# Cloud Parallax > Cloud Parallax is a small cloud-native engineering and consulting firm. We design, build, and run production systems on AWS and Google Cloud for clients in Sri Lanka and the United States. We focus on three things — cloud-native build, modernisation, and consulting — and try to be honest about scope, cost, and timelines. ## Who we are - Legal name: Cloud Parallax, Inc. - Founded and headquartered: Colombo, Sri Lanka, with US operations. - Areas served: Sri Lanka, United States. - Contact: hello@cloudparallax.com - Website: https://cloudparallax.com ## What we do - **Cloud-native build** — Greenfield platforms on AWS or GCP. Containerised, observable, repeatable. Kubernetes (EKS/GKE) with golden paths, event-driven services on Lambda / Cloud Run / Pub/Sub, data and ML pipelines, Terraform/Pulumi modules owned by the client, CI/CD with sane secrets and promotion gates, production runbooks and on-call rotations. Typical engagement: 8–16 weeks · 2–4 engineers. - **Modernisation** — Migrating legacy estates onto modern cloud-native foundations without freezing the feature roadmap. Often pairs with FinOps work to bring cloud spend under control as part of the migration. - **Consulting** — Architecture review, FinOps, platform/SRE coaching, on-demand staff augmentation. Typical engagement: from 2 weeks · 0.5–2 people. ## Tools we publish - **AWS Latency Meter** — https://cloudparallax.com/aws-latency-meter/ — Free browser-side tool that pings every public AWS region and tells you which one has the lowest latency from your current location. No tracking, no sign-in. ## Key pages - [Home](https://cloudparallax.com/): Cloud-native engineering on AWS & GCP — overview of the firm and how we work. - [About](https://cloudparallax.com/about/): Mission, values, and the people you'll actually work with. - [Services](https://cloudparallax.com/aws-services/): Detailed breakdown of cloud-native build, modernisation, and consulting offerings. - [Case studies](https://cloudparallax.com/case-studies/): Illustrative composite engagements based on real client work; client identifying details are fictional. - [Blog](https://cloudparallax.com/blog/): Notes on AWS, GCP, FinOps, platform engineering, and the systems we build for our clients. - [Webinars](https://cloudparallax.com/webinars/): Upcoming live sessions on cloud-native architecture and FinOps. - [Careers](https://cloudparallax.com/jobs/): Open engineering roles. - [Contact](https://cloudparallax.com/contact/): Reach out for a consultation.
