05 · SNS Cloud — Scaffold / Research / TODO

Status: Planned · Tagline: Infrastructure Without Limits Entity: SNS Cloud LLC (operating subsidiary of SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC) Liability tier: Medium — professional liability; client cloud spend + data handling create fiduciary/contractual responsibility Signature accent: Sky #38BDF8 — see branding.html Formal brief: ../../divisions/sns-cloud.md

Scaffold / Research

  • The scale layer — anything hosted off-premises; the scalable extension of SNS Systems.
  • Services: AWS/Azure architecture + deployment, hybrid (on-prem ↔ cloud) migration, IaC + CI/CD automation, cloud networking/security/cost optimization, backup/DR/business-continuity in the cloud.
  • Boundary line: Cloud = off-prem compute. Systems = on-prem. Infrastructure = the LAN/wire.
  • Naming caution: "SNS" also = AWS Simple Notification Service — keep technical proposals/docs unambiguous.
  • Define account ownership up front — who owns the client's cloud account (client-owned preferred, per open-standards principle).

TODO → Plan (do before creating milestones)

  • Standardize IaC tooling (Terraform/CloudFormation) + CI/CD baseline
  • Define landing-zone / account-structure + security baseline templates
  • Pricing: project vs. managed cloud (coordinate managed with Support)
  • Decide primary platform focus (AWS-first per parent's stated preference)
  • Cost-optimization / billing-transparency offering
  • Get E&O insurance quotes
  • Finalize logo from branding.html prompt

TODO → Launch (see ../../divisions/legal-structure.md)

  • Form SNS Cloud LLC on INBiz (owner: Holdings LLC) · EIN · operating agreement
  • Separate business bank account
  • Bind E&O + general liability insurance

Milestones

TBD — populate once the plan above is complete.
