Kubernetes is the de facto Containerized Application Deployment and Management Platform for the Cloud. Kubernetes allows you to scale to planet scale, get the maximum utilization from your compute resources (while cutting costs) and significantly improve developer productivity (this is not an all-inclusive description).
We help organizations transform and/or migrate their applications and workloads to Kubernetes (On-premise Datacenters, Public Cloud and Hybrid Clusters) with cutting-edge DevOps Tooling.

We follow an Agile process from start to finish - working with your Organization's key stakeholders to ensure that the migration meets your requirements and to also ensure a continuous knowledge transfer from our Engineers to yours.
Step 01
Discussion
Initial discussion covering key aspects, challenges and requirements of the Migration at a high-level.
A tentative date is set for an in-depth technical assessment.
Step 02
Assessment
A Workshop (or a series of Workshops depending on the magnitude of the project) is conducted at your premises by our Architects and Engineers.
The goal at this stage is for us to develop a comprehensive understanding of your current IT infrastructure and application architecture to ensure a smooth transition in the coming stages.
Step 03
Analysis
We provide you with Advisory and Comparison Reporting (on different Cloud Providers) based on our assessments to ensure that your organization has a comprehensive data set to make a well-informed decision. We understand that a Migration is a high-cost/high-risk decision and we commit ourselves to helping you make the best decision possible.
Step 04
Strategy Planning
Another workshop (or a series of workshops depending on the magnitude of the project) is conducted to draft your Migration Strategy.
Step 05
Proof of Concept (PoC)
Optional
We develop a Proof-of-Concept Solution as an MVP to test and assert the Migration Strategy.
Step 06
Migration
The Migration is carried out iteratively - we lift one section of your infrastructure to the Cloud, set up state-of-the-art CI/CD automation and monitoring tools - deploy your production workloads and run them in parallel with your existing applications.
Once all tests pass and we're confident that the systems are stable, we start routing your production traffic to the Cloud in a controlled manner - ready to be rolled-back in a moment's notice (we always prepare for the worst) - because we know every second is valuable to your business.
Every change made during the migration is closely monitored and tracked to ensure that you and your systems experience a smooth migration to the Cloud.
Step 07
Post-Migration Management & Processes
Ensuring a successful and complete handoff through training and knowledge transfer sessions.
