Infrastructure,
built from zero.
Zero Based is a cloud engineering and DevOps consultancy. We design, build, secure, and operate modern cloud infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes - so your team ships faster with confidence.
The stack we build and run on
Four things we do, properly.
Deep engagements where we own the outcome, not just the ticket - as an embedded engineer, a technical lead, or a trusted advisor.
Cloud Platform Engineering
Production-ready platforms on AWS and Azure: architecture, networking, IAM, and Kubernetes done properly. From greenfield builds to complex migrations, we design systems your team can operate with confidence.
DevOps & Automation
CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code, and observability that turn deployments into a non-event. Everything as code, every environment identical - automation over manual processes, always.
Security & Identity
IAM done properly, secrets management, vulnerability management, and single sign-on with Auth0, Entra ID, OIDC and SAML. Cloud security best practice without the theatre.
AI Infrastructure
Hosting AI workloads in your own cloud: GPU infrastructure, inference endpoints, and the networking, security, and cost controls around them. The same rigour we bring to any platform, applied to fast-moving AI.
The rest of what we take on.
Cloud migrations
Lift-and-shift or a full re-platform - moved to AWS or Azure with minimal downtime and no surprises on the bill.
Cost optimisation
Right-size and cut cloud spend without cutting reliability.
Networking & connectivity
VPCs, VPNs, DNS, load balancing, and hybrid links.
Databases & caching
PostgreSQL, Redis, and tuning that holds up under load.
Observability & logging
Metrics, logs, and traces - see problems before customers do.
Software development
Full-stack product engineering when you need it - we build and run our own SaaS.
From zero to production.
Pragmatic, not theoretical - automation over manual processes, code over click-ops, and simple over clever.
Baseline
We map where you are: infrastructure, code, pipelines, and cost. Then we agree the target.
Design
Architecture and automation designed for your scale, budget, and team - not ours.
Build
We implement in small increments, in the open, with everything captured as code.
Handover
You get reproducible infrastructure, real documentation, and the knowledge to run it.
What good looks like.
We run our own SaaS products, so we build client platforms the way we build ours - secure, maintainable, and cheap to run.
Let's start at zero.
