Cloud Audit in Belfast
A review of what a Belfast organisation is actually running in the cloud, and who owns it. Most estates contain resources nobody recognises — an environment built for a project that ended, a database kept because deleting it felt risky — and the audit's first job is producing a list with a name against every line.
Why this comes up
The problem
The monthly bill is understood in total and nobody can say what a third of the individual resources are for.
What you get
What we deliver
- A complete inventory across every account and subscription, including forgotten ones
- An owner identified for each resource, or the fact that there is not one recorded
- Idle and orphaned resources listed with what they cost to keep
- Environments compared, since non-production is frequently sized like production
- Exposure checked — anything reachable publicly that was not intended to be
- Commitments and reserved capacity reviewed against what is genuinely running

Cloud Audit in Belfast — common questions
- Why start with ownership rather than cost?
- Because nothing gets switched off without it. A list of expensive resources produces a discussion in which nobody is willing to confirm that anything is safe to remove, whereas a list with a named owner per line turns the same exercise into a series of quick decisions.
- What typically turns up?
- Unattached storage volumes, load balancers with nothing behind them, snapshots going back years, development environments running through the night and at weekends, and at least one account somebody created outside the normal process that nobody has looked at since.
- Is this the same as cost optimisation?
- It is what should precede it. Optimisation reduces the price of what you run; the audit establishes whether you should be running it at all — and turning something off saves considerably more than resizing it.
- How often is it worth repeating?
- Annually for most organisations, and after any period of rapid change. Estates accumulate quietly, so a review each year keeps the inventory honest — and the second audit is always faster than the first because the tagging and ownership work from the first one is still in place.
- Do you work with businesses across County Antrim?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Northern Ireland, including Belfast and the surrounding County Antrim area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Belfast businesses do you usually work with?
- Fintech and security-accredited systems, plus trading platforms that handle the specific customs position on goods. Beyond that we work across Fintech, Cyber Security, Film & Media, Manufacturing and Higher Education.
- Do you cover the areas around Belfast?
- Yes — we work throughout Northern Ireland, including Lisburn, Bangor, Newry. Belfast is an urban area of roughly 345,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Antrim region rather than the city boundary alone.
