Cloud strategy
Select the right architecture and migration path for business and mission needs.
Home/Technology/Cloud & infrastructure
A secure foundation for continuous change.
Modernize infrastructure, applications, and operating models to improve resilience, scalability, and delivery speed.
The DCLS approach
Cloud transformation shaped around your mission.
DCLS modernizes infrastructure, applications, and operating models with security and cost discipline built in from the first design decision, not added after migration.

How we work
From engagement to outcome.
- 01
Assess
Review the current environment, workloads, and modernization goals.
- 02
Modernize
Define the target architecture for resilience, security, and cost.
- 03
Migrate
Guide implementation across infrastructure, CI/CD, networking, and identity.
- 04
Operate
Establish monitoring, governance, and cost management as standard practice.
Use cases
Cloud & infrastructure applications.
- Migrating workloads to the cloud without disrupting day-to-day operations
- Modernizing applications still running on aging, on-prem infrastructure
- Meeting FedRAMP and NIST 800-53 baselines before a government system goes live
- Right-sizing cloud spend that crept up with every new workload
Frequently Asked Questions
Your questions, answered.
Can you work alongside our existing IT or engineering team?
Yes — DCLS engineers guide implementation alongside client teams rather than replacing them.
How long does a cloud migration typically take?
Timelines depend on the size and complexity of the environment — migrations move from assessment to a defined target architecture, with implementation phased to avoid disrupting operations.
Which cloud platforms do you work in?
DCLS has depth across AWS, Azure, and GCP, and recommends the platform that fits your existing environment and mission needs.
Can you design to our compliance baseline?
Yes. For government work, DCLS designs to relevant frameworks such as FedRAMP and NIST 800-53 from the start of the engagement.
Do you help manage cloud costs after migration?
Yes — cost management is part of ongoing cloud operations, alongside monitoring, governance, and reliability.
