Kubernetes & Container Support FAQs

Common questions about Kubernetes & Container consulting, support, and migrations.

Our Kubernetes consulting covers cluster architecture, containerization strategy, CI/CD integration, security hardening, and messaging operator deployment. We also provide ongoing Kubernetes support for day-2 operations — monitoring, upgrades, scaling, and incident response — so your team has expert coverage at every stage.

Yes. We assess your existing applications, identify containerization candidates, and create a phased migration plan. We handle everything from Dockerfile creation to Kubernetes deployment — and we'll tell you honestly if something shouldn't be containerized yet.

Absolutely — and this is a specialty. The RabbitMQ Cluster Operator and Strimzi Kafka Operator have nuances around persistent storage, anti-affinity, pod disruption budgets, and rolling upgrades that require messaging expertise alongside Kubernetes expertise. We bring both.

We work with EKS, GKE, AKS, Rancher, OpenShift (OCP, ARO, ROSA), and self-managed clusters on vSphere or bare metal. We also support managed distributions like Bottlerocket and Flatcar Container Linux.

Yes — OpenShift is a core specialty. We handle OCP on-premises installation, ARO and ROSA provisioning, OpenShift Pipelines (Tekton), GitOps with ArgoCD, RBAC and Security Context Constraints, and Operator Lifecycle Manager configuration. We also support migrations from vanilla Kubernetes to OpenShift.

Yes. Right-sizing workloads, implementing Vertical Pod Autoscaler, configuring Cluster Autoscaler, and using Spot/Preemptible instances are all areas where we commonly find 30–60% cost reductions for clients.

Yes. We work with EKS (AWS), GKE (Google Cloud), AKS (Azure), and self-managed clusters on vSphere or bare metal. We are cloud-agnostic and help you design multi-cloud architectures that avoid platform lock-in.

We implement network policies, Pod Security Standards (restricted profile), image signing with Cosign, admission controllers (Kyverno or OPA/Gatekeeper), RBAC scoping to least privilege, and secret management via Vault or AWS Secrets Manager.
