Managed Operations
Ongoing cluster care and on-call style support, on a monthly retainer.
Not every team needs a full-time platform hire. We take ongoing ownership of your clusters — upgrades, patching, incident response and capacity planning — under a monthly retainer, with the same accountability you'd expect from an in-house team.
What's included
- Ongoing cluster maintenance and upgrades
- On-call style incident response
- Capacity planning and cost review
- Monthly retainer, no long-term lock-in
- Regular health reports
- Runbooks kept up to date
What you get
Clusters that stay current
Upgrades and patches applied on a schedule, not postponed until they become a project of their own.
Someone who knows your setup
Incidents handled by an engineer who already understands your platform.
Predictable cost
A fixed monthly retainer instead of a full-time hire or ad-hoc emergency rates.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from hiring a platform engineer?
You get senior platform expertise and ongoing ownership of your clusters for a fraction of a full-time salary, without the cost and lead time of recruiting.
Is there a long-term contract?
No. Retainers are monthly, with no long-term lock-in.
Can we start with a one-off project and move to a retainer later?
Yes. Many engagements start with a build or audit project and move to managed operations once the platform is in place.
