Your Kubernetes Integration Tax Report

Here's what Kubernetes tool sprawl is costing your organization.

Kubernetes Integration Tax is not a bill you pay to a vendor. It's the dollar value of your engineers' time spent on plumbing instead of building new features.

Projected Savings From Consolidation
Based on industry data, ~40% of integration tax is recoverable by consolidating onto a unified networking, security, and observability platform.

Estimated payback
,
From contract start, including a 60% Year-1 ramp
3-year net benefit
$0
Cumulative savings minus estimated platform investment
Method: Recovery rate (40%) and Year-1 ramp (60%) come from the Calico ROI model and are conservative against customer-reported ranges. Investment is estimated from cluster count plus a one-time implementation cost; your actual contract may differ.

Your team is likely losing time to dashboard hopping across different tools. See how a unified platform replaces glue work with a single pane of glass.
