Cloud Services
Cloud infrastructure scales depending on the demands of your business, so it’s a great option if you have fluctuating workloads. You can add or take away resources based on your needs. As you grow, your system grows with you.

Cloud Optimization and cloud migration
Optimize costs and reliability when Caktus architects optimize cloud solutions for applications running on AWS, Microsoft Azure, Digital Ocean, or Google Cloud. We also perform migrations of live production applications to one or more public clouds, between hosting providers, or cloud platforms. Application maintenance and scalability are simplified down the road when you use managed services, like Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL.
