## Landing Page Content (Draft)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Headline:** Sovereign DevOps for EU SMEs — without vendor lock-in.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Subhead:** Railiance-as-a-Service packages reproducible Kubernetes operations,
|
|||
|
|
observability, and FOS-aligned governance so your team can focus on product work
|
|||
|
|
instead of founder-only ops.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Proof points:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- EU-hostable infrastructure with documented restore drills
|
|||
|
|
- GDPR-conscious operations model (data stays under your control)
|
|||
|
|
- VSM-based coordination — not another opaque SaaS dashboard
|
|||
|
|
- Open-core templates; no mandatory hyperscaler control plane
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**CTA:** Book an architecture review → scoped managed cutover proposal.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Onboarding Workflow
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **Discovery call** — scope workloads, compliance constraints, team size.
|
|||
|
|
2. **Architecture review** — map domains, hubs, and OAS substrate requirements.
|
|||
|
|
3. **Provision** — deploy k3s cluster (Railiance-managed or customer-owned).
|
|||
|
|
4. **GitOps baseline** — ArgoCD apps, secrets custody via OpenBao path.
|
|||
|
|
5. **Observability** — Grafana/Loki/Tempo (or customer-preferred stack).
|
|||
|
|
6. **Restore drill** — execute and capture evidence within 14 days of go-live.
|
|||
|
|
7. **Hub registration** — register repos in dev-hub; ops evidence on Core Hub.
|
|||
|
|
8. **Handover** — runbooks, access model, escalation contacts.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Legal and GmbH Framework (Draft — Not Legal Advice)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Topic | v0.1 posture |
|
|||
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|||
|
|
| **Entity** | Pre-revenue consulting may invoice as founder/freelance; GmbH formation triggered at €10k annual revenue or first managed customer (see bootstrap-protocol). |
|
|||
|
|
| **Liability** | Managed tier: liability capped at 12 months fees; exclude indirect/consequential damages; customer maintains data custody. |
|
|||
|
|
| **SLA** | Managed: 99.5% control-plane availability monthly; credits capped at 25% monthly fee. Fully operated: negotiable. |
|
|||
|
|
| **Data processing** | DPA required for managed/operated tiers; subprocessors listed in canon. |
|
|||
|
|
| **Insurance** | Cyber/liability policy review before first external managed customer. |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## First Customer Acquisition Strategy
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **Internal dogfood** — complete Railiance restore drill + fin-hub runway evidence.
|
|||
|
|
2. **Founder network** — 3 architecture review offers to EU technical SMEs with DSGVO pressure.
|
|||
|
|
3. **Consulting wedge** — fixed-scope "sovereign ops assessment" (2–5 days) leading to managed tier.
|
|||
|
|
4. **Content** — publish restore-drill case study (non-secret evidence only).
|
|||
|
|
5. **Partners** — EU hosting/legal partners for GmbH + DPA handoff.
