# 04 · 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`](./branding.html)
**Formal brief:** [`../../divisions/sns-cloud.md`](../../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`](./branding.html) prompt
## TODO → Launch (see [`../../divisions/legal-structure.md`](../../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._
