We’re excited to share that Crossvale is now part of Options Technology.
This marks the next chapter for our clients bringing expanded capabilities across infrastructure, private cloud and AI. Follow Options Technology for future updates and insights
Move beyond the hype. We turn complex container ecosystems into stable, scalable Internal Developer Platforms.
The Pain
Every team builds their own distinct pipeline. You have clusters on AWS, Azure, and on-premise, but no central way to manage them.
The Cost
It is impossible to enforce security policies or upgrades across a fragmented fleet.
The Pain
You cannot audit ephemeral containers with legacy security tools. Auditors demand answers about runtime security that your current dashboard can’t provide.
The Cost
You are technically “cloud-native,” but you are failing to meet enterprise compliance standards.
The Pain
Without automated autoscaling and proper resource quotas, developers over-provision everything “just to be safe.”
The Cost
Cloud bills grow exponentially faster than your actual user traffic.
We implement "Policy as Code" so security is baked into the build pipeline, not checked at the gate.
We build pre-approved templates that let developers ship secure code in minutes, not days.
Stop jumping between tools. We provide a "Single Pane of Glass" for logging, metrics, and traces across all your environments.
For decades, Virtual Machines (VMs) were the standard. But in a cloud-native world, the “VMware Tax” is holding you back.
Moving to containers isn’t just a technical upgrade; it’s a financial necessity.

You don’t have to rewrite everything overnight. With Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, we can migrate your existing VMs to run side-by-side with containers on the same platform, unifying your operations and eliminating legacy hypervisor costs.
Open-source Kubernetes is free to download, but expensive to operate. Many organizations underestimate the sheer complexity of assembling a production-grade platform from scratch.
The Reality
You are given the engine, but you have to build the car.
The Burden
Your team must manually integrate and maintain the networking, storage, monitoring, logging, security scanning, and CI/CD tools.
The Risk
There is no support number to call when production breaks. Your internal team owns 100% of the technical debt.
Best For
Tech giants with massive engineering teams (Netflix, Google).
The Reality
A complete, turnkey application platform.
The Burden
“Batteries included.” It comes pre-integrated with hardened security, automated over-the-air updates, developer dashboards, and certified storage/networking.
The Risk
Your team stops building the platform and starts using it to ship applications.
Best For
Enterprises that need security, compliance, and speed.

In just 8 weeks, they transformed our OpenShift environment and our team’s capabilities. A year later, we’re still running as securely as day one, and deploying twice as fast.
DevOps is a culture; Platform Engineering is the product. We build the internal product (The Platform) that your developers use to self-service infrastructure.
It depends on your team’s size. Vanilla K8s is “free” but expensive to maintain (DIY). OpenShift provides an enterprise wrapper that reduces operational overhead… (Link to OpenShift Page).
We use patterns like the “Strangler Fig” to slowly decouple monoliths, or use OpenShift Virtualization to run VMs side-by-side with containers.
“Lift and Shift” is faster but often carries technical debt and high cloud costs. We recommend a “Strangler Fig” pattern: moving high-value functionality to microservices gradually while keeping the core stable. We help you assess which apps justify a rewrite and which should just be re-platformed.
Kubernetes efficiency relies on FinOps. Without proper resource quotas, limits, and autoscaling policies, developers tend to over-provision. We implement automated cost-control governance to ensure you only pay for the compute you actually use.
Yes. With tools like Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, you can run VMs side-by-side with containers on the same platform. This allows you to modernize your infrastructure and reduce VMware licensing costs without rewriting every application immediately.
Security must be “shifted left.” We implement DevSecOps pipelines that scan code and images for vulnerabilities before deployment. We also use policy engines (like OPA or Kyverno) to enforce runtime security standards across AWS, Azure, and on-premise clusters simultaneously.
Building an internal platform team is expensive and talent is scarce. Many clients choose a hybrid model: your internal team focuses on application deployment, while Crossvale’s PodOps™ service handles the low-level infrastructure, upgrades, and 24/7 reliability.
Feel like we’d be a good fit? Book a time with our team and take the first step toward your transformation.
Our fears about integrating legacy systems with containers vanished when we saw how seamlessly the solution worked. What used to take three teams to manage now requires just one, and our deployment time dropped from weeks to days.
