Cloud & backend development
Cloud and backend development
Robust server-side solutions, APIs, databases and scalable cloud infrastructure to power your applications. When traffic grows, the system grows with you, and deployments stay predictable.

01What we build
- 01
API development
Secure, documented REST and GraphQL APIs for web apps, mobile apps and partners.
- 02
Database design
Data models that stay fast and consistent as your data grows.
- 03
Microservices & serverless
Splitting systems into manageable services or serverless functions when it pays off.
- 04
DevOps & CI/CD
Automated testing, builds and deployments, with preview environments for every change.
- 05
Monitoring & security
Logging, alerting, backups and security hardening so problems are caught early.
02Cloud that fits
We work with AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Vercel and European hosting providers, and choose based on your requirements for cost, performance and data location. Infrastructure is defined as code, so environments are reproducible.
03What you get
Architecture overview
A documented design of services, data flows and hosting choices, written for your team as well as ours.
Documented APIs
REST or GraphQL endpoints with an OpenAPI or schema description, authentication and versioning.
Database schema and migrations
A data model with versioned migrations, indexes and backups configured from the start.
CI/CD pipeline
Automated tests, builds and deployments, with a preview environment for every change.
Infrastructure as code
Environments defined in code, so staging and production can be reproduced and reviewed.
Monitoring and runbooks
Logging, metrics, alerts and clear instructions for what to do when something goes wrong.
04Who it's for
- 01
An app that outgrew its first server
Traffic and data have grown, and the application slows down or goes offline at busy moments.
- 02
Manual, risky deployments
Releases are done by hand, happen rarely and often break something, so the team avoids shipping.
- 03
A backend for a new web or mobile app
A product needs a secure API, user management and a database that can serve several front ends.
- 04
Data that must stay in the EU
An organisation handles personal or sensitive data and needs hosting, backups and access control that support GDPR requirements.
05How we work
Audit or define requirements
For existing systems we audit hosting, code and security; for new ones we define load, data and availability requirements.
Design for today's scale
We choose the simplest architecture that meets current needs and leaves room to grow, instead of over-engineering.
Automate the path to production
Tests, builds, database migrations and deployments are automated before real traffic moves over.
Migrate with a way back
Production changes happen in steps, with backups and a rollback plan for each step.
Observe and tune
With logs and metrics in place, we find bottlenecks and tune queries, caching and resources based on real data.
06Technologies we use
Services & data
- Node.js
- Fast APIs and services in TypeScript
- Python
- Data processing, scripts and AI workloads
- PostgreSQL
- A reliable relational database with rich features
- Redis
- Caching, queues and rate limiting
Infrastructure & delivery
- Docker
- Portable containers for every service
- Kubernetes
- Orchestration when many services need to scale
- AWS / GCP / Azure
- Cloud chosen on features, cost and data location
- GitHub Actions
- Automated tests, builds and deployments
07Our standards
- 01
Security hardening
Least-privilege access, secrets management, encrypted connections and regular dependency updates.
- 02
Reliability
Health checks, automated backups and tested restore procedures for every production database.
- 03
Reproducibility
Infrastructure and configuration live in version control, so environments do not drift apart.
- 04
Cost awareness
Resources are sized to actual usage and reviewed, so cloud spend matches the value it delivers.
08Our projects in this field
See every project in 3D-

KickMate
A football app where friends predict match scores in private groups, with leaderboards and chat built in. Available in Turkish, English, German and Dutch. -
Lexipace
A speed-reading app: import a PDF, EPUB, web article or pasted text and read it word by word (RSVP) at your own pace. Built for students and exam preparation.
09Frequently asked questions
Can you host our data in the EU?
Yes. We can run your infrastructure in EU data centres, which helps with GDPR requirements.
Do you take over existing backends?
Yes. We audit the current setup, fix urgent risks first and then improve performance, reliability and deployment step by step.
Microservices or a monolith?
For most products a well-structured monolith is the fastest start. We split out services when scale or team size makes it worthwhile.
Can you help when our application is slow?
Yes. We measure where the time goes, often in database queries, missing caching or undersized resources, and fix the biggest bottlenecks first.
Do we need Kubernetes?
Not always. For many products, managed services or a few containers are simpler to run; we recommend Kubernetes when the number of services or the scale justifies it.
Who has access to our servers and data?
Only the people who need it, through personal accounts with the minimum rights required. Access can be reviewed or revoked at any time.
