The Problem
No company context
AI tools write code without knowing your codebase, your specs, your stored procedures, your standards. Generic in, generic out.
Zero audit trail
Nobody knows what changed, by whom, against which spec, at what cost. When something breaks, the log is empty.
Knowledge stays siloed
The senior engineer's head is still the source of truth. The pipeline learns nothing. That person leaves, the knowledge walks out.
Pilot never becomes default
The shiny demo works. Then adoption stalls. The new way of working never replaces the old one.
Why AIDLC?
Faster delivery
Tens of dollars per feature, hours of elapsed time. Not weeks.
Built-in compliance
Every action audited. Every dollar attributed to an issue.
Institutional memory
The pipeline learns. The org's knowledge stops walking out the door.
Faster onboarding
New engineers ramp on a pipeline that already knows the codebase.
A pipeline that improves
Each cycle's retro feeds the next cycle's configuration.
Humans stay in control
Agents propose. Humans approve. Every merge is gated.

Migration & Modernization
Built for the cloud-native era
We don't just move your workloads, we transform them. Containers, microservices, managed services, and full observability from day one.
VMs → Containers Microservices Database modernization AWS Landing Zone OpenTelemetry AWS MAP
Modernization-first, not lift & shift
Every migration engagement is an opportunity to eliminate technical debt, unlock developer velocity, and build for scale. Click any pillar to explore.
VM → Container replatforming
Move off bare VMs onto EKS with proper orchestration, autoscaling, and workload isolation.
App modernization
.NET & Java apps restructured into distributed microservices not just updated versions.
Data & database modernization
Schema redesign, managed engines, and data model transformation via AWS MAP.
Managed messaging & events
Message queues migrated to Amazon SQS, SNS, EventBridge, and MSK.
Observability & OTel
Full OpenTelemetry instrumentation traces, metrics, logs wired to AWS-native tooling.
Enterprise landing zones
Multi-account AWS structure, security baselines, and compliance guardrails at scale.
AWS MAP-aligned delivery phases
Our engagement follows AWS Migration Acceleration Program phases, extended with modernization sprints.

- Performance tuning
- SLO/SLA wiring
- FinOps dashboards
OpenTelemetry:
Baked in, not bolted on
Auto-instrumentation of .NET and Java services → ADOT collector sidecars on EKS → AWS X-Ray for distributed tracing → CloudWatch for metrics and logs → custom dashboards and SLO alerting. All traces, metrics, and logs flow through a single OTel pipeline, swap backends without re-instrumenting.
VM → Container replatforming
Move off bare VMs onto EKS with proper orchestration, autoscaling, and workload isolation.
Custom metrics
Business and technical KPIs exported via OTel metrics SDK to CloudWatch and Managed Prometheus.
Structured logging
JSON-structured logs with trace correlation IDs, shipped to CloudWatch Logs Insights.
SLO alerting
Composite alarms and SLO burn-rate alerts wired from day one not as an afterthought.

FAQ
What's the core offering?
AWS migration and modernization, not lift-and-shift, but containers, microservices, managed databases, and full observability from day one.
What's their delivery process?
Four AWS MAP-aligned phases: Assess (discovery, TCO, dependency mapping), Mobilize (landing zone, CI/CD, OTel baseline), Migrate & modernize (containerization, microservices, DB/messaging migration), Optimize (cost, performance, SLOs, FinOps).
How is observability handled?
OpenTelemetry baked in from day one. Auto-instrumentation flows into ADOT collectors on EKS, then X-Ray tracing, then CloudWatch metrics and logs, then custom dashboards and SLO alerting.
What changes architecturally?
VMs become EKS containers, self-managed DBs become Aurora/RDS, RabbitMQ/ActiveMQ becomes SQS/MSK/EventBridge, a single AWS account becomes Control Tower multi-account, and manual deploys become GitOps (ArgoCD/CodePipeline).
What governance is included?
Control Tower landing zone, Security Hub/GuardDuty/Config baselines, IAM Identity Center, hub-spoke VPC networking, FinOps cost governance, and compliance-as-code.
What results do clients get?
60-80% cost reduction, 10x faster deployments, 99.9%+ availability, and under 5 minute MTTR.
