Containers
Run portable, scalable applications that heal themselves
Containers let your applications run the same way everywhere and scale on demand. Indivar helps you containerise with Docker and orchestrate with Kubernetes — without the operational headaches.
Applications that run perfectly in development but break in production, scaling that means provisioning servers by hand, and outages that need someone awake to fix them — these are symptoms of infrastructure that can't keep up with modern software.
Docker packages applications with everything they need so they behave consistently across every environment. Kubernetes then runs those containers at scale — handling scheduling, scaling, self-healing and rollouts automatically. Used well, the two are powerful; used carelessly, they add complexity. Indivar helps you adopt them in a way that genuinely fits your applications and team.
What containers are meant to fix
Capabilities
Application containerisation
Package your applications and dependencies into Docker containers so they run consistently from a developer's laptop to production.
Kubernetes orchestration
Deploy and operate Kubernetes to handle scheduling, auto-scaling, service discovery, load balancing and self-healing for your workloads.
Cluster setup and configuration
Stand up and configure clusters — managed or self-hosted — with sensible networking, storage and resource settings for your needs.
CI/CD for containers
Integrate container builds and deployments into your pipelines so updates roll out automatically and safely, with rollback when needed.
Migration and modernisation
Move existing applications onto containers and Kubernetes in a planned, low-risk way rather than a risky big-bang.
Security and reliability
Apply container and cluster hardening, resource limits, health checks and monitoring so workloads stay secure and stable.
Our approach
Assess workloads
We review your applications and infrastructure to identify which workloads benefit most from containers and how to approach them.
Design the platform
We plan the container and Kubernetes setup — cluster topology, networking, storage and pipelines — to fit your scale and team.
Containerise and deploy
We containerise applications, configure the cluster and wire up automated deployments in a controlled rollout.
Harden and hand over
We add monitoring, security and self-healing, then enable your team to operate the platform confidently.
What you get out of it
Common questions
Do we need Kubernetes, or is Docker enough?
It depends on scale and complexity. Smaller or simpler workloads may not need full Kubernetes orchestration. We recommend the right level for your situation rather than adding complexity for its own sake.
Can you containerise our existing applications?
In most cases, yes. We assess each application's suitability and migrate it in a planned, incremental way to keep risk low.
Will this work with our cloud or on-premises setup?
Yes. Containers and Kubernetes run on the major clouds and on-premises. We design the platform to fit where you run today and where you're heading.

A good cloud migration is planned, not improvised. Indivar assesses your estate, builds the roadmap and moves your workloads to AWS or Azure with security and cost control built in from the start.
