// NETWORKING / CLOUD NETWORKING
Your clients are in the cloud. The network isn't designed for it.
VPCs spun up without a transit strategy, circuits sized wrong or never ordered, on-premises firewall rules copy-pasted into a topology they don't fit. We architect the connectivity layer across AWS, Azure and GCP so workloads actually perform, under your brand.
Start a cloud networking conversationYour clients migrated to the cloud. Nobody designed the network.
Cloud migrations routinely underestimate the network. VPCs get spun up with no transit strategy. ExpressRoute and Direct Connect circuits are sized wrong or never provisioned. Security groups and firewall rules are copy-pasted from on-premises schemas that do not map to cloud topology. Most organisations run hybrid, so the design has to account for on-premises connectivity, not just intra-cloud traffic. Every migration exposes the same architecture problem: Transit Gateway and Virtual WAN decisions that are expensive to undo, dedicated circuits with multi-week lead times that block go-live, and cloud firewall models that behave nothing like the on-premises NGFW rules they replaced. That is the layer we design.
What we deliver.
AWS Transit Architecture
AWS Transit Gateway and Cloud WAN for hub-and-spoke VPC connectivity across 30+ regions, replacing 200+ point-to-point peerings with one centralised hub that actually scales as the estate grows.
Azure Virtual WAN
Virtual WAN hubs at 50 Gbps with full-mesh inter-hub connectivity and native SD-WAN CPE integration. Equal depth on Azure and AWS, so a hybrid estate is designed as one system rather than two half-built ones.
GCP Network Connectivity Center
Cross-cloud routing through GCP Network Connectivity Center plus Cloud Load Balancing, so a three-cloud client gets a coherent transit design instead of three disconnected islands.
Dedicated Circuits, Planned Early
ExpressRoute and Direct Connect designed, provisioned and integrated as part of the architecture. These circuits carry 8 to 12 week lead times, so they belong in the design phase, not as a surprise that blocks the go-live date.
Private Endpoints
Azure Private Link and Private Endpoints for every PaaS service, plus AWS PrivateLink for cross-account access, keeping production data off the public internet for financial, healthcare and public sector workloads.
Cloud-Native Firewall Policy
Azure Firewall and NSG design, AWS Gateway Load Balancer for inline appliances, and Route Server integration. Cloud firewall models differ from on-premises NGFW rules, so the policy is built for cloud topology, not copy-pasted from the data centre.

How the options compare.
What your client gets from hyperscaler professional services, a cloud-native MSP, or our team under your brand.
Cloud networking, answered straight.
01 Our client is AWS-only. Do they still need multi-cloud networking?
Clients are rarely single-cloud by the time you engage on networking. Most mid-market enterprises already run Entra ID alongside AWS workloads, which means Azure VPN or ExpressRoute is already in play. Tri-cloud capability means you handle the real environment, not the idealized single-cloud diagram.
02 How long does ExpressRoute or Direct Connect provisioning take?
Dedicated circuit provisioning typically runs 8 to 12 weeks from order to activation. It is the single most common timeline surprise in cloud migration. We put circuit provisioning into the design phase, so it runs in parallel instead of blocking go-live by two months at the end.
03 Can the cloud providers' professional services handle this?
AWS ProServe, Microsoft FastTrack and Google PSO exist, but they are expensive, often backlogged six to eight weeks, and not available for delivery under your brand. Their incentive is to sell more cloud. Their engagements also tend to end at design. We design, deploy and document the architecture for the workload.
04 What is the difference between Transit Gateway and Virtual WAN?
AWS Transit Gateway is the AWS-native hub-and-spoke service connecting VPCs, VPNs and Direct Connect gateways. Azure Virtual WAN is the equivalent, with 50 Gbps hub throughput and native SD-WAN CPE integration. Both replace manual point-to-point peering. We design and deploy both, and can bridge them for clients running across AWS and Azure.
05 How do you handle cloud network security for regulated industries?
Private Endpoints for all PaaS services to remove public internet data paths, NSG deny-by-default posture, Azure Firewall or GWLB-attached inline firewalls, and documented policy. For PCI DSS scope, NIS2 segmentation and DORA ICT risk management, the architecture documentation is part of the deliverable, not extra work later.
06 Can you integrate with our client's existing SD-WAN?
Yes. Our SD-WAN practice (Cisco Viptela, Meraki MX, Aruba EdgeConnect) integrates directly with Azure Virtual WAN, which natively supports 20+ SD-WAN CPE vendors. A cloud networking engagement extends into SD-WAN, or the reverse; they are the same architecture seen from two entry points.
Tell us what your clients need.
A tri-cloud migration. A 200-site SD-WAN rollout. A security architecture before NIS2 hits. An AI system your client is asking about next quarter. We scope it, staff it, and deliver it under your brand. One conversation tells us if we are the right team.
