Overview
In this transformative project, we transitioned over 100 APIs and web applications from Azure App Service Environment (ASE) to a Kubernetes-based infrastructure. The shift addressed high costs and inflexibility associated with the legacy system, paving the way for a more scalable and efficient environment. The project involved modernizing .NET applications for Linux compatibility, creating Docker containers for all workloads, and deploying them using Kubernetes with Helm charts.
Our team designed CI/CD pipelines to automate deployments, incorporate failover mechanisms, and streamline operational workflows. Kubernetes’ features, such as auto-scaling and load balancing, were leveraged to handle varying traffic loads dynamically. The new setup reduced hosting costs by 30%, improved deployment efficiency, and significantly enhanced system scalability.
This migration positioned the client for future growth by adopting containerized workloads that are easy to manage and expand. By enabling horizontal scaling and faster updates, the client could meet dynamic business demands with ease. The project underscored our ability to deliver cutting-edge solutions tailored to modern enterprise needs.
