04

CI/CD Pipeline Engineering

We design and build automated delivery pipelines that take code from a developer's branch to production in minutes — not days. Every pipeline includes automated unit/integration tests, SAST/DAST security scans, Docker image build & push, Helm rollout to staging and production clusters, and Slack/PagerDuty deployment notifications. We engineer for canary and blue-green deployment strategies, giving teams instant rollback capability within 60 seconds of a failed health check.

Infrastructure as Code

Environment parity and repeatability using Terraform, Ansible, and Pulumi — eliminating configuration drift between dev, staging, and production. Every resource versioned, peer-reviewed, and auditable.

Container Engineering

Kubernetes & Docker: production-hardened

Container orchestration is not just spinning up pods — it's reliability engineering, cost-aware resource management, and zero-downtime delivery at scale.

Kubernetes Capabilities We Deliver

We don't just deploy clusters — we harden them for production with proper resource governance, auto-scaling, and multi-tenancy isolation.

  • Cluster provisioning on EKS, GKE, AKS using Terraform modules
  • Helm chart authoring & Helm Operator GitOps patterns
  • HPA (Horizontal Pod Autoscaler) & VPA (Vertical Pod Autoscaler)
  • Cluster Autoscaler with Spot/Preemptible node pools for cost reduction
  • Istio service mesh — mTLS, traffic splitting, circuit breakers
  • Namespace RBAC, Network Policies, Pod Security Standards
  • Argo CD GitOps continuous delivery with drift detection
  • Karpenter node provisioning for peak-load elasticity
  • Kubernetes cost visibility with KubeCost & OpenCost

Docker Containerisation Standards

  • Multi-stage Dockerfiles reducing image size by 60–80%
  • Distroless and Alpine base images for minimal attack surface
  • Trivy CVE scanning integrated in every CI pipeline run
  • Private registry management: ECR, GCR, ACR, Harbor

How Flexsys Technologies cuts cloud costs during heavy-load projects

Most cloud waste is not in idle resources — it's in over-provisioned compute, unoptimised storage tiers, and architectures that weren't designed with cost as a first-class concern. We fix that systematically.

Avg 40% saving

Right-Sizing & Compute Optimisation

We analyse CloudWatch / Cloud Monitoring utilisation data across 14 days of peak load to identify over-provisioned EC2, GKE, or AKS node families. Switching from m5.4xlarge → m5.2xlarge with HPA achieves the same throughput at half the cost. For spiky batch workloads we migrate to Spot/Preemptible instances with Karpenter — typically reducing compute spend by 35–70%.

Avg 30% saving

Spot & Reserved Instance Strategy

We model your workload predictability and build a purchasing strategy — 1-year or 3-year Reserved Instances / Savings Plans for baseline steady-state capacity, with On-Demand and Spot for burst. For Kubernetes clusters we use Karpenter node pools with mixed instance type policies so the scheduler always picks the cheapest available Spot node that meets pod resource requests.

Avg 25% saving

Storage Tier & Data Transfer Optimisation

Most clients are paying GP2 EBS pricing for cold storage that should be on S3-IA or Glacier. We audit object lifecycle policies, implement S3 Intelligent-Tiering, migrate unattached EBS volumes, and terminate orphaned snapshots. We also geo-locate services to minimise cross-region data transfer — a silent budget killer at high-volume.

Real-time alerts

Real-Time Cost Observability

We deploy Grafana dashboards connected to AWS Cost Explorer / GCP Billing APIs — broken down by team, namespace, and service. Anomaly alerts fire in Slack when a service exceeds its daily budget. Teams see cost per deployment, cost per feature, and cost per transaction — not just a monthly invoice surprise.

Architecture level

Serverless & Event-Driven Offloading

For workloads that are truly asynchronous — image processing, email delivery, ML inference jobs — we migrate from always-on containers to Lambda / Cloud Functions / Cloud Run. A workload running 30 min/day costs a fraction of a 24/7 pod. We identify and migrate these candidates during our initial architecture review.

Policy-driven

Automated Resource Scheduling

Non-production environments (dev, staging, QA) running 24/7 are pure waste. We implement automated start/stop schedules — dev clusters powered off from 8 PM to 8 AM and on weekends. Enforced via Lambda/Cloud Scheduler + OPA policy — saving 60–70% on non-prod cloud spend overnight.

Typical cost reduction breakdown per engagement

Compute Right-sizing & Spot Strategy Up to 40% saved
Storage Tier Optimisation Up to 25% saved
Non-Prod Scheduling & Cleanup Up to 30% saved
Data Transfer & Architecture Refactor Up to 20% saved

Combined savings potential: 30–55% reduction in total cloud spend within the first 90 days.

DevSecOps

Security is not a sprint ticket. It's the pipeline itself.

We embed security controls at every layer of the stack — so vulnerabilities are caught before they reach production, not after.

Secrets Management

HashiCorp Vault with dynamic secret leases. No hardcoded credentials ever.

Policy as Code

Open Policy Agent (OPA) & Kyverno enforcing admission control on every K8s resource.

Image Scanning

Trivy CVE scanning in CI — build fails on CRITICAL severity. No exceptions.

IAM Least Privilege

Pod-level IRSA / Workload Identity. No wildcard IAM roles in production.

Network Policies

Kubernetes Network Policies + Istio mTLS. Zero implicit pod-to-pod trust.

DAST in Pipeline

OWASP ZAP dynamic scan against every staging deploy. CVEs blocked before promotion.

Compliance Auditing

SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS aligned infrastructure. Audit trail in CloudTrail / GCP Audit Logs.

Image Signing

Cosign + Notary — only Flexsys Technologies-signed images are admitted to production clusters.

Technology Stack

Platform-agnostic. Best-tool-for-job.

Common Questions

Cloud & DevOps questions, answered honestly

For a typical 5–10 service application, a Kubernetes migration takes 6–10 weeks: 1 week for cluster provisioning and tooling, 2–3 weeks for containerising each service, 1–2 weeks for pipeline automation, and 1–2 weeks for staging validation. We always pilot with your lowest-risk service first and expand from there.
Absolutely. Our FinOps audit works regardless of your compute model. For EC2/VM-based workloads we focus on right-sizing, Reserved Instances, storage tier cleanup, and non-prod scheduling. These alone typically yield 25–35% savings within 30 days and require zero architecture changes.
Most pipelines we inherit are focused on build and deploy — they lack security scanning, automated rollback, canary promotion logic, and cost guardrails. We add SAST/DAST, image signing, Argo Rollouts for canary, and per-deployment cost tagging so each release gives you measurable delivery quality metrics, not just a green checkmark.
Yes — we offer SLA-backed Cloud SRE retainers covering 24×7 alerting, on-call incident response (PagerDuty), monthly cost reviews, Kubernetes upgrade management, and security patch cadence. Most clients stay on retainer after the initial project.
Yes — this is our preferred model. We integrate with your developers via Jira, Slack, and your existing Git workflows. We act as your senior cloud / DevOps layer, handling platform complexity so your team can focus on product features. We also conduct knowledge transfer sessions and document everything in your Confluence / Notion.
