Who is it for?
Backend & cloud solutions for every stage of growth
Whether you're launching an MVP or modernizing enterprise infrastructure, we build backend systems that scale with your ambitions.
Startups
Need a reliable backend fast? We build MVPs with production-grade infrastructure from day one — APIs, databases, authentication, and deployment pipelines that scale with you from zero to thousands of users.
Small and Medium-sized Enterprises
Outgrown your current infrastructure? We modernize legacy backends, optimize database performance, migrate to the cloud, and build the APIs and integrations that power your digital operations.
Enterprises
Transform operations with microservices architecture, robust cloud infrastructure, and high-availability systems. We build backend platforms that meet enterprise security, compliance, and performance requirements.
WHAT WE DO
Design Key's Backend and Cloud Development services
Backend for Web Applications
Robust server-side solutions that ensure functionality and optimal performance. We build and manage business logic, APIs, and infrastructure to provide smooth, high-performance web platforms.
Backend for Mobile Applications (iOS, Android)
Custom mobile backend development for different platforms and devices. Our team creates backends for both native apps (Java/Kotlin, Swift) and cross-platform apps (Flutter, React Native).
Cloud Infrastructure & Migration
Leverage the power and scalability of cloud computing with AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. We design cloud-native architectures and migrate existing systems to reduce costs, enhance security, and enable elastic scaling.
API Development & Integration
RESTful and GraphQL APIs built for performance and reliability. We design clean API contracts, implement rate limiting and caching, and integrate with third-party services like payment gateways, CRMs, and analytics tools.
Database Architecture & Optimization
Choose the right database for your needs — PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, or a combination. We design schemas, optimize queries, implement caching layers, and ensure data integrity at scale.
Microservices Architecture
Break monolithic applications into scalable, independently deployable services. We design service boundaries, implement inter-service communication, and set up service discovery and load balancing.
DevOps & CI/CD Pipelines
Automate your development workflow with Docker, Kubernetes, and modern CI/CD tools. We set up infrastructure as code, automated testing, continuous deployment, and monitoring dashboards.
Backend Refactoring & Modernization
Improve performance, maintainability, and scalability of existing backend systems. We implement code revisions, optimize server-side logic, upgrade dependencies, and modernize legacy architectures.
