Cloud-Native Refactoring for Mission-Critical Web Platforms in the US

Turn fragile, legacy or monolithic web systems into resilient, cloud-native platforms engineered for performance, security and growth. Stralya refactors your critical applications with a fixed-price, outcome-driven approach – so your project actually makes it across the finish line.

Service scope

What Our Cloud-Native Refactoring Service Includes

Cloud-native refactoring with Stralya is a comprehensive, end-to-end service tailored to organizations that rely on complex, business-critical web platforms. Whether you operate a high-traffic marketplace, a corporate portal, an internal line-of-business system, a government platform or an enterprise eCommerce site, we design a modernization path that fits your risk profile and growth ambitions.

Core components of the engagement

Full technical and architectural assessment of your existing web platform, including codebase, infrastructure, integrations and security posture.
Cloud-native target architecture design on AWS, Azure or GCP, aligned with your business goals and compliance requirements.
Incremental refactoring roadmap that minimizes risk and maintains service continuity for customers and internal users.
Modernization of core application components, APIs and data flows to leverage managed cloud services and autoscaling.
Implementation of observability (logs, metrics, tracing) to give your teams real-time visibility into system health and performance.
Security hardening, access control and configuration standardization to reduce vulnerabilities across environments.
Automation of build, test and deployment pipelines to support continuous delivery and faster feature releases.
Performance optimization and capacity planning to handle traffic spikes and growth without re-engineering the platform.
Resilience and disaster recovery strategies, including failover, backups and tested recovery procedures.
Comprehensive documentation, runbooks and training sessions for your internal engineering and operations teams.

Optional add-ons

Ongoing managed services for cloud infrastructure, monitoring and incident response after go-live.
Advisory and implementation support for related initiatives such as Shopify web development services or other eCommerce platforms.
Modern UX and frontend redesign in collaboration with your in-house or external web design and development teams.
Security audits, penetration testing and compliance assessments tailored to your industry regulations.
Staff augmentation with senior cloud, DevOps or web development experts to support your internal team.
Cost optimization and cloud spend governance workshops to keep infrastructure expenses under control over time.
Every refactoring project is different. Before we commit, we invest time in understanding your context, constraints and objectives. If we believe the scope is unclear or the risks are not acceptable, we will not move forward until we can guarantee a controlled, realistic plan. This is how we protect both your investment and our promise: your project will cross the finish line.

Key Benefits for Digital Leaders in the US

Scalability that matches your growth pace
Handle traffic peaks, new markets and ambitious digital initiatives without rebuilding from scratch. Cloud-native architectures scale horizontally and adapt to your evolving business models.
Reduced operational risk and downtime
Modern deployment strategies, observability and recovery mechanisms significantly lower the risk of outages. Your teams gain visibility and control over how the platform behaves in production.
Optimized infrastructure costs
By right-sizing resources, using managed services and eliminating waste, we help you control and predict cloud spending while improving performance and reliability.
Stronger security and compliance posture
Refactoring is an opportunity to close security gaps, standardize configurations and align with international and industry standards relevant to the US market.
Empowered internal teams
Clean architecture, automation and clear documentation make it easier for your own engineers to maintain, extend and innovate on top of the refactored platform.

How we work

A Structured, Low-Risk Path to Cloud-Native

Cloud refactoring is too critical to improvise. Stralya follows a rigorous, step-by-step process that protects your business continuity while unlocking the full benefits of cloud-native architectures. Every phase is documented, validated with your stakeholders, and aligned with measurable outcomes in performance, reliability and cost.

We start with a deep audit of your existing systems, codebase, infrastructure and business constraints. We map dependencies, identify quick wins and high-risk areas, and align with your strategic priorities in the US and global markets.
We define the future architecture on AWS, Azure or GCP: microservices or modular monolith, databases, APIs, messaging, observability, security and compliance. You receive clear diagrams, a migration strategy and an implementation roadmap.
We refactor your application in controlled iterations: extracting services, modernizing components, optimizing data flows and introducing cloud-native capabilities. We keep your existing platform operational while new pieces are rolled out safely.
We apply rigorous testing (unit, integration, end-to-end, load and security testing) to validate behavior, performance and resilience. We fine-tune resources and configurations to reach your agreed SLAs and cost objectives.
We orchestrate a controlled go-live, with rollback strategies and 24/7 monitoring in the initial phase. Your teams receive documentation, runbooks and handover sessions so they can operate and evolve the new cloud-native platform confidently.

Popular Questions

Find Commonly Asked Questions

A lift-and-shift migration moves your existing application to the cloud with minimal changes. It is fast, but it usually keeps the same limitations: poor scalability, high maintenance, and limited resilience. Cloud-native refactoring, on the other hand, restructures your application to fully leverage cloud capabilities: modular architecture, autoscaling, managed services, observability and DevOps practices. It is more strategic and delivers long-term value instead of just changing hosting providers.
Yes. For most projects, we design an incremental refactoring and migration strategy that keeps your current platform running while new components are introduced gradually. We use techniques such as blue–green deployments, feature flags, shadow traffic and phased cutovers to minimize or eliminate downtime. If a short maintenance window is required, it is planned and communicated well in advance.
We work primarily with AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform, depending on your existing ecosystem, compliance requirements and strategic preferences. Our team is experienced with multi-region deployments, data residency constraints and hybrid scenarios where part of the system remains on-premise or in a private cloud.
Our preferred model is fixed-price, based on a detailed scope and architecture defined during the assessment phase. We break the project into clear milestones with deliverables and acceptance criteria. This gives you cost predictability and aligns our incentives with successful delivery. For very large or evolving programs, we may combine fixed-price phases with selective expert staff augmentation.
Yes. Project rescue is one of Stralya’s core strengths. We frequently step in when previous vendors have left unstable, half-migrated or poorly documented systems. We start by stabilizing the current platform, then re-assess the technical and architectural decisions, and propose a realistic plan to bring the project back on track with clear responsibilities and timelines.
