Managed OpenShift · 24×7 · Named senior engineers

Your OpenShift, run by the engineers who'd build it.

The senior engineers who run your changes are the ones who answer your 3am P1. No shared NOC, no tier-1 runbook readers — and transparent per-cluster pricing. Today we run a 30+ cluster shipboard fleet plus shoreside clusters for a Fortune-500 enterprise.

Fleets & edge

Running 10+ clusters — or hundreds of identical edge or shipboard sites? We price per fleet, not per cluster, because identical sites cost less to run.

Built it with us?

Clusters we migrated or built skip most of onboarding — the engineers who built them stay on to run them.

What's covered

The ongoing work most teams aren't staffed for.

  • ✓24×7 coverage from named, US-based senior engineers — no shared NOC
  • ✓Tiered SLAs with acknowledge, engage, and mitigate milestones
  • ✓Upgrades, patching, scaling, backup/DR operations, and incident response
  • ✓Clean Red Hat escalation when an issue is upstream
  • ✓Transparent per-cluster pricing — no surprise change orders
How it starts

Live in weeks, not quarters.

  1. 01

    Health check

    We review your clusters, alerting, backups, and upgrade path — and fix the urgent findings first.

  2. 02

    Onboard

    Access, runbooks, monitoring, and escalation paths set up with your team. Usually two to four weeks.

  3. 03

    Operate

    Named engineers run the platform 24×7: patching, upgrades, incidents, and Red Hat escalation.

  4. 04

    Improve

    Monthly reporting and a standing backlog of fixes, so the platform gets quieter over time.

Questions

What teams usually ask.

Who actually answers the page?
A named, US-based senior engineer from a small rotation you get to know — not a shared NOC or a tier-1 runbook reader.
Do you only manage clusters you built?
No. We take over existing OpenShift and Kubernetes clusters after a health check. Most of our migration clients roll straight into managed operations, though.
How is pricing calculated?
Per cluster, per month, by tier — with volume pricing for fleets of 10+ clusters and per-fleet pricing for identical edge or shipboard sites. No surprise change orders.
Can we keep doing some of the work ourselves?
Yes. Plenty of teams keep day-to-day ownership and use us for upgrades, after-hours coverage, and escalation. We'll scope it around your team.
Git push. Go home.

Bring us the platform that can't go down.

Moving off VMware, running OpenShift at scale, or putting AI to work in your pipeline — a senior engineer will scope it with you. No sales sequence.
