Migration of OpenShift 3 platform to OpenShift 4
Our client’s applications which are running on OpenShift 3 platform were not properly architected or packaged for cloud-native environments. In most cases applications were just placed into containers without a full understanding of how the cloud-native benefits would be realized. This has caused a significant consumption of compute resources on OpenShift 3 and created instability in some instances. Client needed a review exercise to ensure that the migration of all Applications to the new OpenShift 4 platform does not fall short of the mark.
Key requirements achieved during the project:
Assessment of all Applications on existing platform
Remediation of Applications and optimised configuration for deployment on Openshift 4
Setting up of new DEVOPS pipelines and publishing new a Framework for deployments.
Identified a DEVOPS Champion to ensure that we achieve the stability and performance promised on the new platform.
Showcased capabilities of the new platform i.e. Defined processes, leveraged automation to redeploy etc.
Client needed to assess the existing MS SQL, Oracle databases and move them to open source data bases to reduce the operational costs.
Key requirements achieved during the project: Database Sizing
Application Compatibility for MySQL/Postgress
Integration, Production rollout and testing
Migration to MySQL/Postgress
One of client’s biggest cost was related to their proprietary database costs– reduce costs had to move to an Open Source software – 40% cost saving achieved.
Database Decommissioning and Resizing
