Professional Services

Custom engagements for enterprise OSS challenges that don't fit a subscription.

Fixed-scope. Fixed-fee. Scoped to your environment — not a template sold to a hundred other companies.

What we deliver

Every engagement is defined up front with clear deliverables, timelines, and acceptance criteria.

Migration Services

Structured migration paths from commercial platforms to OSS equivalents. We handle Tanzu → Kubernetes, Confluent → Apache Kafka, Oracle → PostgreSQL, and Spring Commercial → OSS Spring — with runbooks, cutover plans, and rollback procedures.

Architectural Assessments

Independent review of your OSS topology. We evaluate high-availability design, performance bottlenecks, node sizing, network architecture, and multi-cluster strategies — and deliver a prioritized findings report.

Implementation Services

Greenfield OSS platform setup done right. Cluster provisioning, operator installation, storage class configuration, RBAC scaffolding, and integration with your existing CI/CD and secrets management.

PoC & Pilot Programs

30- to 60-day bounded pilots that de-risk a platform decision before you commit. We define success criteria up front, run the pilot alongside your team, and deliver a go/no-go recommendation with evidence.

Custom Integrations

Connecting OSS platforms to your enterprise toolchain — SIEM, ITSM, secrets managers, identity providers, observability stacks, and internal developer portals. Delivered as auditable code, not black-box scripts.

Security Hardening

Configuration audits against CIS benchmarks, network policy design, mTLS configuration, RBAC tightening, and access-control reviews. Delivered with evidence artifacts ready for your compliance team.

How it works

From first call to sign-off

A repeatable process that keeps scope tight and delivers results without dragging into open-ended consulting.

01

Scope

A 45-minute discovery call to understand your environment, constraints, and goals. We define deliverables, timeline, and a fixed fee — no hourly billing surprises.

02

Design

Our engineers produce a detailed engagement plan: architecture diagrams, migration runbooks, or pilot criteria — reviewed and signed off before any work begins.

03

Execute

We work alongside your team in your environment. Weekly check-ins, async updates in your communication channel, and documented progress at every milestone.

04

Validate

Structured acceptance testing against the agreed success criteria. We don't close the engagement until the deliverables pass and your team can operate them independently.

Fixed fee

No hourly billing. Scope and price are agreed before we start. You know exactly what you're getting and what it costs.

Your environment

We work inside your cluster, your VPC, your toolchain. No managed platform lock-in. Everything we deliver is yours.

OSS-only output

We don't upsell proprietary tooling. Every recommendation and deliverable is based on open source with a path you can maintain independently.

Ready to scope your engagement?

The scoping call is free and takes 45 minutes. We leave it with a clear picture of deliverables, timeline, and fee — no obligation to proceed.
