What Code To Cloud Inc. does

Code To Cloud Inc. is a privately held, veteran-owned fractional CTO and technology advisory firm incorporated in Alberta, Canada and headquartered in Calgary. It serves startup founders and growing-business owners across Western Canada (Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba) who face $50K+ technology decisions without senior technical guidance in-house, providing strategy, security, AI readiness, and cloud architecture advisory at a fraction of full-time CTO cost (referenced at $200K-$350K/year). The core product is Fractional CTO Advisory, delivered through a free 30-minute Calendly-booked strategy call followed by a scoped engagement model that includes assessment, forward deployed engineering, technology review, streamline operations/automation, email and collaboration setup, and training. A secondary web design practice sells three fixed-price packages (Starter $1,499 CAD, Professional $2,899 CAD, Commerce $4,499 CAD) targeting SMBs and solo practitioners.

The firm's principal technical asset is Kodra, an MIT-licensed open-source developer environment bootstrapper (Ubuntu Desktop v0.5.3, WSL2 v0.7.1, macOS v0.6.0) that pre-configures Azure CLI, azd, Docker, VS Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, Kubernetes tooling, Terraform, Bicep, and 40+ cloud-native tools in one command. Go-to-market is sales-led via Calendly with a community/content overlay: an annual Code To Cloud Summit (Calgary; 2026 held May 23 with Microsoft, RBC, Standard Chartered speakers), a multi-platform podcast, a Discord developer/founder community, and a 25+ article blog covering cloud, AI, Azure, Kubernetes, and AI adoption. The firm is deeply aligned with the Microsoft Azure and CNCF ecosystems, founder Kevin Evans is a CNCF Ambassador, and the company is PIPEDA-compliant with no external funding disclosed.

Product overview

Code To Cloud Inc. is a Calgary, Alberta-based technology advisory firm offering fractional CTO services and a portfolio of related digital products. The core offering is fractional CTO advisory — part-time senior technology executive support for startup founders and growing businesses, providing strategy, security, AI readiness, and technology decision-making without the cost of a full-time hire. This is delivered through a structured engagement: free strategy call, honest assessment, clear plan, and then advisory or forward deployed engineering. The principal product is Kodra, an open-source developer environment bootstrapper for Ubuntu Desktop, WSL2, and macOS that installs a complete Azure cloud-native toolchain (Azure CLI, azd, Docker, VS Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, Kubernetes tools, Terraform, Bicep, and 50+ more) in one command. Supporting the advisory practice, the company offers additional services including Technology Review (assessment of current technology stacks), Streamline Operations (automation and AI tools), Forward Deployed Engineering (embedded team-based engineering delivery), Email & Collaboration setup, and Training & Support. A web design practice provides three fixed-price website packages — Starter ($1,499 CAD), Professional ($2,899 CAD), and Commerce ($4,499 CAD) — built on Shopify for e-commerce. Community and content brands include the Code To Cloud Podcast (available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts), the annual Code To Cloud Summit (cloud, AI, and DevOps conference in Calgary), and a Discord community for Western Canadian developers and founders.

Direct peers

• Atomic Object: US-based custom software consultancy that also offers fractional CTO and technology advisory services for SMBs and growing companies. Closely comparable to Code To Cloud in target customer (non-technical founders, SMBs) and delivery model (senior consultants with hands-on engineering).
• Toptal: Global freelance talent marketplace connecting companies with fractional executives including CTOs, engineers, and designers. Comparable to Code To Cloud as a fractional CTO/advisory channel for SMBs, though Toptal operates a marketplace model rather than a direct advisory practice.
• Avanade: Joint venture between Accenture and Microsoft focused exclusively on the Microsoft ecosystem (Azure, Microsoft 365, Dynamics). Directly comparable to Code To Cloud's Microsoft-centric cloud advisory practice given shared Azure/Foundry/Bicep technology stack, though serving enterprise and global accounts rather than Western Canadian SMBs.
• West Monroe Partners: US-based management and technology consulting firm with cloud, data, and engineering practices serving middle-market companies, particularly in regulated industries like energy, financial services, and healthcare.
