Cloud & Infrastructure · AWS Managed Services
AWS Managed Services is the ongoing operation, monitoring, security hardening and cost optimization of workloads running on Amazon Web Services, covering compute, storage, networking and identity configuration. Evolvice runs AWS environments for DACH and KSA enterprises under defined SLAs, combining 24/7 monitoring with monthly cost and security reviews.
Overview
Most internal teams provision AWS correctly on day one but let configuration drift accumulate: security groups widen, unused resources keep billing, and IAM permissions outgrow actual need. We operate AWS accounts as a continuously governed environment: infrastructure-as-code baselines, automated guardrails, patch management and monthly cost/security review cycles, measured against uptime and response SLAs.

Patterns we repeatedly find when taking over an existing AWS estate.

Structure
The value of managed AWS operations is not the initial architecture but the continuous enforcement of security baselines, cost discipline and patch currency as the environment evolves. Configuration drift, not initial design error, is what causes most cloud incidents and cost overruns.
We structure operations around the AWS Well-Architected Framework, with defined guardrails, automated remediation and measurable review cycles.
Definition
The AWS Well-Architected Framework is a set of best practices published by Amazon Web Services for designing and operating cloud workloads across six pillars: operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, cost optimization and sustainability.
Delivery model
A repeatable five-step engagement we run for every AWS estate we take over.
Audit of account structure, IAM policies, network topology and running workloads against the AWS Well-Architected Framework, delivered within 10 working days.
Least-privilege IAM roles, security groups, AWS Config rules and Service Control Policies implemented across all accounts in the organization.
Rightsizing of EC2 and RDS instances, reserved instance or savings plan commitments, and removal of orphaned resources, typically reducing monthly spend by 15-30%.
CloudWatch alerting tied to on-call escalation, automated patch pipelines for EC2 fleets and container images.
Recurring report on cost trend, security posture, incident history and capacity forecast, with agreed remediation actions.
