Consulting

First understand what runs. Then decide who operates it.

Containerisation, evaluating Kubernetes, migration, operating models. Consulting that ends with something usable rather than a slide deck.

Typical length: 2–8 weeks; From taking stock to a basis you can actually decide on.
Outcome: Something running; A pilot, an operating model, or both. Nothing that exists only in a slide.
Afterwards: Your call; You operate it, we operate it, or you take the result and go elsewhere with it.

Working together

How an engagement runs

Consulting that creates dependency is bad consulting. That is why handover is part of the work, not an afterthought.

How an engagement runs	Yours	Ours
Starting point	You bring the problem and the context.	We bring experience from comparable environments.
Taking stock	You give us sight of what actually runs.	We write it down so it stays readable without us.
Decisions	You decide.	We put the options side by side, with costs and risks attached.
The result	Yours, including if you continue elsewhere afterwards.	We hand over documentation, charts and runbooks.

Topics

Most engagements are a combination of two or three of these.

Containerising existing applications
Packaging an application that grew over years so it starts reproducibly, including the awkward parts.
Evaluating Kubernetes before adopting it
A real workload as a pilot, instead of a debate in a steering committee.
Operating model and role clarity
Who does what when something fails. Written down, so it still holds during holidays.
Migration to gh0stcloud
Bringing existing applications and their data across, with a way back.
Onboarding your team
So your people can operate the platform without asking us.
Backup and recovery, tested
Not whether backups run, but whether restoring actually works when it matters.

Sequence

First call
Free, twenty to thirty minutes, no obligation.
Taking stock
We look at what actually runs, not at what is documented.
Build or assess
Depending on what is needed: a pilot, a basis for a decision, or both.
Handover
Documentation that still holds once we are no longer involved.

The first conversation costs nothing and often ends with a useful answer already.
