Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need Kubernetes?
Kubernetes is best when running multiple microservices, needing autoscaling, or requiring self-healing infrastructure. Simpler setups may not need it.
EKS, GKE, or AKS?
EKS for AWS-centric, GKE for best Kubernetes experience, AKS for Azure ecosystem. Our engineers work with all managed Kubernetes services.
Can they implement GitOps?
Yes. Our engineers implement GitOps with ArgoCD or Flux for declarative, Git-driven Kubernetes deployments.
