ForgeOne

Linux, open-source and platform infrastructure for organizations

ForgeOne designs, builds and operates Linux, open-source and platform infrastructure: Kubernetes, OpenShift, Ansible, GitOps, Keycloak and Enterprise Linux. When know-how or capacity is missing short term, we support with clearly scoped technical responsibility.

Where ForgeOne helps

Assessment, architecture, delivery, operations

Linux & Infrastructure

Servers, lifecycle, hardening, operations.

Platform Engineering

Kubernetes, automation, GitOps, project reinforcement.

Security & Identity

Baselines, access, reviews.

Managed Operations

Monitoring, updates, support, interim operations.

When infrastructure becomes complex

Many IT landscapes grow over years: Linux systems, virtualization, Kubernetes, backup, monitoring, identity, networks and automation depend on each other.

ForgeOne turns these building blocks into reliable architecture, reduces manual operational risk and creates clear responsibilities between internal teams, partners and managed services.

The first step is not a product catalog, but a shared understanding: where risks emerge, which platform roles are needed and which operating model fits the organization.

If know-how or capacity is missing short term, ForgeOne can support existing teams on a project basis, work through technical bottlenecks and hand over knowledge clearly.

Find the right entry point

IT solutions show what is built. Services show how ForgeOne supports delivery and operations. Products show which platforms we work with.

Recommended

Collaboration & grommunio

Email, groupware, collaboration, migration, licensing and operations as a sovereign platform.

Platform Engineering & Kubernetes

Kubernetes, OpenShift, OKD, Rancher, GitOps and operating models for modern applications. Also available as short-term project reinforcement when missing platform engineers put deadlines at risk.

Enterprise Linux & Infrastructure

Linux servers, lifecycle, virtualization, storage, networking, hardening and operations.

Security Assessments

Security reviews, configuration checks, Kubernetes security, hardening and remediation.

Identity & SSO

Keycloak, FreeIPA, Red Hat IdM, role models and controlled access concepts.

Managed Operations

Monitoring, updates, backup, support and clear responsibilities in ongoing operations.

Short-Term Technical Support

Temporary technical support for Linux, Kubernetes, automation and platform operations when know-how or capacity is missing short term.

From assessment to operations

  1. Current step
    Step 1

    Assessment

    Understand the current situation, dependencies and risks.

  2. Step 2

    Architecture

    Define target architecture, security, platform roles and integrations.

  3. Step 3

    Delivery

    Run migrations, automation and platform build-out in a controlled way.

  4. Step 4

    Operations

    Define lifecycle, monitoring, backup, security and support responsibilities.

  5. Step 5

    Improvement

    Measure, improve and evolve platforms as requirements change.

Managed or co-managed: operations with clear responsibility

ForgeOne can operate platforms end to end or extend internal teams where specialized expertise is needed. The key is a transparent model for responsibilities, escalation, security, documentation and lifecycle.
