What we can show you before you reply
The facts a careful buyer checks before answering a cold email, in one place, without adjectives.
In shortDixence is a small Swiss team of engineers, a brand of Idempotent Ltd, that maintains the stacks of fifteen engineering teams. About a hundred upstream charts tracked monthly for CVEs and upgrade order, about twenty composable stacks from cert-manager to the GPU operator, a monthly pinned release with changelog and security summary, a fixed monthly fee, and zero pages sent to a customer's on-call.
Numbers first, then how we work, then what we publish. No adjectives.
The stacks include cert-manager, ingress, CloudNativePG, Grafana, Loki, Mimir and the GPU operator stack. Every team gets a monthly pinned release with a changelog and a security summary.
How we work
We run the scheduled work
Monthly upgrades, patching, the runbook. Your team keeps on-call. We never take the pager, so nothing depends on us in the middle of your night.
Everything in your accounts
Repositories, state files, runbooks: all in your repos and your cloud accounts. If we went quiet, you'd have them the same morning.
Fixed monthly fee
The scope is written before the first month starts.
Seven hours ahead
Switzerland, seven hours ahead of the US East Coast. Maintenance is done before you log on.
What we publish
- GPU on Kubernetes: what works together, September 2026: the compatibility matrix we check before touching any cluster, every line verified against the NVIDIA, Kubernetes, cert-manager, Cilium, Calico and Helm official pages. Refreshed monthly.
- Cloud Survey, August 2026: what broke across the hyperscalers and the European providers last month, with sources.
- State of European Public Cloud 2026.
What we'll add here
A sample monthly changelog, anonymised, and one incident told in ten lines: the versions, the symptom, the delay and the fix. Until then, ask and we'll send the current month's changelog by email.
Get the monthly changelog
The current month's changelog and the matrix, by email, until the anonymised sample lands on this page. One email a month, nothing else.
