WHO WE ARE

About us

Cloud Solitaire is a cloud consulting and DevOps company that was founded in 2022 and is based in Ahmedabad. We help businesses modernise, secure, and scale their infrastructure. Our company is built around one team owning the whole infrastructure lifecycle, rather than passing clients between specialists.

WHAT WE DO

Cloud architecture, DevOps, and the parts in between

We work with teams across industries to design cloud architectures that scale, automate the workflows around them, bring the bill down, and make security a decision taken on the way in. Migration, Kubernetes, CI/CD and disaster recovery planning, shaped around what you actually run rather than a standard package.

We work with teams from Mumbai to Arizona, on estates ranging from a four-person startup to a Fortune 500 migration. The work rarely ends at handover. Most of our clients are still with us years later, which is the part we are proudest of.

WHY WE STARTED

Born out of an obsession with the cloud.

The cloud is genuinely revolutionary, and most teams get a fraction of it. Running your application with the same availability, reliability and durability as Google or Amazon is something any team can do from the first day, on the same infrastructure, at a price a four-person company can afford.

Very few teams get there. The knowledge is scattered, the tooling changes every eighteen months, and the people who could fix it are already busy shipping features. We started this company to be the ones with the time.

WHAT WE STAND FOR

The things we don't compromise on.

We say no more than we say yes.

If the client's problem is not cloud- or DevOps-related, we say so and refer them elsewhere instead of taking work we don't handle.

We recommend the boring option when it is the right one.

The best solution isn't always the most complex. For example, we've recommended EC2 over Kubernetes when it is simpler and far cheaper.

We show our work.

Every recommendation includes the reason behind it. We explain the options we considered and why we didn't choose them. If you can't share our reasoning with your team, we need to clarify our explanation.

We stay reachable after the invoice is paid.

Our support won't end even if the contract does. Clients from our first year still message us when something's not adding up, and we still answer.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Win · Win · Win.

The company is a vehicle to fulfil the aspirations of everyone connected to it: our team, our customers, and our owners. When all three win, the business is worth building. When one of them loses, it is not.

A win for our teamthe people doing the work

Earnings that grow as the company grows, because success is shared rather than hoarded. Bigger responsibilities and real exposure, so the learning compounds. And a life outside work, rather than an eighteen-hour grind.

A win for our customersvalue delivered > price paid

More value from every rupee spent with us. We are paid for outcomes rather than hours logged, and when customers consistently get more than they pay for, they stay and they bring others.

A win for the companyso it can keep investing

A profitable business is one that can keep investing in its people and build a name known for quality and reliability. Time freedom is not time off. It is the freedom to stop firefighting and start building.

Only a business where every stakeholder wins is fun, focused and high-performance. That is the one we are building.

HOW WE MEASURE OURSELVES

Not by hours billed.

We don't track the number of hours as a success metric - we track three things:

Did they migrate or build land without an incident?

We prioritize achieving zero failed migrations across more than 70 projects, as this number is the most important to us.

Did the client's cloud bill go down and stay down?

We watch this not only at the end of an engagement, but also months later, when nobody is watching it.

Would the client call us again without being asked?

Most of our clients do.

CREDENTIALS

What we can show you.

AWS Partner Network

Cloud Solitaire is a member of the AWS Partner Network at Registered Services tier. Select is the next step, and it comes down to certifications across the bench.

Production, at scale

Twenty microservices moved from GCP to AWS for GoDaddy with no user-facing downtime. ECS to EKS for Firmway. Two providers consolidated into one for Zeno Health.

Vendor-neutral, on purpose

Nothing we recommend earns us a commission, so the advice is only ever about your workload. Sometimes that means the cheaper option, and occasionally the dull one.

THE TEAM

Who you would work with.

Sagar Gulabani

Founder & CEO

Sagar Gulabani founded Cloud Solitaire in 2022. He leads cloud architecture, CI/CD automation, and Kubernetes initiatives, with a proven track record that includes leading a global migration project at GoDaddy. Most client testimonials on this site refer to work he managed directly.

Behind him: cloud architects, DevOps engineers, SREs, solution architects and project managers, with decades of combined experience across cloud architecture, Kubernetes orchestration, CI/CD automation and infrastructure management.

We are technology-agnostic by design, so what gets recommended depends on your environment rather than on who we have a relationship with. The team spends real time on certifications and on things nobody has asked for yet, which is how you stay useful in a field that reinvents its tooling every couple of years.
