Container Orchestration & Platform Engineering

About Our Kubernetes Practice

Kubernetes has become the standard platform for running containerised workloads at scale. Sort Tree's platform engineers help organisations design, build, and operate Kubernetes clusters that are secure, observable, and developer-friendly. We work across managed Kubernetes services (EKS, GKE, AKS) and self-managed clusters, providing expertise in cluster architecture, security hardening, network policy design, GitOps tooling, observability stacks, and developer platform engineering.

Our Capabilities

  • Kubernetes cluster design and deployment (EKS, GKE, AKS, self-managed)

Challenge
Rapid team growth and manual deployment processes were causing deployment failures and slowing feature delivery. The team needed a self-service developer platform to scale from 20 to 100 engineers.
Our Approach
Sort Tree designed an EKS-based internal developer platform with GitOps workflows, automated environment provisioning, and a standardised service catalogue — enabling teams to deploy independently without platform team involvement.
Outcome
Deployment failure rate dropped to near zero. New environments provisioned in under 5 minutes. Engineering teams fully self-sufficient within 3 months.

Key Results

  • Deployment failure rate reduced by 97%
  • New environment provisioning reduced from 2 days to 5 minutes
  • Platform onboarded 80 additional engineers in 3 months
  • Zero unplanned downtime in the 6 months following launch
