Our Approach
Modern, Agile Project Delivery.
Our team are recognised by Microsoft as Azure, DevSecOps, and cloud native (PaaS, serverless, containers) experts. We deliver complex client projects but remain transparent, straightforward, and easy to partner with.
BlakYaks advocate for building and operating all cloud platforms (landing zones, container, data) entirely with code (IaC). This approach gives our customers operational efficiency, enhanced security posture, and cost reduction.
