Empowering organisations to realise the full value of AWS cloud computing.
To be a trusted partner to our customers, helping them to be the best they can be, through innovative AWS cloud solutions.
In 2016, D55’s co-founders met as part of a team solving complex B2B billing problems in the energy industry. The team had a perfect mix of technical talent, a growth mindset, minimal ego, and a collaborative and supportive dynamic. Above all, they built a reputation for getting stuff done. D55 was founded in 2018, quickly achieving AWS partnership in 2019 and adding dozens of highly skilled Cloud Architects, DevOps Engineers, Analysts and Testers. We’ve never looked back.
It’s fair to say we know a lot about B2B energy, and have worked on a wide range of engagements including incredibly detailed industrial pricing engines to complex systems integration between multiple COTS systems. We’ve found over time that the challenges and opportunities facing the energy industry also apply to many other sectors. AWS recognised our skills by awarding D55 the Energy Competency in 2024.
As an aside, a “D55” is a data bundle sent between energy suppliers in the UK when a consumer switches to a new provider. This is a nod to our energy heritage, and also to switching to something new and better when you engage with D55.

To those in the know, the name “D55” indicates where the business came from - solving complex problems in the Energy sector using AWS technology. Whilst we think our combination of skill and knowledge around Energy and AWS is unique, the challenges the sector faces around data and applications are very similar to those in other industries. Our expertise also guides many other businesses - often those propelled by Private Equity funding - from maritime shipping intelligence to high growth SaaS ISVs.
