RX-M Announces Managed Service Plus at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2022
Miami, FL, Oct. 24, 2022 – RX-M, a cloud native technology consulting, training and advisory firm, announced at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon adding a new service model for Kubernetes Managed Service and SaaS customers, Managed Service Plus. The services provides clients support options that begin where managed service providers and SaaS service offerings end.
“We’re pleased to provide this layered support and service offering for Kubernetes Managed Service and SaaS customers,” said Randy Abernethy, RX-M managing partner. “As Kubernetes becomes more and more integrated with enterprise solution environments, it has become clear that there is a significant service gap in the upper layers of a complete Kubernetes solution.”
Traditional Kubernetes service providers ensure that the Kubernetes platform, container technology, networking and storage interfaces are operating day to day, but that leaves a large need for service and support on the consumption side unaddressed. Developers, DevOps teams, SREs and Administrators face continual challenges integrating the platform with observability tools, meshes, gateways, application architecture, and CI/CD. The support and service requirements above the level of the managed service provider is actually larger than that of the platform itself. Our new layered service offering addresses this critical need in the market and our neutral disposition makes it easy for us to work with the many vendors competing in the market to offer managed platform services,” Abernethey added RX-M is a charter member of the CNCF, in the founding class of Kubernetes Certified Service Providers (KCSP) and Kubernetes Training Partners (KTP), and a Linux Foundation Authorized Training Partner (ATP). RX-M offers market neutral consulting and training services and does not back any single cloud native vendor or project.
