Frequently Asked Questions
What is Platform Engineering?
Platform engineering is the practice of building toolchains and workflows that efficiently reduce cognitive load and complexity for the application engineers, which in turn enables them to self-service their infrastructure and monitoring.
What is Infrastructure as Code (IaC) / Terraform?
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is an approach to managing cloud infrastructure through code. It allows for the automation of the provisioning and management of infrastructure resources, which helps organizations achieve greater scalability, consistency, and efficiency. Our IaC tool of choice is HashiCorp Terraform, which is the leading tool in the industry.
What is your technology stack?
We’re an AWS and Terraform platform engineering agency. We focus on shipping container workloads across Kubernetes, ECS, and AWS Lambda. We are Infrastructure as Code and GitOps subject matter experts.
Do you work with GCP, Azure, or other cloud platforms?
Sadly, no. We know where our expertise is and we’re sticking with it. We can help migrate off of those cloud providers if you’re struggling on them, but they’re not our area of expertise and we’ve chosen to focus completely on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
We’re always happy to refer organizations to folks in our network though, so if that is of interest, be sure to reach out and we’ll connect you with someone who can help at no cost to you.
What if we’re already launched on another Azure, GCP, Heroku, Linode, on-prem, or <insert your hosting solution here>?
That’s totally fine! We’ve done those migrations before, and if you’re interested in the switch to AWS then be sure to reach out and we can discuss if working with Masterpoint makes sense.
Can you customize your services to meet my organization's specific needs?
Yes, our cloud architecture expertise is wide ranging and we work to customize our suggestions and work to meet your organization’s unique requirements. We work closely with you to understand your goals and tailor our services to your specific needs.
What kind of customers do you work with?
We’re focused on high-growth startups and small to medium businesses. That said, we do have existing and past clients who range from Fortune 20 enterprises down to single person SaaS startups.
Do we have to pay you to provide ongoing maintenance for any platform engineering work you deliver?
That is totally up to you. We’re flexible with clients and understand that there are usually two schools of thought: a) You want to pay experts like us to build and run your platform on an ongoing basis OR b) You want to pay experts like us to build it, but want your internal teams to run it going forward. We happily support both of those options!
Do you do short term consulting or implementation work?
We do provide services that are shorter term. Our cloud assessment and Terraform transformation services are shorter engagements that provide a ton of value. Check them out on Our Services page.
Do you offer discounts to clients?
We’re a purpose driven organization and are always happy to discuss discounts for any potential customers who are working on climate action, DEI, or similar initiatives. Be sure to reach out and we can chat through it.
What if you we’re not the right fit for Masterpoint?
Then we still suggest that you get in touch! We love to help organizations who aren’t ready for their own platform or anyone struggling in the cloud. Our professional network is deep and we’re sure we can put you in touch with the right people at no cost to you.
