Kubernetes & Container Orchestration

Production Kubernetes with sane defaults, guardrails and documentation — or honest advice that you do not need it.

Overview

Kubernetes is an outstanding platform and a system that must itself be maintained. For a team running a handful of services, a managed container service is often the better answer. For teams running many services, or needing consistent deployment across environments, it earns its complexity quickly.

When it is the right call, we build clusters that are boring on purpose: managed control planes, GitOps deployment, sensible resource requests, working autoscaling, real secrets management, tested backups and runbooks written for the person on call at 2am.

What you get

Managed control plane

EKS, AKS or GKE so your team operates workloads rather than the cluster itself.

GitOps deployment

The cluster state matches a Git repository, making every change traceable and reversible.

Guardrails in place

Resource limits, pod security, network policy and admission control configured before the first workload.

Operable by your team

Dashboards, alerts and runbooks handed over, not a platform only we understand.

How we work

  1. 01

    Qualify

    We check that Kubernetes is genuinely warranted, and say so when a simpler service would do.

  2. 02

    Build

    Cluster, networking, ingress, secrets, storage and observability delivered as code.

  3. 03

    Onboard

    Workloads migrated one at a time, each with resource limits, probes and dashboards.

  4. 04

    Operate

    Upgrade process, backup restores and incident runbooks proven with your team before handover.

Common questions

Do we actually need Kubernetes?

Often not. If you run fewer than about five services and have no multi-environment consistency problem, a managed container runtime is usually cheaper to own.

How do you handle cluster upgrades?

On a schedule, in staging first, with a documented rollback. Upgrades left too long are how clusters become unsupportable.

Can you support the cluster ongoing?

Yes, through a managed support arrangement, or we can back up your team while they take it on.

We will tell you what we would do, roughly what it costs, and whether it is worth doing yet.
