Achieved Near-Zero Costs on Non-Production Environments for a
Leading Bank

A top Indian bank reduced its non-production cloud costs to near zero while boosting efficiency and security. By modernizing its infrastructure with automated, scalable solutions, the bank enhanced performance and ensured seamless digital banking services with 24/7 security monitoring.

The Problem Statement

The client faced increasing complexity in managing their banking services due to a growing volume of transactions and evolving regulatory requirements. They needed a scalable and secure infrastructure capable of supporting critical operations while ensuring compliance with stringent data privacy standards. Additionally, modernizing their deployment processes was essential to enhance efficiency and reliability across applications.

Challenges

Solutions

To enable seamless deployments, optimize costs, and enhance system observability for efficient application management, the following innovative solutions were applied:

Implemented Azure Red Hat OpenShift for a reliable and scalable platform.

Adopted a rolling deployment strategy in SIT and Dev environments to enhance deployment velocity with zero downtime during updates or new feature releases.

Designed a lightweight communication model for improved efficiency.

Enabled A/B testing and canary deployment of services for controlled feature rollouts.

Set up automated, dynamic Azure environments to optimize costs.

Utilized Terraform to reduce costs by automating infrastructure provisioning and eliminating manual processes.

Applied a sidecar proxy model to capture critical metrics, including Golden Signals (latency, traffic, error rates, and saturation).

Used client-side load balancing to minimize the load on Kubernetes components like CoreDNS and KubeRouter.

Leveraged Kiali to visualize inter-service dependencies and monitor network health.

Delivered advanced application logging using FluentD, Kiali, Elasticsearch, and Kibana for enhanced observability.

Outcomes

Upto 100% Reduced Cost in terms of the Cloud Deployment of modern cloud native applications.

Delivered Seamless CI/CD management and Fault Tolerance.

New security approach with 24/7 security monitoring equipment, and quarterly audits.
