Service Scope In Waterloo

Metrotechs helps Waterloo, Iowa manufacturers and B2B operators make Cloud Cost Optimization decisions with a practical plan for AWS reliability, backups, monitoring, security, and migration risk. We focus on cloud foundations that support Odoo, integrations, portals, reporting, and data workflows without disrupting finance, fulfillment, or operations.

How Metrotechs Helps

How Metrotechs helps Waterloo companies with Cloud Cost Optimization.

+Review AWS hosting, backup, monitoring, access control, deployment, and recovery requirements before implementation decisions are made.
+Map the handoffs, data owners, approval points, and exception paths that the AWS hosting and migration roadmap has to support.
+Prioritize Instance Right-Sizing, Reserved Capacity Planning, and Auto-Scaling Policies into a roadmap leadership can sequence, budget, and govern.
+Assess the current hosting model, failure points, backup posture, deployment process, monitoring, and cost structure.
+Design AWS architecture around the systems the operation depends on, including ERP, portals, integrations, analytics, and data workloads.
+Build a migration and operations plan that protects continuity while improving reliability, visibility, and scalability.
Operational Problems

Common operational problems we help solve.

+Cloud Cost Optimization decisions are made before source systems, workflow ownership, and reporting requirements are understood.
+Teams keep Cloud Cost Optimization work running through spreadsheets, inboxes, or manual checks as volume increases.
+Servers or cloud accounts are running critical systems without a clear recovery plan.
+Performance issues are treated as isolated tickets instead of infrastructure and workflow symptoms.
+Cloud cost, access control, monitoring, and backup ownership are not reviewed together.

Cloud Architecture Design

Generic cloud architectures built from a vendor\u2019s reference design don\u2019t account for your ERP\u2019s latency requirements, your WMS\u2019s throughput demands, or your compliance obligations. We design cloud architecture around your actual workloads so everything performs on day one.

Cloud Data Migration

Manufacturing data \u2014 ERP databases, file shares, document archives, and transaction histories \u2014 is the most critical asset in a cloud migration. We migrate it with replication, validation gates, and integrity checks at every stage so nothing is lost, corrupted, or orphaned.

Cloud Migration Planning

Cloud migration without a plan is a weekend outage waiting to happen. We map every dependency, sequence every workload, define every cutover window, and document every rollback procedure \u2014 so migration day is a non-event, not a crisis.

System Assessment & Documentation

Most legacy modernizations fail because nobody fully understands what the old system actually does. We reverse-engineer your legacy system\'s business logic, data flows, and integrations -- creating documentation that probably never existed.

AWS Hosting & Infrastructure

We govern cloud migration in phases — every dependency mapped, every workload sequenced, every cutover window defined. Zero-downtime migration for manufacturers who can't afford an outage.

Cloud Security & Compliance

Manufacturing operations handle ITAR-controlled data, customer financial information, proprietary product designs, and supply chain intelligence. Moving to the cloud doesn’t change your compliance obligations — it changes how you meet them. We design cloud security that satisfies auditors and protects your operation.

Cloud Managed Operations

After migration, your cloud infrastructure needs the same operational discipline as your on-premise environment — monitoring, patching, backup validation, incident response, and capacity planning. Most manufacturers don’t have a cloud operations team. We provide it.
