Cloud operations, without the noise
Ship on modern infrastructure. Keep it boring.
We run Kubernetes and cloud on our own infrastructure in Germany — with clear SLAs and an operations team you reach directly. You use the platform without building and staffing one.

// what cloud ops actually feels like
Why b'nerd
The platform and the people who run it
Not a hyperscaler with no one to call, not a faceless managed host with no depth. You get both: the platform and the people who run it.
Our own cloud in Germany, not a reseller
Our own OpenStack cloud in the EN50600- and ISO-27001-certified de-muc1 data center (Munich). Your data stays in Germany — no US cloud.

You talk to the operations team
A direct line to the people who run your systems — no ticket funnel. On-call and incident response are part of it, run as one system with no unclear handovers.
On-Call
No lock-in — as code, it stays yours
Regular VM flavors on open source, infrastructure as code, pricing you can follow. No vendor lock-in, no surprise bills.

Fit
Good fit, not a fit
A quick reality check before you go deeper.
- You need reliable operations with clear ownership
- You want Kubernetes and cloud, but without heroics
- You prefer documented, automated changes
- You need pragmatic security defaults
- You want the cheapest hosting, no service included
- You need a full custom platform project from scratch
- You want endless options instead of conventions
- You want to outsource decisions instead of collaborating
Interfaces
Dashboard and TUI
Use the dashboard for day-to-day operations or the TUI for fast workflows in the terminal — both backed by the same platform APIs.
How we work
Engineering-first operations
A lean, repeatable delivery model — you always know who runs what and who's on call when it breaks.
Plan with you
We start with constraints, goals, and a realistic migration path — no slideware projects.
Build as code
Infrastructure and workflows are versioned, reviewed, and reproducible.
Operate transparently
Monitoring, incident handling, and change communication are part of the service, not an afterthought.

Technology
A proven stack
Established tools and battle-tested patterns, not bespoke builds — maintainable, auditable, and lock-in-free.
Kubernetes
Managed clusters, app deployments, and platform automation for day‑2 operations.
CI/CD
Repeatable pipelines, secure defaults, and fast feedback loops for teams.
Observability
Metrics, logs, and traces — with actionable alerting and clear ownership.
Security
Hardened baselines, least privilege, and sensible guardrails without blocking delivery.
Private platform APIs
Our platform APIs are private by default. Connect via our gateway using the b'nerd CLI (bnerd up), then access the APIs from your environment.
