TEQcloudAbout
TEQcloud is one engineer. On purpose.
Not a startup waiting to scale. Not a one-person shop waiting to grow into an agency. A small business, kept small, so the work stays the work and the bill stays predictable.
Philosophy
Small by design
Why "intentionally small" matters to you
No layer between you and the engineer
You will not be handed off to an account manager, then to a junior, then to someone in a different timezone. The person you email is the person who runs your cluster.
Focus over growth
We are not trying to become an MSP. The roadmap is depth in one thing, Kubernetes operations, not breadth across "cloud solutions".
Built for clarity, not for scale
Fixed pricing, simple contracts, written reports, no jargon when plain language works. You should always know what you are paying for and why.
The team
Just one
Quinten de Haard
Engineer, sole proprietor, the person doing the work. Sales, operations, support, all the same desk. Background in infrastructure and platform engineering. Based in the Netherlands, working remotely with clients the globe.
No-one else
No hidden subcontractors. No planned hires we can promise. When this page says "we", it means TEQcloud as a business, but the hands on the keyboard are Quinten's.
The lab
A rack at home, for staying sharp
Not a hosting product
The servers in this picture are a home lab, used for testing upgrade paths, breaking things on purpose, and rehearsing the work before it touches a production cluster. We do not sell hosting on them.
Where the certifications come from
New CNI, new operator, new storage class, it runs on the lab first. By the time it appears in a client cluster, it has already been installed, broken and recovered at least once at home.
Credentials
Certifications
Honest list. Achieved badges first, planned next. Updated when something changes.
AZ-900 — Azure Fundamentals
Microsoft. Achieved.
On the roadmap
Order is deliberate. Fundamentals first, then networking, then the Kubernetes track.

KCNA

CKA

Sound like the kind of supplier you want?
The right clients tend to recognise themselves in the way we describe ourselves.
