Kubernetes & cloud native consultancy

Kubernetes platforms your teams understand, control and evolve. From design to operations, on the cloud of your choice or on your own servers.

Let's talk about your projectApproach

Situations we see most often

  • Manual, slow and risky deployments that tie up your best people.
  • A cluster set up in a hurry that nobody dares to upgrade any more.
  • A cloud bill that keeps growing without anyone really knowing why.
  • Security and compliance requirements (NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001) that are hard to demonstrate.

What we do

  1. 01

    Architecture & migration

    Choosing the target (managed, on-premise, hybrid), splitting applications, and migrating in waves rather than in one big bang.

  2. 02

    Platform engineering

    A self-service internal platform for your developers: project templates, pipelines, on-demand environments.

  3. 03

    GitOps & automation

    Infrastructure as Code with Terraform or OpenTofu, declarative deployments with Argo CD or Flux, reproducible environments.

  4. 04

    Observability

    Metrics, logs and traces with Prometheus, Grafana and OpenTelemetry. Alerts that matter, not noise.

  5. 05

    Security & compliance

    Cluster hardening, secrets management, network policies, software supply chain, and evidence for your audits.

  6. 06

    FinOps

    Right-sizing, autoscaling, cost tracking per team and per service. You pay for what you use.

In the field

  • Video broadcasting

    Embedded Kubernetes, fully offline

    Context
    No prior experience with container orchestration, and an ambitious goal: Kubernetes clusters embedded in trucks that operate anywhere in the world, from jungle to desert, with no connectivity.
    What we did
    A tailor-made, fully air-gapped Kubernetes cluster, with performance tuning for video workloads: transcoding, labelling and more.
    Outcome
    A self-contained Kubernetes platform that runs without any connection, for a client starting from scratch.

  • Financial institution

    Secure cloud landing zone

    Context
    No landing zone or least-privilege model yet, and cloud authentication to integrate with the corporate identity system.
    What we did
    Landing zone set-up, integrated SSO, and policies (guardrails) that enforce internal rules automatically.
    Outcome
    More than 800 applications now run on this landing zone, which keeps evolving to add new services securely and compliantly.

How we engage

  • Audit & assessment

    A few days to a few weeks to assess a platform, a cluster or the feasibility of an AI project.

    You getA clear picture and a prioritised, costed roadmap.

  • Fixed-scope project

    One scope, one deliverable, one commitment: a migration, a platform, an AI use case from prototype to production.

    You getA solution in production, documented and handed over.

  • Team augmentation

    Senior engineers embedded in your teams to speed up a project or bring in expertise you are missing.

    You getImmediate capacity, and teams that level up.

  • Managed operations

    We operate and evolve your Kubernetes and AI platforms, with service levels we define together.

    You getMonitoring, upgrades and support at the agreed service level.

Frequently asked questions

Managed Kubernetes or on-premise?

It depends on your constraints: data, in-house skills, costs, sovereignty. We compare the options on concrete criteria and recommend the simplest one that does the job. Sometimes that is not Kubernetes.

Can you take over an existing platform?

Yes. We start with an assessment, secure what needs securing, then evolve the platform step by step while minimising the impact on your services.

Which clouds do you work with?

AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, European clouds such as OVHcloud or Scaleway, and on-premise. We favour portable architectures.

Could your platform use a fresh pair of eyes?

A few days of assessment is often enough to pinpoint the three workstreams that really matter.
