We build cloud that works.
We help small and medium businesses run better in the cloud.
Whether you're migrating to the cloud for the first time, trying to cut AWS costs, or harden a production environment — we bring enterprise experience to your budget and timeline.
What We Do
End-to-End Cloud Services
From initial architecture to ongoing operations, we handle every layer of your cloud infrastructure.
Cloud Architecture
We design secure, multi-AZ AWS environments built to scale — VPCs, load balancing, and auto-scaling done right from day one.
Cloud Migration
We move your workloads to AWS with minimal downtime — assessment, migration, and a clean landing zone underneath.
Cloud Engineering
We automate your infrastructure with Terraform or CloudFormation & CI/CD so changes are repeatable, version-controlled, and fast.
Security & Compliance
We harden your AWS account against breaches and audit findings — IAM, encryption, GuardDuty, and compliance-ready configs.
Cost Optimization
We audit your AWS bill and cut the waste — right-sizing, Savings Plans, and guardrails so you only pay for what you use.
Well-Architected Reviews
We review your workloads against the AWS Well-Architected Framework and hand you a prioritized, actionable fix-it plan.

We keep your cloud healthy — monitoring, patching, backups, and monthly reviews so nothing slips.

Best for a specific goal
Monthly Retainer
Ongoing architecture, monitoring, and cost optimization for a predictable monthly fee — a steady hand on your cloud once you are live.
Best for ongoing support
One-Off Audit
A focused cost or Well-Architected review with a prioritized, actionable plan. A low-commitment way to get expert eyes on your setup.
Best for a second opinion
FAQ
Questions, answered
The things most people ask before reaching out.
It depends on the work. Most engagements are fixed-scope — you know the price before we start — or a predictable monthly retainer for ongoing support. One-off audits are a flat fee. No hourly surprises: we agree on scope and cost up front.
A focused audit takes a few days. A migration or landing-zone build is usually a few weeks. Retainers are ongoing and month-to-month. We give you a realistic timeline before you commit to anything.
Fair question. MakFam is new, but the experience is not: years of hands-on AWS work deploying enterprise-scale systems, backed by an AWS Solutions Architect – Professional certification you can verify. We document everything and transfer knowledge, so you are never locked in.
Yes — we work alongside your team, not around them. We explain what we are doing in plain English, document it, and train your people so they can own the infrastructure after we are gone.
We work remotely and support any AWS region. Wherever your workloads run, we can architect, migrate, secure, and manage them.
