Services
Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure services
acks.io offers three kinds of engagement. Assess: fixed-scope audits of Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure. Fix: projects that set up Kubernetes and migrate services onto it, implement hardening, and build cloud platforms and delivery pipelines. Operate: ongoing platform ownership as a fractional platform engineering team, managed cloud, or 24/7 on-call.
Most teams start with an audit, fix the highest-risk findings, and then decide whether they want us to keep running the platform. You can also start at any step.
Assess
Fixed-scope audits with a written report and a prioritised remediation plan.
- Kubernetes Security AuditRBAC, workloads, network policies, supply chain and cluster configuration, reviewed against public hardening benchmarks.Fixed scope
- Kubernetes Cost OptimizationRequests, limits, node pools and autoscaling — where your cluster spend goes and how to reduce it safely.Fixed scope + optional implementation
- Cloud Infrastructure AuditSecurity, architecture, reliability and cost review of your AWS, Google Cloud or Azure environment.Fixed scope
Fix
Projects that build and change things — Kubernetes setups and migrations, hardening, cloud platforms and delivery.
- Kubernetes Setup & MigrationProduction-ready clusters on EKS, GKE, AKS or on-prem, and migrating your services onto them from VMs, PaaS or an older cluster.Project
- Infrastructure HardeningWe implement the fixes: identity, network isolation, encryption, policy guardrails and secure defaults.Project
- Cloud Architecture & MigrationsCloud platform builds, landing zones, cloud and region migrations, and finishing migrations that stalled.Project
- CI/CD, IaC & GitOpsTerraform, delivery pipelines and GitOps workflows your team can own.Project
Operate
Ongoing ownership of your platform, as an extension of your engineering team.
- Fractional Platform EngineeringSenior platform engineers embedded in your team, owning the infrastructure roadmap part-time.Ongoing
- Managed Cloud & KubernetesWe run your cloud and Kubernetes day to day: upgrades, patching, monitoring, incidents and cost control.Ongoing
- 24/7 On-CallSenior engineers on your pager with defined response targets, runbooks and post-incident reviews.Ongoing add-on
Choosing
Not sure where to start?
- You need an independent answer about security, cost or reliability: start with an audit. You get a report you can act on with or without us.
- You are moving to Kubernetes or need a new production cluster: Kubernetes Setup & Migration.
- You already know what is wrong and need the hands to fix it: an Infrastructure Hardening or platform project.
- You need someone to own the platform over time: Fractional Platform Engineering or Managed Cloud.
Talk to an engineer about your infrastructure
A 30-minute call with a senior engineer, not a sales rep. We ask about your setup and what is worrying you, and tell you honestly whether we can help.
