Storage
We design, build and operate block, file and object storage on commodity hardware: highly available, multi-tenant and entirely as code. We have run Ceph in production since 2016.
Cloud infrastructure - Made in Germany
Your partner for infrastructure that cannot fail.
We design, build and operate highly available storage, Kubernetes and virtualization platforms. In your data center or your cloud, open, automated and with know-how that stays with you.
Services
Expertise for the critical layers of your IT.
Storage, cloud native and virtualization: three equal areas of expertise that work hand in hand. We combine architecture, build-out and operations so your platform works well beyond day one.
Cloud Native
We build Kubernetes platforms on bare metal and in the cloud: hardened, with modern networking, GitOps delivery and a supply chain you can trust. Our engineers are certified by the Linux Foundation as CKA, CKAD and CKS.
Virtualization
We design and operate virtualization platforms on open technology: KVM as the hypervisor, Ceph as storage and, where it fits, VMs and containers on one control plane with KubeVirt.
Why ServerTec
How engineers work who take responsibility.
A partner, not a vendor
We work in your team, with your people and towards your goals. From the first assessment into operations.
Everything as code
Servers, clusters and configuration are created reproducibly from code. Your environment can be rebuilt at any time.
Open and vendor-neutral
Ceph, Kubernetes, KVM and S3 instead of proprietary interfaces. Your data and workloads stay portable.
Practised recovery
A backup only counts once the restore has been practised. We document and test restore paths.
Security by design
Separated networks, tenant isolation, hardened systems and an auditable supply chain from the start.
Measure, don't assume
Sizing, tuning and acceptance follow measurements under real load, not data sheets.
Consulting
From assessment to operations.
Architecture review, platform build or operations support: you work directly with the engineers who deliver your project.
Assess
Clarity before you invest.
Build
Platforms from requirements to acceptance.
