Hiring a Cloud Partner: FAQs
Expert answers to help you navigate the complex cloud ecosystem.
Should I hire a platform-agnostic firm or a specialist?
If you are committed to a single provider (e.g., AWS), a specialist partner with **Advanced/Premier status** typically offers deeper expertise and access to funding programs. For multi-cloud strategies, agnostic firms are better suited to unbiased architecture.
How much do cloud consultants charge per hour?
Rates are generally higher than standard IT services due to the scarcity of certified talent. Expect to pay **$150-$250/hr for mid-level engineers** and **$300+/hr for senior architects**. Offshore options can reduce this to $60-$100/hr.
What is the "Shared Responsibility Model"?
This is a critical cloud concept where the provider (AWS/Azure) manages the security *of* the cloud (hardware, network), while you (and your consultant) are responsible for security *in* the cloud (data, user access, app code).
Can a consultant help reduce my existing cloud bill?
Yes. **FinOps services** are specifically designed for this. Consultants often work on a savings-share model, where they audit your environment for wasted resources and take a percentage of the savings they generate.
