From zero to Kubernetes in weeks
KubeStart gets your team from Kubernetes-curious to Kubernetes-confident — with a running cluster, hands-on training, and a real workload deployed.
What's included
Everything you need
Rapid Cluster Setup
Production-ready cluster in days, not weeks. We provision, configure, and validate everything.
Hands-On Training
Two days of hands-on training with your team. Real workloads, real scenarios, real learning.
Starter Runbooks
Essential day-2 runbooks for common operations — upgrades, scaling, debugging, and incident response.
First App Deployed
We deploy your first real workload to the cluster together. You see GitOps work end-to-end.
30-Day Follow-Up
Slack access to your Stakater engineer for 30 days post-engagement. Questions answered as they arise.

Even the starter cluster follows security best practices — pod security, RBAC, and network policies configured.
