Red Hat – OpenShift Container Platform

Red Hat OpenShift is an enterprise grade Kubernetes container platform. It covers automated management of hybrid- and multi cloud-solutions. In addition, there are a large number of services and features for automation that can be added and activated.

Red Hat – Agile Integration

The ability to deliver applications and functionality with as short lead times as possible is becoming increasingly important in our digital world. To reach such efficiencies, you need an infrastructure solution that allows you to work with an agile approach, adapting to your needs with flexibility. In the integration context, Red Hat defines this as Agile Integration. It is based on the Red Hat Fuse, Red Hat 3Scale API Management and AMQ/AMQ Streams platforms.

 

Red Hat technology services at Epical

Epical is a Red Hat partner, and we work with the Red Hat OpenShift container platform as well as the integration solution Red Hat Agile Integration portfolio. Our ambition is to be the main supplier of these solutions for our customers, based on these three building blocks:

• Red Hat OpenShift container-platform; an enterprise grade Kubernetes platform making your applications flexible and scalable.
• The possibility to create bespoke customer solutions, through Epical's expertise in cloud-based development methods and technologies.
• Agile integration solutions based on Red Hat Fuse, 3Scale, AMQ and AMQ Streams.

Advisory services

Our advisory services are comprised of our governance services and our popular Baseline workshops. They enable you to create business solutions based on Red Hat technology as a container platform, and demonstrates how your business can benefit from a hybrid cloud solution, or how you can work with Red Hat Agile Integration.

We have developed a number of tried and tested best practice project templates with which we deliver parts of, or the entire Baseline Integration Toolbox, in combination with an infrastructure and integration platform. The common denominator for all our project offerings is that you will know exactly what you get in terms of scope, time, and price through our fixed price model.

 

Architect and development services

Our architect and development services are the perfect combination with our advisory services, making it easy to design and implement the decisions you make to develop your business. We can offer a regular consultancy delivery, as well as complete capability solutions with entire development teams where a mix of suitable resources are included, e.g. architects, developers, technicians and test specialists including specialists outside of the container/hybrid cloud/integration area.

We collaborate as close as possible with your business or project organization, all the way to your choice of methodology – from classic waterfall to agile methods. Our conviction is that a team- and capability delivery is the perfect delivery model for a close collaboration over time where efficiency and communication evolve and are refined to perfection. You will get the exact amount of resources you need, at the right time, with the right competency mix and profiles.

We can also offer integration development with a predefined SLA and price. That way, you don’t have to manage resources and lead the day-to-day work for a consultant or developer, making it easier to plan and budget for actual costs for the integration solution.

 

Baseline start-kit

With our Baseline start-kits, we help you in getting started with your Red Hat OpenShift container platform, including integration functionality and a cloud-based development environment – at a fixed price and timeframe. It is a smooth way of getting your projects started whilst at the same time securing that the platform is installed correctly, including training in its use and best practices.

 

Runtime – maintenance and operations services

Our standalone operations services fit well together with a preceding implementation project. Our standard service is based on many years of experience and best practice developed in collaboration together with our customers. The core consists of support, monitoring and platform operations, API management and integration solutions. Epical has considerable experience from delivering support and offers support for all products in the Red Hat container/hybrid cloud/integration portfolio.

We also offer a streamlined service which suits well if you prefer to run the platform operation in-house – we will then be able to support according to established SLAs with our experienced specialists, should problems arise.
