The cloud,
done right.

Migrating off an aging file server. Replacing $4K/mo of duplicate SaaS. Setting up ArmorMail™ properly the first time. We do cloud work for small businesses that don't have a $200K/yr cloud architect on staff — and we run our own infrastructure to prove we know how.

From "what cloud do I need?"
to "everything works."

We can do the whole thing or the piece you can't figure out. Either is fine.

Cloud strategy & roadmap

What should live where? ArmorMail™ for email, ArmorStorage™ for files. Public cloud vs ours vs hybrid. We map it out before we move anything.

ArmorMail™ email

Set up properly: SPF/DKIM/DMARC, MFA, shared mailboxes, distribution groups, ArmorStorage™ structure, retention, archive.

File server migration

Old Windows file server → ArmorStorage™. Permissions preserved. Users barely notice.

Server consolidation

That old SBS box. The QuickBooks server. The "I don't know what this does" server. Replace with cloud or virtualize on modern hardware.

Cloud cost audit

Your AWS bill is $X,200/mo and growing. We audit what's running, what's stopped, what's orphaned. Most clients cut 30%+ in week one.

Hosted on Armor Studios

Want to dump big-tech? We host on our own multi-region infrastructure (Ashburn, Hillsboro, Nuremberg, Singapore). Sites, files, apps.

VPN & remote access

WireGuard or Tailscale set up for remote employees. Replace clunky legacy VPN with something employees will actually use.

Disaster recovery planning

"What happens if AWS us-east-1 goes down for a day?" We answer that question on paper before it happens for real.

Common cloud asks
we hear all the time.

File server

"Our server's 9 years old."

Migrate 800GB of shared files to ArmorStorage™, preserve permissions, archive the old box, switch shortcuts so users don't notice.

Email

"We're still on GoDaddy email."

Move to ArmorMail™, set up DMARC properly, train users, fix the spam reputation we inherited.

Cost

"Our AWS bill is killing us."

Audit what's running, kill orphaned resources, right-size what's left, move static workloads to flat-rate hosting where it makes sense.

Remote work

"12 employees, half remote, files everywhere."

Consolidate to one cloud file store with proper access controls. End the "is this the latest version" email thread forever.

Flat-rate projects or hourly.

Most cloud work is scoped as a flat-rate project. You know the cost before we start.

We own our infrastructure

20 dedicated servers across 4 regions, multi-region database replication, custom CDN. The depth shows up in your project.

Vendor-neutral

We don't get AWS/Azure reseller margin. ArmorMail™ and ArmorStorage™ run on infrastructure we own — predictable pricing, no per-seat lock-in. If AWS fits better for a specific workload, we'll deploy you to AWS.

Scoped before we start

Flat-rate quote with deliverables. No "+ hourly overruns" sneaking onto the invoice. If we missed something, that's on us.

Local engineer, global infrastructure

Tacoma-based. Same engineer for the discovery call and the rollout. No handoff to an offshore implementation team.

Common questions.

What are ArmorMail™ and ArmorStorage™?

ArmorMail™ is our hosted email platform — full IMAP/SMTP, webmail, calendar, contacts, anti-spam, MFA. ArmorStorage™ is our S3-compatible file storage — shared folders, per-user access controls, version history. Both run on the same multi-region infrastructure we run our own business on. Predictable pricing, no per-seat tax.

Can you migrate us off Dropbox / Box / WeTransfer?

Yes. Most clients move to ArmorStorage™. We preserve folder structure, share links, and version history where the source supports it.

Will my email be down during the migration?

No. We use phased cutovers where old and new run in parallel for 24-48 hours. Email keeps flowing during the switch.

Why would I host with Armor Studios instead of AWS?

Predictable flat-rate pricing. Real human support. Multi-region built in. If you need AWS-specific services (Lambda, DynamoDB, etc.) we'll deploy you to AWS — we're not zealots about it.

What if our project goes over the flat-rate scope?

If we missed something obvious in scoping, that's on us. If you ask for new things mid-project, we'll quote them as a change order before doing the work. No surprises.

Let's scope it.
