We provision, harden, and operate cloud infrastructure on AWS, GCP, and DigitalOcean, and we hold ourselves to the standard of operators, not just architects. Ashton Group has run its own production fleets for over seven years, serving live data products around the clock.
Whether you are launching a greenfield environment, rescuing an unmanaged one, or planning a migration, we bring runbook-driven discipline: every change staged, reversible, and verified.
What we deliver
- Cloud architecture and provisioning across AWS, GCP, and DigitalOcean: compute, networking, DNS, TLS, storage, and managed databases
- Web serving stacks done right: nginx and Apache, gunicorn/WSGI application servers, TLS automation with Let's Encrypt
- Multi-tenant infrastructure: safely running many applications and APIs on shared environments without cross-impact
- Email deliverability and transactional mail infrastructure (SendGrid, SMTP relays) with delivery logging and diagnostics
- Push notification infrastructure: APNS fan-out systems, device-token management, and alert pipelines
- Cost optimization: right-sizing environments so performance scales without runaway spend
Proven in production
Ashton Group operates production stacks where a single shared backend serves eight applications simultaneously, deployed, verified, and evolved without breaking any of its tenants. Our deploy runbooks include blast-radius analysis, timestamped backups, staged rollouts, and endpoint-level verification after every change.
