Why choose

Kubernetes & how does it drive real business value?

Businesses need infrastructure that scales, adapts, and supports innovation. Kubernetes makes that possible by powering modern container orchestration so you can

Cut costs with smarter resource use

By automating deployments, resource allocation, and scaling of containerized applications, Kubernetes reduces human error and operational overhead. At Pelotech, we help you avoid common pitfalls like overprovisioning, resulting in significant Kubernetes cost optimization.

Scale applications automatically

Kubernetes enables applications to scale dynamically in response to fluctuating demand—automatically. It ensures your system stays responsive during peak loads, and winds down for efficient resource utilization during lulls.

Keep applications running without interruptions

Its built-in self-healing mechanisms ensure your applications remain available, minimizing downtime and improving overall stability. This reliability translates directly into better customer experiences and stronger business continuity.

Deploy updates faster than ever

Kubernetes is the key enabler of modern CI/CD pipelines. It helps your teams ship faster, test more confidently, and adapt to market changes in real-time, giving you a critical edge in competitive industries.

Run workloads across any environment

Whether you’re running workloads on-premises, in the cloud, or across multiple providers, Kubernetes gives you true portability. Avoid vendor lock-in, embrace hybrid strategies, and retain full control of your infrastructure.

Kubernetes Consultant

Are you in need of a Kubernetes Consultant?

Every Kubernetes journey is unique, but common challenges exist. Pelotech solves them at scale-whether you’re starting optimizing, or advancing.

Getting started with Kubernetes?

Early decisions can shape your entire Kubernetes experience.

Challenges you might face

Choosing between cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP)
Deciding on managed vs. self-managed clusters
Inconsistent, non-repeatable cluster configurations
Ineffective autoscaling setup and management
Limited observability into cluster health
Worry about future technical debt or scaling issues

How we help

We provide targeted Kubernetes coaching and hands-on platform engineering, tailored to your environment. From containerization and GitOps tooling (e.g., ArgoCD) to implementing best-in-class observability and planning for smooth upgrades, we set you up for secure, scalable, and maintainable infrastructure from day one.

Adopting Kubernetes, but want to double-check your setup?

Once you’ve decided to move forward with Kubernetes, it’s crucial to establish a design that won’t limit you later.

Challenges you might face

Implementing RBAC for robust security
Selecting the right networking model (CNI)
Deciding on ingress controller architecture
Choosing between persistent and ephemeral storage
Designing a security-first, future-proof architecture

How we help

With years of experience across diverse industries, we guide you through critical orchestration decisions. We bring proven best practices to ensure your architecture scales, your security is baked in from the start, and your foundational choices set you up for long-term success.

Adopted Kubernetes, but not seeing the expected ROI? 

Fine-tune for cost, speed, and resilience.

Challenges you might face

Rising cloud costs and underused resources
Misconfigured requests/limits are slowing performance
CI/CD bottlenecks are delaying releases
Overprovisioned clusters limit autoscaling efficiency
Inefficient node scaling without tools like Karpenter
Multiple clusters per app create unnecessary cost and complexity

How we help

We fine-tune your environment for cost efficiency, speed, and resilience. We also address poor cluster strategies by consolidating overprovisioned clusters and standardizing configurations. By optimizing autoscaling, refining CI/CD pipelines, and strengthening your security posture, we’ve helped clients cut manual workloads by up to 50%, reduce spend, and accelerate delivery timelines.

Overwhelmed by Kubernetes component choices?

As Kubernetes grows with your business, complexity can creep in.

Challenges you might face

Managing ingress controllers for external access
Choosing the right networking (CNI) and storage (CSI) models
Handling stateful workloads
Managing upgrades and dependencies

How we help

We bring clarity to complex decisions, recommending exactly the right networking, storage, and orchestration solutions for your needs. From ingress to VM integration, we ensure your applications deploy seamlessly and scale with long-term resilience.

Happy with Kubernetes, but ready to automate? 

Once you’ve mastered the fundamentals, use Kubernetes Operators to manage operations for you.

Challenges you might face

Deploying the right operators for workloads (KubeVirt, Crossplane, Cloud Native Postgres (CNPG))
Ensuring persistent storage for complex applications
Automating complex application lifecycle tasks
Integrating workload optimization tools like SBOM generation or Goldilocks
Designing and testing disaster recovery strategies

How we help

We help you identify the best Kubernetes Operators for your workloads, implement them safely, and integrate supporting tools for resilience, compliance, and efficiency. By streamlining persistent storage, automating lifecycle management, and strengthening disaster recovery, we enable you to shift more operational toil to Kubernetes itself—so you can focus on delivering value faster.

FAQs

About Kubernetes Consulting Services

Expert guidance to design, optimize, and scale Kubernetes environments that boost efficiency, cut costs, and accelerate business outcomes.

What are the key benefits of engaging Kubernetes consulting services?

Expert guidance for complex deployments, accelerated time-to-market, significant cost optimization, enhanced security, improved resource utilization, and fostering internal team capabilities.

Why are companies leaving Kubernetes?

The reality is that companies aren’t moving away from Kubernetes, they’re refining how they use it. Early implementations sometimes struggled due to complexity or limited in-house expertise. Pelotech brings deep Kubernetes experience, practical knowledge, and a focused consulting approach to help you implement and manage Kubernetes effectively from the start.

What is Pelotech's typical process for Kubernetes consulting?

We begin every project with a thorough discovery phase to understand your goals, pain points, and architecture. From there, we create a customized roadmap and move into incremental implementation, working side-by-side with your team.Our engagements are collaborative, outcome driven, and continuously optimized for success, ensuring you see results quickly.

Do you offer help with Cloud Native Day 2 operations?

Absolutely. Our services extend far beyond initial deployment. We provide comprehensive support for Kubernetes optimization, monitoring, security hardening, vulnerability scanning, and feature upgrades to ensure your Day 2 operations are efficient, secure, and performant.

How do Pelotech's Kubernetes consulting services differ from standard managed Kubernetes services?

Managed services (like EKS, AKS, or GKE) handle infrastructure, but they don’t design your architecture or tailor it to your goals. Pelotech fills that gap with strategic consulting, advanced Kubernetes engineering, performance optimization, and team enablement. We  partner with you to design and optimize custom solutions, even if you use a managed platform.

Is EKS a managed service, and can Pelotech assist with it?

Yes, Amazon EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) is a fully managed Kubernetes service. Pelotech has extensive experience working with EKS and other managed Kubernetes offerings, helping clients configure, secure, and optimize workloads running on them. We help you extract the full value of managed Kubernetes while customizing the parts that matter.

How does Pelotech ensure Kubernetes security and compliance?

Security is baked into every layer of our process. We implement:

  • Kubernetes vulnerability scanning

  • Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) best practices

  • Secure image registry configurations

  • Network segmentation and policy enforcement

  • Compliance alignment with industry security standards.

What kind of Kubernetes optimization can I expect in terms of cost and performance?

Our optimization strategies typically lead to significant cost reductions, substantial performance improvements, and faster deployment times. We achieve this through:

  • Rightsizing and autoscaling clusters

  • Eliminating underutilized resources

  • Fine-tuning request/limits and workload distribution

  • Streamlining CI/CD pipelines for faster, more reliable delivery
