Issue 2
Company Z encountered difficulties in managing multiple applications across different environments, leading to prolonged deployment times, increased downtime, and decreased productivity.
Resolution
To tackle these challenges, Company Z implemented a containerization strategy utilizing Docker and Kubernetes. They began by identifying which components could be containerized and devised a plan to break down their monolithic application into smaller, more manageable microservices. Docker was utilized to create container images for each microservice, which were then stored in a Docker registry. Additionally, Kubernetes was employed to orchestrate the containers, enabling efficient scaling, monitoring, and management of the applications across various environments. With the new containerized architecture in place, Company Z experienced significant reductions in deployment times and downtime, ultimately enhancing productivity and customer satisfaction. Kubernetes' auto-scaling feature further improved resource efficiency and cost savings by automatically adjusting container scales based on traffic. By adopting containerization and Kubernetes, Company Z successfully achieved its DevOps objectives and continues to leverage containers and container orchestration in its ongoing development and deployment strategies.
