Frequently asked questions about AWS Consulting in Rostock
In the DACH mid-market, we primarily see EC2 (virtual servers), RDS for PostgreSQL/MySQL, S3 for storage, CloudFront as a CDN, and increasingly Lambda for event-driven workloads. For DSGVO-relevant data, Frankfurt (eu-central-1) is the standard. Industry-specific in Rostock, IoT Core (logistics), AWS RoboMaker (industry), or SageMaker (AI projects) are often added.
We work with transparent daily rates instead of nested fixed-price constructs. A typical initial consultation (architecture review, roadmap, effort estimation) costs between 2,000 and 5,000 EUR and lasts 2 to 4 days. Longer engagements are billed on a daily or sprint basis. Travel to Rostock is included if needed – we are located in Hamburg and can be on-site in 1 to 2 hours.
Both hyperscalers cover most mid-sized business requirements. AWS offers a larger variety of services and a more mature tooling landscape, while Azure benefits if the company is already Microsoft-focused (Office 365, Active Directory, .NET stack). We provide vendor-neutral evaluations - including multi-cloud options, in case vendor lock-in is a risk.
