What Cloudplexo does

Cloudplexo is a London-headquartered AWS Advanced Partner founded in 2019 that delivers cloud, AI, and cybersecurity services across Africa, the UK, and the Middle East, with offices in Lagos, Nairobi, Accra, Johannesburg, and Dubai. The company operates a horizontal go-to-market serving three primary segments — startups (via the AWS Jumpstart Program and incubator/VC partnerships with up to $5,000 in AWS credits per workload), SMBs (migration and managed services), and enterprises (AI Acceleration and security compliance referencing up to $1B AWS credits) — and packages a broad services catalog spanning Cloud Migration, AWS Managed Services, DevOps-as-a-Service, Database-as-a-Service, Security Compliance, Data Analytics, Data Management, and Cloud Training through its iLearnCloud platform.

Its underlying technology stack is built entirely on AWS native services (EC2, Lambda, ECS, EKS, RDS, DynamoDB, CloudFront, S3, Bedrock, SageMaker, Q, Lex, Personalize, Comprehend, Glue, Redshift) supplemented by a proprietary layer of three products: Wendu (AI-driven cloud cost optimization and security monitoring with a unified dashboard), AgentSpec (a platform for building AI agents that automate workflows), and AI Scan (a tiered AI data analytics consulting service with Basic, Professional, and Advanced offerings). The company holds 15+ AWS competency and delivery designations and is ISO certified, positioning it as a deeply embedded AWS ecosystem player rather than an independent platform vendor.

Cloudplexo's revenue model is a hybrid of professional services (project-based cloud migration, DevOps, AI consulting), managed services (recurring AWS infrastructure management, DBaaS, 24x7 monitoring), subscription SaaS (Wendu), and training (iLearnCloud). Distribution combines direct enterprise field sales with channel leverage through the AWS Partner Network and a startup ecosystem of incubators, accelerators, and investors; marketing is driven by content, webinars, industry events, and earned media including the 2025 ADEA Cloud Solution Provider of the Year award. The company's strategic focus is shifting from pure services delivery toward a multi-product SaaS portfolio anchored by Wendu, with AI Acceleration serving as the primary offensive vector into enterprise generative AI engagements.
