Can you support a French payment institution's transition to MiCA-aligned crypto reporting?

Yes, we design transaction reporting and custody architecture that can evolve from PSAN-era expectations toward MiCA's EU-wide technical standards.

Do we need to rewrite our entire application to modernize it?

No. We use incremental strangler-fig migration patterns that modernize piece by piece without a risky full rewrite.

Which cloud platforms do you work with?

AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform, selected based on your existing footprint and workload requirements.

Can you reduce our cloud costs?

Yes, through right-sizing, reserved capacity planning, and architecture optimization — typically 20-35% savings without sacrificing performance.

How long does a modernization project take?

A modernization assessment takes 2-4 weeks; full migration timelines range from 3-9 months depending on system complexity.

Cloud Modernization & DevOps Engineering in France

Legacy monoliths slow every release and every hire. Hurain Technologies modernizes applications and infrastructure for enterprises that need to move faster without breaking what already works — monolith-to-microservices migration, cloud-native re-architecture, and DevOps automation that shortens release cycles from weeks to days. In France, that means building to the technical expectations of Europe: Crypto-asset service providers marketing to French residents generally register as a PSAN with the AMF, with AML/CTF supervision coordinated alongside the ACPR.

France Regulatory Landscape

What cloud modernization buyers in France need to know

Crypto-asset service providers marketing to French residents generally register as a PSAN with the AMF, with AML/CTF supervision coordinated alongside the ACPR.
Payment institutions and e-money issuers are licensed and supervised by the ACPR under France's implementation of EU payment services standards.
France's PSAN regime is progressively aligning with the EU-wide MiCA framework, reshaping reporting and custody expectations for registered firms.
We build the technical controls — KYC/AML workflows, custody security, audit logging — these bodies expect, alongside French-qualified legal and compliance counsel for the registration itself.

The Challenge

Problems we see teams struggling with

Slow, risky releases

Monolithic architecture means every deployment is high-risk and requires full regression testing.

Rising cloud costs without visibility

Lift-and-shift migrations often increase cost without improving performance or scalability.

Scaling bottlenecks under load

Tightly coupled systems can't scale individual components independently during demand spikes.

Manual, inconsistent deployments

Without CI/CD automation, releases depend on manual steps prone to human error.

Vendor and framework lock-in

Legacy systems built tightly around a specific vendor's proprietary tooling become expensive and risky to migrate away from even when the business need clearly justifies it.

No observability into production failures

Without distributed tracing and centralized logging, diagnosing a failure in a microservices environment can take hours instead of minutes.

Our Approach

How we deliver cloud modernization in France

Monolith-to-microservices migration

Incremental decomposition using strangler-fig patterns that modernize without a risky big-bang rewrite.

Cloud-native application development

Containerized, horizontally scalable applications built for AWS, Azure, or GCP from the ground up.

DevOps & CI/CD automation

Automated build, test, and deployment pipelines that cut release cycles from weeks to days.

Kubernetes & container orchestration

Production-grade Kubernetes clusters with autoscaling, service mesh, and observability built in.

Cloud cost & performance optimization

Right-sizing, reserved capacity planning, and architecture tuning that cuts cloud spend without sacrificing performance.

Modernization assessment & roadmap

A prioritized, risk-ranked roadmap for legacy systems before a single line of code changes.

Observability and incident response tooling

Distributed tracing, centralized logging, and alerting built in from day one, so production issues are diagnosed in minutes rather than hours.
