Application Development

Your legacy application is holding you back. Your monolithic architecture doesn't scale. Your time-to-market is too slow. Google Cloud offers the most advanced platforms for building and deploying applications that scale automatically—and we'll implement them for you.

The problem we see

Most companies that contact us find themselves in one of these situations:

1
A monolith that doesn't scale — A single massive application that takes weeks to deploy a change. If one part fails, everything goes down.
2
Manual and slow deployments — No automated CI/CD. Every release is a risky event with planned downtime.
3
Fixed infrastructure costs — You pay for servers 24/7 even if your app only experiences usage spikes for 8 hours a day.

The right platform for every situation

Google Cloud offers several computing options. The key is to choose the right one—not the most popular one:

Cloud Run
Recommended for 80% of cases

Serverless containers that scale down to zero. No infrastructure to manage. You pay only for the requests it processes. Deploy with a single command.

Ideal for: APIs, backends, microservices, webhooks, web apps.
GKE
Full control with Kubernetes

Kubernetes managed by Google. For complex microservices architectures with advanced networking, service mesh, or GPU requirements.

Ideal for: Complex SaaS platforms, ML serving, workloads requiring granular control.
Cloud Functions
Event-driven functions

Functions triggered by events: uploads to Cloud Storage, messages in Pub/Sub, changes in Firestore. Serverless, no idle costs.

Ideal for: Event processing, integrations, automations.

How We Work — From Concept to Deployment

Whether it's a migration or a new development, we follow a clear process:

01
Assessment and Architecture

We analyze your current app (or your requirements if it’s a new one), map dependencies, and design the optimal cloud architecture. We’ll explain why we recommend Cloud Run, GKE, or Functions—and how much it will cost.

02
Containerization and development

We containerize your app (or build it from the ground up as a cloud-native app). We integrate with Cloud SQL, Firestore, Cloud Storage, Pub/Sub—whatever you need. Secure APIs with API Gateway.

03
Full CI/CD pipeline

Cloud Build + Artifact Registry + Cloud Deploy. Push to main → automated tests → build → deploy to staging → approval → production. Deploy multiple times a day with complete confidence.

04
Observability and autoscaling

Cloud Monitoring, Cloud Logging, Error Reporting, Cloud Trace. See exactly what’s happening in production. Auto-scaling configured so your app stays responsive no matter the load—and scales down to zero when it’s not in use.

Real-world scenarios we solve

This isn't just theory—these are the kinds of projects we typically deliver:

Immigration
Mono-arch Java/PHP app on Cloud Run

We containerized the app without rewriting any code, set up Cloud SQL as the backend, and deployed it to Cloud Run. We went from three fixed-price servers to a pay-as-you-go model, saving 60% on infrastructure costs.

New development
Backend API for a mobile app

Backend on Cloud Run + Firestore + Firebase Auth. Auto-scaling for peak user traffic. Push notifications with Firebase Cloud Messaging. From scratch to production in 6 weeks.

Automation
Document processing pipeline

Cloud Functions are triggered when PDFs are uploaded to Cloud Storage. Document AI extracts data, saves it to BigQuery, and triggers workflows using Cloud Workflows. Serverless, maintenance-free.

Platform
Multi-tenant SaaS on GKE

Microservices architecture on GKE with the Istio service mesh. Each client is isolated in its own namespace. CI/CD with Cloud Build and canary deployments. Automatic horizontal scaling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which platform is better: Cloud Run, GKE, or App Engine?+

Cloud Run is the default choice in 80% of cases: serverless, scales down to zero, and requires no infrastructure management. GKE is for complex architectures that require full control over Kubernetes. App Engine is more of a legacy solution—for new projects, we recommend Cloud Run. We’ll help you choose during the initial assessment.

Can I migrate my monolithic app without rewriting it?+

Yes. We containerize your app as-is (using Docker) and deploy it to Cloud Run or GKE. No code changes required. You gain scalability, cost savings, and CI/CD from day one. Rewriting it as microservices can come later, when it makes sense.

How much does Cloud Run cost?+

Cloud Run offers a free tier of 2 million requests per month. After that, it charges based on CPU/memory/second of usage. A typical app with ~100,000 requests per day can cost less than €20 per month. "Scale to zero" means that during hours with no traffic, the cost is literally zero.

What languages and frameworks do you support?+

Cloud Run runs any Docker container, so it supports everything: Node.js, Python, Java, Go, PHP, .NET, Ruby, Rust. Frameworks like Next.js, Django, Spring Boot, Laravel, Express—if it runs in a container, it runs on Cloud Run.

Can you integrate AI into my app?+

Yes. With Vertex AI, you can add ML models to your app (predictions, classification, NLP). With the Gemini API, you can integrate generative AI directly. And with Document AI, Vision AI, or Speech-to-Text, you can automate the processing of documents, images, and speech.

Do you have an app that needs to be updated?

We'll provide you with a free architecture assessment and tell you exactly which platform you need and how much it will cost.
