The Challenge

A large technology conglomerate was managing hundreds of applications across multiple data centers with inconsistent deployment processes, resource utilization issues, and complex scaling challenges. Their existing infrastructure was becoming increasingly difficult to manage and scale efficiently.

They needed a unified container orchestration platform that could standardize deployments, optimize resource utilization, and provide enterprise-grade security and monitoring capabilities across their entire application portfolio.

Key Challenges:

  • Inconsistent deployment processes across teams
  • Poor resource utilization and scaling inefficiencies
  • Complex multi-environment management
  • Lack of standardized monitoring and logging
  • Security and compliance requirements
