Platform Architecture & Strategy

Platform Architecture & Strategy

Kubernetes Architecture that
doesn't bite back

We design production-ready Kubernetes foundations your team can operate: cloud and cluster strategy, operators, packaging, policies, and developer setup — without over-engineering or vendor lock-in.

What We Do

Three decisions that shape your platform

01

Cloud & Cluster Strategy

We pick the right provider and cluster setup for your workload — AWS, GCP, Azure, European cloud providers, or self-managed infrastructure. Not based on vendor preference, but on your actual scale, budget, and team constraints.

02

Operator & Component Selection

We choose the right CNCF-grade operators for your stack — CNPG for Postgres, RabbitMQ Operator, cert-manager, external-secrets, and more. No reinventing the wheel, no vendor lock-in.

03

Packaging & Developer Setup

Everything gets packaged properly — custom Helm charts, optimised Dockerfiles, and dev containers so every engineer runs the exact same environment locally as in production.

Battle-Tested Components

Proven components, configured for your workload

We select production-grade Kubernetes operators and cloud-native tools from the CNCF ecosystem and beyond — then configure, integrate, and adapt them for your workload.

DATABASE

CloudNativePG (CNPG)

Production-grade Postgres operator. Automatic failover, backups, connection pooling. No manual DBA work.

Postgres
HA
Backups
MESSAGING

RabbitMQ Operator

Declarative RabbitMQ clusters on Kubernetes. Managed lifecycle, policies, and topology via CRDs.

Messaging
CERTIFICATES

cert-manager

Automatic TLS certificate management. Let's Encrypt, internal CAs, automatic renewal — zero manual rotation.

PKI
SECRETS

Sealed Secrets

Encrypt secrets with a cluster-specific key and store them safely in Git. Only the cluster can decrypt — secure by default.

GitOps
Encryption
NETWORKING

Ingress & Service Mesh

We choose the right traffic layer for your platform — NGINX Ingress, Traefik, Cilium, or service mesh patterns when the complexity is justified. Traffic routing, mTLS, observability, and policy enforcement where they actually help.

Custom Kubernetes Operators

When off-the-shelf doesn't fit, we encode your unique business logic into Kubernetes-native controllers written in Go.

Who This Is For

From greenfield to platform cleanup

Starting from scratch

New product, no infrastructure yet

Need to pick the right cloud and cluster setup

Want to do it properly from day one

Small team, no dedicated DevOps engineer

Already running, but messy

Deployments are manual or inconsistent

Dev environment doesn't match production

Every new engineer takes weeks to onboard

Raw Kubernetes YAML is spread across repositories

Start Here

Not sure where your platform stands? We’ll tell you in a week.

We start every engagement with a technical audit — no commitment required. You get a concrete gap analysis and a clear path forward.
