Waynabox | Kubernetes

Challenge

Waynabox had its microservices infrastructure deployed on a single AWS server with DockerSwarm without any node-level scalability.

Due to this, the platform generated adaptability issues when launching marketing and advertising campaigns through its main communication channels: TV, influencers, and social media.

The challenge was to analyze the current infrastructure and develop a scalable solution capable of adapting to the platform's growth needs.

The solution: Improving scalability by migrating from DockerSwarm to Kubernetes

After thoroughly analyzing the needs of Waynabox's platform, we proposed migrating the solution from DockerSwarm to Kubernetes using Amazon Web Services' Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS).

We had to configure the deployment models for all the client's applications, as the DockerSwarm microservices solution is not compatible with Kubernetes.

At the infrastructure level, we integrated some managed AWS services, offloading the Kubernetes cluster and ensuring that the cluster's resources were used for the client's main applications. The entire infrastructure was deployed with Terraform.

After the complete migration of the platform to the new solution, Waynabox entrusted us with the management and monitoring of their platform in a 24/7 mode (Managed Cloud Enterprise) to ensure the continuous reliability and proper functioning of the platform.

Benefits: Integration of automation and AWS managed services

• Cost Savings: 50% reduction in IT platform costs due to the ability to grow by services.
• Scalability: The current platform allows scalability that adjusts to the real needs of the business.
• Operations: Use of SaaS services, eliminating the need to manage non-critical services.
