Review
Kubernetes Platform Review
A technical review of the clusters and platform practices: security, network, deployment, scaling, observability and upkeep.
ReviewScoped individually
Price, length and scope are agreed in writing. We do not guarantee specific outcomes: the findings depend on the information available and on your team's participation.
Who it is for
- Platform and DevOps teams that run Kubernetes clusters.
- Technical leads who want an independent view before expanding.
- Teams migrating applications to Kubernetes.
Problems it addresses
- Clusters grow, but access and network rules are inconsistent.
- Deployments are manual or differ between teams.
- Resource limits and a clear scaling strategy are missing.
- Version upgrades are postponed because they are risky.
What is needed beforehand
- Read-only access to the clusters or an export of the manifests and configuration.
- A description of the deployment process and the tools used.
- Recommended: completed free cloud and DevOps maturity assessments.
Format
- Participants
- The platform team and representatives of development and security.
- Delivery
- Remote or on site; the materials and notes stay with you.
- Length
- A fixed scope agreed in writing beforehand: interviews, a review of documents and configuration, then a written report. Timing depends on the scope and on access.
