Does it really matter?
Less than vendors suggest. We design in plain building blocks — functions, queues, databases — so the plan maps cleanly to any provider. That keeps you portable and lets you compare like-for-like.
Other options
For simple sites and early products, Cloudflare, Vercel, Netlify or DigitalOcean can be simpler to start. We recommend them when they fit — and can manage them for you just the same.
Frequently asked questions
All FAQs →Can my data stay in Canada?
Yes — AWS, Azure and Google Cloud all have Canadian regions, and we deploy there by default for Canadian clients.
Can we switch clouds later?
Yes, with planning. Generic building blocks and infrastructure as code keep migrations manageable.
Do we need a multi-cloud setup?
Rarely. For most businesses one well-run cloud is simpler, cheaper and more reliable.
