Technologies
We choose technology based on what delivers the best outcome — reliability, maintainability, performance, and security. Below is a snapshot of platforms and tools we commonly work with.
Our Technical Philosophy
We select our technical stack based on long-term maintainability and operational stability. At CuroByte, we believe that an engineered solution should be self-documenting, performant, and secure by default. Our expertise spans modern frontend frameworks like Nuxt to enterprise-grade cloud foundations on AWS.
Web & CMS Engineering
We build high-performance interfaces primarily using Nuxt and Vue.js for their superior SSR capabilities and developer experience. For content-heavy estates, we implement Drupal or WordPress with a focus on decoupled architectures and strict schema governance to prevent legacy bloat.
Backend & API Architecture
Our backend approach emphasizes type safety and architectural patterns like Clean Architecture. We design RESTful APIs with strict contract testing, ensuring that integrations between legacy Java systems and modern PHP services remain resilient and well-documented.
Data Engineering & Persistence
Persistence is the core of any platform. we specialize in relational database design using PostgreSQL and MySQL, focusing on query optimization, indexing strategies, and automated backup/restore verification to ensure data integrity at scale.
Cloud Infrastructure (AWS)
We treat infrastructure as software. Leveraging AWS, we use Terraform or AWS CDK to provision immutable environments. This ensures that scaling, security patching, and disaster recovery are automated processes rather than manual risks.
Primary Stack: AWS Lambda, EC2, RDS, CloudFront, and S3 integrated via Infrastructure-as-Code.
Managed IT & Network
Operational IT foundations covering networks, secure remote access, server lifecycle management, Wi-Fi optimisation, proactive monitoring, and structured user support.
Typical tooling: Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, VPN solutions, monitoring platforms, device and asset inventory tools.
Security & Technical Compliance
Security is an engineering discipline, not a checklist. We implement Zero-Trust principles, end-to-end encryption, and automated vulnerability scanning to help organizations prepare for ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials certifications.
Typical tooling: firewalls, endpoint protection, SIEM-style logging, vulnerability scanners, backup and recovery platforms.
Quality & Delivery
Sensible QA and delivery practices that reduce risk — test strategy, release readiness, and clean handover.
How we work
- Start with goals and constraints, not tools.
- Design for maintainability and operational clarity.
- Security and performance are treated as defaults.
- Document decisions so teams can move faster later.
