// aws cloud consulting partner
Cloud services built for growth.
End-to-end AWS solutions to help you build, run, and manage your cloud infrastructure with confidence — across Africa, Nigeria, and emerging markets.
// the workload, today
Three regions. Eleven million transactions a day. Two hours of paid sleep.
// how we run
Draw it. Build it. Hand it back working.
A small hive of certified AWS engineers in Lagos. We architect before we build, ship in two-week slices, and stay on call long after go-live.
Our Approach
We start every engagement by asking annoying questions about scale, tradeoffs, and what's actually broken versus what just feels slow. Then we draw the system before we build it.
Our Standard
We architect for the AWS Well-Architected Framework on day one, not as a retrofit. Terraform from the start. IAM that survives an audit. Diagrams that match what's actually deployed.
Our Promise
We don't disappear after go-live. We ship in two-week slices, you can stop us at any milestone, and most of our clients keep us on for managed services or quarterly reviews.
// what we ship
Seven services. One cloud. No generalists.
No GCP, no Azure, no on-prem, no rebrand of someone else's playbook. Each service ships fixed-fee with a written architecture before any code lands.
// 01
AWS Migration Services
Move workloads to AWS using the 6R framework — zero unplanned downtime, validated at every step.
// 02
Control Tower Solutions
Multi-account landing zones with guardrails, account factory, and centralised logging from day one.
// 03
Serverless Architecture
Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, DynamoDB — applications that scale to zero and back.
// 04
Container Solutions
ECS-on-Fargate when you want simple. EKS with Karpenter and IRSA when you actually need it.
// 05
Data & Analytics
S3 data lakes, Glue, Athena, Kinesis — pipelines your business can actually act on.
// 06
Security & Compliance
IAM that survives audit. ISO 27001, SOC 2, NDPA 2023 reviews aligned to AWS Well-Architected.
// 07
Cost Optimization
30–40% typical savings without degrading anything that matters. Savings Plans, right-sizing, NAT cleanup.
// shipped, in production
The metric that closed the deal.
A glimpse of what we've shipped — what broke, what we built, and the number that changed the conversation.
Hivecart Pay
Active-active multi-region for an 11M-tx/month payment platform — without changing a line of application code.
// $1.2M ARR contract closed two weeks after go-live
Lumen Health
Migrated $84k/month of idle RDS to Aurora Serverless v2 with p99 under 80ms — and a much smaller bill.
// 41% monthly bill reduction in three weeks
// after the cutover
What CTOs say once it's quiet again.
"Fortbees moved us off Heroku in eight weeks. Latency dropped, cost dropped, and our engineers stopped paging at 3am."
Adaeze Okafor
CTO, Hivecart Pay
"We were paying $84k/month on RDS that was 70% idle. Fortbees cut the bill by 41% in three weeks. Easiest ROI I've ever signed."
Marcus Bennett
VP Engineering, Lumen Health
"They added a multi-region setup so our largest customer would sign. The deal closed two weeks after go-live. They earned every dollar."
Sarah Lin
Founder, Routelane
