VSHN - The DevOps Company
Driving Innovation through Reliable Operations
VSHN transforms software into online services by automating and managing application workloads. We empower developers and businesses with DevOps, Containers, and Cloud-Native Solutions to drive innovation.
As Switzerland’s leading Managed Service Provider, we optimize IT platforms and simplify cloud and on-premises operations. We ensure reliability, scalability, and security, enabling software teams to innovate efficiently. With deep Kubernetes, OpenShift, and Cloud-Native Operations expertise, we provide Platform Engineering and 24/7 support to streamline IT operations.
VSHN offers self-service products like APPUiO and Application Catalog alongside Managed OpenShift, GitOps, CI/CD, and VM-based services. Our Application Marketplace bridges the gap between CSPs, ISVs, and Enterprises, offering Cloud-Native services and DevOps tools. Delivered primarily as managed services, our solutions ensure applications are testable, deployable, scalable, and operable across multi-cloud and on-premises environments, improving security, compliance, and cost efficiency. Combining cutting-edge technology with reliable operational support, we enable software companies to focus on their core business, turning software into robust, scalable online services.
Let us handle the Ops so you can build the future.
Founded to change the hosting market fundamentally, VSHN has redefined how IT platforms are managed, emphasizing automation, agility, and continuous improvement. Since our founding in 2014, we’ve been 100% self-owned and have grown to a team of 50+ dedicated VSHNeers. With offices in Zurich, Switzerland, and Vancouver, Canada, we serve 350 partners and customers, operating in 16 clouds worldwide. As the first Swiss Kubernetes Certified Service Provider (KCSP) and first Swiss Red Hat Premier Certified Cloud Service Provider (CCSP), winner of the Digital Economy Award, and recognized as a Kununu Top Company, we bring top-tier expertise to every project. Our ISO 27001 certification, adherence to FINMA guidelines, and ISAE 3402 Type 2 audit ensure security and compliance at the highest level.
As a lean, cloud-agnostic company, we don’t operate our own cloud or data centers but instead manage and optimize applications across public, private, and hybrid infrastructures. We believe in the power of Open Source, collaboration, and transparency to forge strong partnerships that drive success and ensure happy customers. This commitment goes beyond words – it’s in our DNA. We actively contribute to the open-source community through Project Syn, and with K8up, a Kubernetes backup operator, we even initiated a CNCF sandbox project.
