Optimisation & performance

We have seen what slows your application down. And we know exactly how to fix it.

Diagnose my application
Is this you?

Your application is sending you signals. Are you hearing them?

Performance signal

We pay attention to everything: slow loading, cloud overspend and queries that drag your app down.

Security signal

We also uncover unaudited vulnerabilities, uncertain compliance and poorly secured access.

Architecture signal

Rigid code, technical debt and outdated dependencies hold back progress. Nothing escapes us.

What sets us apart

What sets us apart from a conventional audit.

A conventional audit hands you a report. We hand you the result.

01

We measure beforehand.

Current metrics documented before any work begins, so that you can compare.

02

We implement.

We do not write recommendations, we apply them directly in your code and your infrastructure.

03

We measure afterwards.

A before/after report with real metrics. You see exactly what changed, in figures.

Deliverables

What you get back at the end of the engagement

A conventional audit stops at the report. Here the report is one deliverable out of five: the fixes are in your code, and the figures that prove them are measured before and after.

  • Deliverable 1

    Baseline measurements

    The state of your application in figures before any work begins: response times, resource usage, points of contention.

    Baseline measurements of the application
  • Deliverable 2

    Prioritised action plan

    What we fix, in what order, and the gain expected from each. Agreed with you before we touch anything.

    Prioritised action plan
  • Deliverable 3

    The fixes in your code

    The heart of the engagement. Applied in your repository and your infrastructure, tested in an isolated environment before production.

    Fixes applied in the code
  • Deliverable 4

    Before/after report

    The same measurements as at the start, taken again at the end. What changed, by how much, and what is still open.

    Before and after comparison report
  • Deliverable 5

    Documentation and handover

    What was changed and why, so that your team can hold the state we reached without us.

    Documentation and handover
  • The gain has to outlast our departure

    We document every fix so that your teams can maintain it, not so that they have to call us back.

    A lasting gain after the engagement
Plans

Three types of engagement. One standard, measurable results

Each plan targets a specific concern: performance, security or architecture. The price follows the scope, and the gains depend on your application: the diagnostic puts a figure on both before you commit to anything. A free diagnostic points you to the right one.

Process

From audit to sign-off

From audit to sign-off, what actually happens.

01

Diagnostic

We audit your application, measure current performance and identify the critical points to tackle first.

02

Action plan

We define a costed optimisation strategy with measurable targets, agreed with you before any work begins.

03

Implementation

We develop and test every optimisation in an isolated environment before touching your production system.

04

Sign-off

We compare the metrics before and after, then deploy to production with post-launch monitoring.

05

Handover

We hand you a full report with the results, the technical documentation and our recommendations for what comes next.

After Scale

Your application is back in shape.

Now is the right moment to take out Care, so that it stays that way.

What they say about us

Two years growing the same platform.

Scaling is judged over time, not on a single release.

I have been working with the e-gbavou team for two years now. Their development skills are exceptional. This is a highly motivated team, serious and diligent. I highly recommend them.
