The Challenge
Preciate began its activity around 2018 and has been growing since then. But, with this growth came a need to re-examine the environments and technology being used, and Preciate’s ability to efficiently control costs.
Have modern IaaS & PaaS services fit the current needs. Something that was started by the customer that is missing in the current environment and modernize the stack to cloud-native technologies and tools such as Docker, Kubernetes, and a service mesh.
The Solution
The customer chose GCP because of the security tools Google provides, custom VM sizes, Global VPC.
GKE – For running many microservices in different production environments (implemented with Namespaces) ISTIO – Service Mesh for Traffic routing, security and visibility Prometheus – Cloud-Native monitoring for Kubernetes & VMs with exporters for all kinds of backends used e.g. redis, kafka, couchbase AlertManager – Routing/Dedup Prometheus alerts
Cutting-edge technologies – consulting on and delivering a variety of workloads, taking into account Kubernetes and Istio to improve security and cost-effectiveness.
Security compliance – consulting on selection of third-party tools to support Preciate’s Security requirements, including endpoint protection, central log management, application audit logs, data protection algorithms, Kubernetes security, infrastructure perimeter security, and evidence provided as Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
The Result
Modern and elastic infrastructure on GCP with efficient cost. Visibility on traffic using a service mesh that helped already mitigate many hidden issues and resulted in great value. Infrastructure that makes onboarding of new workloads an easy thing.
The results
Modern, secure, and elastic infrastructure on GCP with efficient cost and low operational cost. Visibility on traffic using a service mesh that helped already mitigate many hidden application and misconfiguration issues and resulted in great value. Infrastructure that makes onboarding of new workloads an easy thing.
