About 56k.Cloud
56k.Cloud is the digital and cloud transformation partner for manufacturing — engineered from factory floor to cloud. We help manufacturers and machine builders connect machines, data, cloud platforms, software delivery, and AI into systems that can be secured, operated, and scaled. The outcome: more revenue, lower cost, less risk, and faster delivery of digital capability. We work where transformation gets difficult: the boundary between IT and OT. OT protects uptime and safety. IT protects security, architecture, and cost. The business wants speed, AI, and visibility. 56k.Cloud connects those worlds — with roots in embedded systems, networking, cloud engineering, AWS, edge IoT, DevOps, and AI foundations. For IT & software engineering leaders: when the business wants speed, you own the blast radius. We build the landing zones, edge-to-cloud architecture, industrial data paths, CI/CD, and AI lifecycle foundations behind safe transformation. For production & service leaders: your factory already produces signals. We turn them into uptime, maintenance foresight, lower operating cost, and digital service value. Swiss, independent, 100% employee-owned. AWS Advanced Partner. 150+ projects delivered since 2018. Most collaborations begin with a Discovery Workshop and one concrete proof — one machine, one signal, one decision. Bring us yours.
