Deploy with less
crossing of fingers.
AWS migrations, application hosting, and deployment workflows. We help make your infrastructure easier to run and change.
Keeping it running
isn't the whole job.
Setfive is a small software team in Cambridge, Massachusetts. We help with AWS infrastructure and DevOps around the applications your business runs, not a cloud migration for its own sake.
Deployments depend on one person's memory.
A release means running commands by hand and hoping nothing was missed. We build repeatable deployment workflows, including configuration, checks, and a way to recover when a release doesn't go to plan.
You've outgrown the hosting setup.
Old servers or awkward hosting are holding the application back. We assess the workload and dependencies, then plan the move to AWS with data migration, cutover, and ongoing operations in mind.
The cloud bill is growing faster than the workload.
Unused resources, oversized services, and accumulated infrastructure can add up. We review what the application actually needs and propose changes, with reliability and maintenance effort considered alongside cost.
Troubleshooting starts after a customer complains.
Scattered logs and unclear alerts make incidents harder to understand. We help organize monitoring, investigate recurring problems, and document how the team should respond when something fails.
Change what needs changing.
We start with the current environment, access, and business constraints. Not every problem needs a new platform. We work through the deployment process, backups, recovery needs, and who will own the setup after the work is done.
What's hard
to keep running?
Tell us what you host today, where releases or operations get painful, and whether there's a migration deadline. We can work alongside your existing engineers.
You'll talk directly with the engineers doing the work. We'll ask about the workflow, the systems it depends on, and your budget or timing constraints before recommending a next step.

Before the migration.
A few things you might be wondering before getting in touch.
Talk about your projectCan you improve AWS infrastructure we already have?
Yes. We can review hosting, deployments, configuration, and recurring operational problems without starting a migration. We assess the current setup and access before recommending specific changes.
Do we have to move everything to AWS?
No. We look at the workload, costs, and the team supporting it. Keeping the current hosting, moving only part of the application, or simplifying the deployment process may make more sense than a full migration.
How do you handle downtime during a migration?
We plan around the application's dependencies, data, and tolerance for interruption. That includes rehearsing the move where practical, agreeing on a cutover window, and defining a recovery plan. We don't promise zero downtime before understanding the system.
Can you reduce our AWS bill?
We can review usage and identify opportunities such as unused resources or a simpler hosting arrangement. Any savings depend on the current setup. We consider the effect on reliability, performance, and engineering time before proposing a change.
Will you operate the infrastructure after the project?
We can help with ongoing infrastructure work or hand it over to your team. We agree on responsibilities, support hours, and response expectations separately. A project engagement does not automatically include round-the-clock incident coverage.
