Context

The DSN/DSI of the Government of Monaco operates a multi-cluster OpenShift infrastructure (OCP 4.x) spanning AWS and Monaco Cloud, the Principality's sovereign cloud — with C3 classified data and IPsec VPN interconnections.

Challenge

Inform a structural hosting decision: assess the current state in depth, compare the possible scenarios objectively, and produce a recommendation that stands up in front of decision-makers — in a sovereign, classified context.

Solution

  1. In-depth audit of the OpenShift infrastructure: architecture, Day-2 ops, security, and compliance.

  2. Led the Architecture, Day-2 Ops, and Security & Compliance workshops with the teams.

  3. Comparative study of 4 hosting scenarios, backed by an opportunity and ROI study.

  4. Design of the target hybrid architecture and the associated landing zone.

  5. Deliverables: 13 technical briefs, an audit report, and a formal recommendation.
