Containers & Kubernetes

From application to platform — containers done right and clusters built from the operating system up.

What we engineer

Containers succeed on the discipline underneath them.

AASHU brings the Linux-first perspective to platform engineering: rootless containers as systemd services, clusters whose nodes are hardened before the first pod schedules, and operations designed for the team that inherits them.

Key capabilities

What this capability covers.

Focused engineering with clear technical outcomes, documented implementation, and a path for the operating team to own the result.

01

Containerization

Applications moved into containers correctly — Containerfiles, rootless operation, build pipelines.

02

Podman on RHEL

Rootless containers as systemd services via Quadlet — the supported enterprise pattern.

03

Cluster deployment

Production Kubernetes from the OS up: control plane, CNI, ingress, storage classes.

04

Day-2 operations

Upgrades, scaling, RBAC, backup/restore, and capacity management.

05

Registry & image security

Private registries, image signing, and vulnerability scanning in the build path.

06

Platform monitoring

Prometheus and Grafana with alerting tuned to symptoms, not noise.

Deliverables

What you receive.

Running cluster with documented architecture
Hardened node and platform security baseline
Upgrade and disaster-recovery runbooks, rehearsed
Image pipeline with signing and scan gates
Monitoring stack with tuned alert rules
Operations handoff and team enablement
Engineering approach

From environment understanding to operational ownership.

Every engagement is scoped to the actual environment. The implementation changes by capability, but the operating discipline remains consistent.

01

Assess the environment

Map the current state, dependencies, constraints, risk, and operational ownership before making changes.

02

Engineer the implementation

Build the technical path with repeatable configuration, validation, and rollback appropriate to the scope.

03

Leave an operating model

Document the baseline, runbooks, lifecycle tasks, and handoff so the capability remains supportable.
