About
Open source roots. Enterprise delivery.
We're a team of Kubernetes engineers based in Stockholm, Sweden. We help enterprises ship faster with less operational complexity — and we build open source tools that the community uses too.
Our Story
Started with a problem.
Stayed for the craft.
Stakater started with a simple observation: most enterprises were struggling with Kubernetes — not because it's inherently hard, but because there was no clear path from "we have a cluster" to "we're running production workloads confidently."
We built the tools, the practices, and the services to fix that. Over time, our open source work attracted a community. Our consulting attracted enterprise customers. Our managed platform attracted teams who wanted the outcome without the overhead.
Today we're a Red Hat Premier Partner, running 100+ customers across Europe, with open source projects trusted by thousands of teams worldwide.
Values
How we work
Open Source First
We build in the open, share what we learn, and give back. Reloader and Forecastle are used by thousands of teams worldwide.
Engineers, not consultants
Everyone at Stakater has shipped production Kubernetes. We talk to customers from experience, not from slide decks.
Outcomes, not outputs
We measure success by what your team can do after working with us — not by how many deliverables we shipped.
Sustainability Commitment
We align our work with UN SDGs 9 and 13. Technology and climate responsibility are not in conflict.
