Kubernetes: setup, autoscaling, right-sizing and migration

Traffic grows. So does the cloud bill, and the outages.

Your product is growing and the infrastructure is not keeping up. Nodes are oversized, the bill climbs every month, and the cluster still goes down at peak. We set up autoscaling Kubernetes on your cloud, size it to what you actually use, and hand it over with a runbook.

from €2,500 · 3 weeks

Starting price, excluding VAT. Fixed before work starts.

What you get

  • A written review of your current setup and costs in week one.
  • Autoscaling Kubernetes on your cloud: AWS, Azure, GCP or Hetzner.
  • Up to five services migrated, in staging and production.
  • Right-sizing of nodes, requests and limits against real usage.
  • Monitoring and alerts that page the right person.
  • Deploys from your existing pipeline into the new cluster.
  • A runbook and a handover session with your team.

Not included

  • Changes to your application code.
  • More than five services. We quote them separately.
  • Running the cluster afterwards. That is DevOps as a Service.
  • Night and weekend on-call.

From brief to handover

  1. Brief

    Fifteen minutes with the engineer who will do the work, then read access to your cloud account. Within 48 hours you have a fixed price, a fixed date and what done means.

  2. Build

    Week one: the review and the cluster. Weeks two and three: your services move over, staging first. A working demo every Friday.

  3. Handover

    Runbook, alerts, a recorded walkthrough and every login. Your team runs it from the agreed date, or we stay on monthly.

Track record

Questions

What does the from-price cover?
One cluster, up to five services, staging and production, on one cloud. Anything beyond that is quoted within 48 hours of the first call.
Which clouds do you work on?
AWS, Azure, GCP and Hetzner. Managed Kubernetes where the cloud offers it, otherwise a cluster we build and document.
Do we have to change our application?
No. Your services run as containers. If they are not containerised yet we tell you in the review and quote that step separately.
Will the bill really go down?
Usually, because autoscaling and right-sizing stop you paying for idle capacity. We put the expected saving in writing after the week-one review. We do not promise a number before we have seen your usage.
How do we pay?
Half when you sign, half when it runs in production as agreed. Invoiced by Zer0Paper OÜ in your region's currency.
What happens after the three weeks?
You own the cluster, the code and the docs. Your team runs it, or you keep us on as DevOps as a Service and cancel any time.
