CloudForge is CloudComputing and Systems Architecture consulting firm specialising in the use of technologies to provide large scale, bespoke networking and infrastructural solutions. Founded in 2004 by a group of technologically compatible friends, the company’s four founding members represent over a century of combined South African ISP, networking and open source experience.
When you can’t find an off-the-shelf or out-of-the-box solution that works for your organisation, or you are ready to take an idea through the product development lifecycle and bring it to market, we are here to help. CloudForge has specialised in delivering custom technology solutions and custom application development since 2004.
We emphasise the word “solution” because not every project requires complete custom development. With an ever-growing availability of platforms, components and tools that can be configured, adapted, combined and extended, a critical part of solution design is understanding and selecting the right technologies to match your vision. When possible, utilising available platforms and components can jump-start your implementation, speed up time to market and reduce development costs.
Even in the case where complete custom software development is needed, there are several technology decisions that must be made such as the development language, coding frameworks, user interface technology and database management system.
That is why we take great care to staff our team with expertise in a wide range of technologies. We will never fit your problem to a particular technology like some firms who specialize in single technologies. Rather, we always look to find the right technology for you, matching your organization, your project and your budget, and have a team of technologists who can deliver.
