Kubernetes Consulting
From first cluster to production-grade platform. Without the usual detours.
What I Do
Kubernetes is powerful, but complexity without expertise leads to expensive mistakes. I help teams build, optimize, and operate clusters that are secure, cost-efficient, and genuinely production-ready. Not just “it runs on Kubernetes” ready, but “we can sleep at night” ready.
Cluster Setup & Architecture
- EKS, AKS, GKE, or bare-metal. I help you choose the right fit
- Network policies, ingress controllers, service mesh evaluation
- Storage classes, CSI drivers, and stateful workload patterns
- RBAC, Pod Security Standards, and admission controllers
Operators & Custom Controllers
- Custom Kubernetes operators for your domain-specific needs
- CRD design and implementation
- Operator lifecycle management with OLM
- Extending Kubernetes without fighting it
Multi-Tenant Architecture
- Namespace isolation strategies and network policies
- Resource quotas, limit ranges, and fair scheduling
- Virtual clusters with vCluster for strong isolation
- Multi-cluster management with fleet-level tooling
Cost Optimization
- Right-sizing with VPA recommendations and load testing
- Spot/preemptible instance strategies with graceful handling
- Cluster autoscaler and Karpenter tuning
- Cost visibility with Kubecost or OpenCost
Who It’s For
- Startups adopting Kubernetes for the first time and wanting to skip the common mistakes
- Growing teams whose clusters have outgrown their initial setup
- Enterprises needing multi-tenant, multi-cluster, or hybrid-cloud Kubernetes
- Anyone whose Kubernetes bill makes them wince every month
How I Work
Every engagement starts with understanding your workloads, team, and goals. Then I design, implement, and document, leaving you with infrastructure your team can actually operate on their own.
