What We Do

Hands-on cloud engineering for every Aggie, from first-years to grad students.

Cloud Workshops

Weekly labs on S3, CloudFront, DNS and TLS — the building blocks behind sites like this one.

AI Agents for Ops

Design multi-agent systems that plan, deploy, verify and diagnose cloud infrastructure.

Security First

Private origins, least-privilege access and verified certificates are our default, not an afterthought.

How This Site Is Hosted

This website is our own lab project. It is served end-to-end over HTTPS through a secure AWS pipeline:

Route 53 resolves our custom domain.
CloudFront delivers content and redirects HTTP to HTTPS.
AWS Certificate Manager provides the TLS certificate.
Amazon S3 stores files in a private bucket reachable only via CloudFront Origin Access Control.
