Application modernisation services for cloud-native systems
Modernisation
Put cloud at the centre of continuous innovation.
How we help
Modern platforms, built to scale and adapt
Cloud modernisation isn’t just about technology upgrades, it’s about enabling your business to move faster, scale smarter, and run more efficiently.
We help you refactor, replatform and re-architect systems for performance, flexibility, and cost optimisation. Whether you’re evolving legacy platforms or embracing cloud-native architectures, we build for long-term agility and resilience.
Why it works
Ongoing modernisation brings business value
Refactor to cloud-native
Unlock the full value of the cloud with architectures designed for scale, speed and stability. Cloud-native refactoring improves performance, agility and cost efficiency – all while strengthening your security posture and enabling seamless growth.
Containerise for control
Run faster, scale smarter and recover quicker. Deliver consistent environments, streamline management, and accelerate development through strategic containerisation that give your team the tools to move forward with confidence.
Automate testing
Accelerate delivery without compromising quality. Automated testing enables faster, more reliable release cycles, with real-time insights and tighter CI/CD integration that drives better user experiences and system reliance.
Leverage open-source technologies
Stay flexible and future-ready with open, community-driven tools. Open-source solutions reduce licensing costs, speed up innovations and support safe experimentation – all while maintaining transparency, compliance and interoperability.
Benefits
The long-term value of cloud modernisation

Business agility
Enable faster deployments, smoother iterations, and real-time scaling aligned to business priorities.
Cost efficiency
Reduce overhead with lightweight architectures and optimised infrastructure usage.
Strategic advantage
Accelerate innovation cycles and stay competitive with platforms designed for what’s next.
Our Approach
Modernisation built on proven tools and practices
Refactor and re-architect
Modernise applications to be faster, leaner and easier to evolve. Refactoring, re-architecting and decomposing monoliths into modular, cloud-ready components improves performance, reduces technical debt and creates space for future innovation.
Containerisation and platform enablement
Improve portability, resilience and deployment velocity by moving to container-based platforms. Whether using Kubernetes or managed container services, modernisation helps teams scale more predictably and deliver updates with less friction.
Automation and CI/CD modernisation
Replace slow, manual processes with automated build, test and release pipelines. Streamlined CI/CD enables more frequent, reliable deployments, reduces delivery risk and strengthens system stability.
Cost and performance optimisation
Identify inefficiencies, rationalise infrastructure and right-size workloads to run more efficiently. Modernisation improves speed and stability while reducing unnecessary spend through smarter architectures and resource usage.
Data and integration modernisation
Evolve data stores, modernise integration layers and improve interoperability across systems. From managed data services to event-driven design, this level of modernisation enables better insights, richer experiences and AI-readiness.
Security hardening and compliance alignment
Strengthen the security posture of legacy platforms with updated controls, improved governance and automated policy enforcement. Modernisation reduces risk and ensures compliance without slowing down delivery.
Application platforms
Shift to modern runtimes, container platforms, serverless architectures and managed application services designed for performance, reliability and flexibility.
Integration architecture
Move from brittle, point-to-point communication to scalable APIs, event-driven patterns and secure hybrid connectivity that simplify change and reduce downtime.
Data modernisation
Adopt cloud-ready databases, managed data platforms and modern storage patterns that improve performance, support analytics and enable AI workloads.
DevOps and automation
Use automated pipelines, infrastructure-as-code and environment orchestration to improve speed, consistency and release quality across teams.
Observability and insights
Introduce modern logging, metrics, tracing and intelligent alerting to detect issues early, optimise performance and maintain reliable user experiences.
Security and governance
Embed continuous security controls, identity modernisation and compliance frameworks that protect systems as they evolve.
Performance and resilience engineering
Adopt caching, autoscaling, load balancing, chaos testing and fault-tolerant design principles to improve uptime, reduce latency and strengthen recovery.
