Cloud Infrastructure in Ann Arbor.
We build cloud infrastructure for Ann Arbor companies. Serverless AWS architecture, CI/CD, and integrations your team can maintain. As a remote-first studio, we work with Michigan businesses the same way we work with clients anywhere in the US.
[ Cloud Infrastructure in Ann Arbor ]
Research and startup workloads in Ann Arbor spike around experiments, launches, and paper deadlines. We build AWS serverless infrastructure that absorbs those bursts without standing idle the rest of the time, written as infrastructure as code so a technical founder or lab engineer can review and own every piece.
Ann Arbor workloads are spiky by nature. A research group's compute demand surges before a conference deadline and goes quiet after. A University of Michigan spinout's traffic jumps tenfold the week of a launch or a press mention. A mobility program ingests a flood of test data during a vehicle campaign, then trickles for a month. Infrastructure sized for the peak wastes grant money and runway all year; infrastructure sized for the average falls over at exactly the moment that matters most. Both failure modes are expensive in a city that runs on funded milestones.
Init One Solutions builds AWS infrastructure that follows the demand curve instead of fighting it. Serverless architectures scale up for the deadline crunch and cost almost nothing in the valleys, CI/CD pipelines let small Ann Arbor teams ship without a dedicated operations hire, and every resource is defined as infrastructure as code that a technical founder or lab engineer can read, review, and own. Monitoring and cost alarms are in the base configuration, so budget surprises surface in a dashboard rather than an invoice. We work remote-first, and the handoff target is your independence, not our retainer.

[ Working with us from Ann Arbor ]
We run on startup credits and grant money. Can AWS costs stay inside that?
Yes, if the architecture respects the constraint. We design serverless first, so an Ann Arbor startup or lab pays for actual usage instead of idle capacity, apply AWS credits where they stretch furthest, and set alarms well below your budget ceiling. You get a monthly forecast grounded in real traffic, and scaling decisions stay yours to make.
Will the infrastructure survive investor or partner technical diligence?
It is built to. Diligence teams evaluating an Ann Arbor company look for infrastructure as code, least-privilege access, encrypted data at rest and in transit, tested backups, and deployment history, and our default architecture includes all of it. We also produce the architecture documentation reviewers ask for, so diligence becomes a walkthrough rather than a scramble.
Whose AWS account does everything live in?
Yours, from the first resource. The account belongs to your Ann Arbor organization, billing goes to you, and our access is scoped and revocable at any time. That matters for grant compliance and for exits alike: when the engagement ends or the company is acquired, there is nothing to transfer because you always held it.
