Secure cloud · Integration · DevOps · AI
Cloudware is a Canadian consultancy of senior, hands-on architects. We help enterprises modernize on AWS, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Microsoft Azure, securely connect their systems through governed APIs, automate delivery with a full audit trail, and put AI agents to work on real enterprise data, with monitoring and transparency built in.
What we do
Five practices, one team. We design it, build it with you, and make sure it keeps paying off.
Connect LLMs and agents to your enterprise data and systems — securely, through the APIs you already govern.
Learn morePick the right platform, build a secure landing zone that lasts, migrate in waves and keep the bill under control.
Learn moreSecure, API-led integration that lets the business change faster than its legacy systems do.
Learn moreInfrastructure as code, secure CI/CD and observability that turn releases into a non-event.
Learn moreIndependent, senior architecture judgement when the decision is expensive to get wrong.

Built right, from the first design
Every architecture we design and every platform we build is reviewed against the same six qualities. You see the results in plain reports and dashboards, not just in our word.
Least-privilege identity, encryption, secrets management and network segmentation built into landing zones, gateways and pipelines.
Every change goes through version control and an approved pipeline, every decision is written down, and you get clear reporting on what changed, who approved it and why.
Logs, metrics, traces and alerts from day one, in one view across clouds, APIs and automation, so issues are found before users find them.
Resilient architecture, tested backup and recovery, and automated rollback, so failures are contained and recovery is routine.
Right-sized resources that scale with demand, and operations automated so teams spend time on change, not toil.
Tagging, budgets and monthly cost reviews keep spend visible and tied to value, and using only what you need lowers your footprint too.
Enterprise experience
Our architects have spent decades delivering for major Canadian financial institutions, national telecom carriers, utilities and public-sector organizations. We know how large enterprises really work: the governance, the legacy, the security reviews and the politics, and how to get change through them.
Major Canadian banks, insurers and payment providers: regulated, risk-averse, running core systems that cannot go down.
National carriers with high-volume integration, real-time customer channels and constant product launches.
Utilities modernizing operational and smart-metering systems under strict security and audit requirements.
Public-sector organizations driving cloud adoption, automation and AI under strict security and policy requirements.
Legacy systems that cannot keep pace
Wrap them in governed APIs first, then retire them on a plan instead of a big-bang rewrite.
Cloud bills that grow faster than value
Right-size, automate and measure monthly: the savings stay because they are built into the platform.
Security and audit slowing every change
Bake controls into landing zones, pipelines and API gateways so compliance becomes the default path.
AI pilots that never reach production
Give models governed access to enterprise data through the integration layer you already trust.
Releases that need a war room
Infrastructure as code, CI/CD and observability turn deployments into routine, repeatable events.
Too many vendors, no single design
Independent architecture that puts AWS, OCI, Azure and SaaS in their right place and documents why.

How we work
Small senior teams, no hand-offs to juniors. The architect who designs your solution is the one who helps build it.
01Assess
Understand the business goal, the current estate, its security and compliance posture, and the constraints that are real versus inherited.
02Design
Choose the target architecture, review it for security, reliability, performance and cost, and write down the key design decisions and why.
03Deliver
Build it hands-on with your team: infrastructure as code, secure pipelines, APIs and automation, with monitoring and audit logging from day one.
04Optimize
Measure security, cost, reliability and speed, report transparently, feed results back and hand over a team that can run it.
