01 / The problem

The Platform Engineering Integration Tax

Platform teams spend 6–12 months integrating Kubernetes, observability, security, networking, and AI projects from the CNCF landscape, then need 8–15 specialists costing €1M–€2M annually just to keep it running.

  • 6–12

    Months to Production

    Evaluation paralysis, integration hell, trial and error

  • €1.8M

    Annual Ops Cost

    8–15 specialist engineers just to keep platforms running

  • €1M+

    Hidden Opportunity

    Your best engineers fight infrastructure instead of building products
