for security, regulation, and reliability.
