The Short Version.

Running OpenShift in production for financial services is hard: latency, resilience, audit, data residency and round-the-clock operations all have to hold at once. Options does exactly that, at scale, for more than 600 institutions.

You get the deepest OpenShift credential Red Hat awards, a global footprint you can run on, a compliance record you can hand to your regulator, and one provider accountable for the whole stack. Prove it on your own workload in 30 days.

Why Teams Choose Options.

Credential

The Deepest OpenShift Credential

Red Hat Premier Partner with all three OpenShift specializations, and five-time Container Platform Specialist of the Year.

Focus

Built For Financial Services

Not a general cloud with a finance page. Hardened for capital markets, banking and insurance, and run for 600+ institutions.

Footprint

Run Where You Need To

70+ data centres and 13 offices. On-prem, in colo, in your cloud or ours — with data residency you can name.

Operations

Operated Around The Clock

24/7 follow-the-sun operations and a 15-year SOC compliance track record. The platform is watched while you sleep.

Accountability

One Provider, The Whole Stack

Infrastructure, platform, AI and operations under one bill and one SLA. No seam between your platform vendor and your infrastructure vendor.

Proof

Proof Before You Commit

A 30-day Validation Sandbox on your own workload. Standard OpenShift underneath — no proprietary lock-in, portable by design.

What "FSI-Hardened" Actually Means.

The badges matter because of what sits behind them — four things a general cloud rarely gives you.

Compliance Inheritance

SOC 2 Type II and DORA Article 28 platform evidence you inherit, instead of assembling it per environment.

Proven Latency

A public STAC benchmark shows Red Hat OpenShift matching bare-metal latency — the reason trading workloads can move.

Data Residency

Workloads and data pinned to a jurisdiction you choose, across a footprint that spans 70+ locations.

Portability

Standard OpenShift and containers. If you ever leave, your workloads leave with you — the exit plan your regulator asks for.
