We Believe in Sovereign Platforms & Mastered Destiny
We are the engineering creators and core maintainers of Kowabunga. We believe in self-hosted, self-maintained, highly profitable platform blueprints. We believe in people and in-sourced skills—because long-term success only comes when you master your own technological destiny.
Vendor Neutral
No commercial affiliations, no software vendor kickbacks. Unbiased recommendations strictly serving your profitability.
Relentless Execution
Small team of senior principal engineers. We dive straight into the code, architecture, and Linux kernel to get things done.
Cost Repatriation
Proven track record moving workloads from hyperscaler bill shock to cost-effective, self-maintained private infrastructure.
Open Source Roots
Stewardship of patent-free software as a public legacy. Transparent code, mutual trust, and zero proprietary lock-in.
Professional Services & Deep Tech Expertise
noBS! provides battle-tested professional services across architecture, infrastructure, scaling, and compliance. Direct access to senior principals. Zero fluff.
Product & Architecture Auditing
Solution assessment and architecture reverse-engineering. Finding design holes and structural bottlenecks to help you understand why you can't scale up. From forensics analysis to optimization, we help you design sustaining, future-proof, vendor-neutral software.
Infrastructure Design & Repatriation
We've designed and maintained world-class network, storage, and computing infrastructures sustaining millions of users. Whether moving to cloud, hybrid setups, or Cloud Repatriation back to mastered, cost-effective infrastructure, we're here to help.
Automate all the Things !
Because human mistakes will always prevail, and repetitive manual intervention is a source of toil and revenue loss, we bring expertise on IaC and Configuration-as-Code with Terraform, Ansible and Kubernetes/Helm, paired with full LGTM or Victoria observability and team autonomy training.
To Infinity and Beyond: Scale & FinOps
Scaling your tech stack from MVP to a fruitful business isn't easy. Need financial optimization advice? Putting databases and storage at scale? Geographically distributed, sharded, region-bounded, GDPR-compliant storage from several TBs to PBs? We're here to help.
Security & Compliance (Former CISO)
From multi-layered security audits and threat analysis to ISO-27001, ISO-27017, ISO-27018 and HIPAA/HDS certifications and compliance, our former CISO expertise will help you rigorously assess and protect your ISMS risks.
Open Source Advocates
We use, live by, contribute to, and maintain Open Source software. We believe in patent-free software as a world heritage and legacy, and we will always find more sustainable and economical open solutions to solve your problems.
