Snap Inc. took on the challenge of migrating to Kubernetes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They went all the way from monolith to microservices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their objectives were clear:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Centralized management of services + Enhanced Security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To achieve these, they used a lot of tools available for Kubernetes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kubernetes has a lot of room for customization – So they<\/p>\n\n\n\n

created their own custom control panels for centralization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For other enhancements, a Service mesh-like Envoy was used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was used for translating & forwarding each network packet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Envoy’s Mutual TLS features were also utilized for security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Snap’s example shows the value that can be added by moving<\/p>\n\n\n\n

workloads into Kubernetes. Other teams are moving in too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are looking to move into Kubernetes. We can help!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
