Problem Statement
-
The primary goal was to achieve consistent performance across all verticals during the October and December Sales – Peak traffic
-
Support for end-to-end handling and management of events during the Sale.
-
Multiple challenges with their GCP account ranging from memory rightsizing, compatibility issues, etc.
-
Required an organized and robust pre-production environment
-
Other issues pertaining to cost optimization and security implementations.
Solution Offered!
- Streamlined their GCP account management
- Set up Eagle Eye P0 Alerting for improved system visibility
- Enabled easier integration and management of open-source tools like ELK stack with Kafka, Argo CD, Jenkins, RundeckConsul, MongoDB, and HA proxy.
- Upgraded security with IAM implementation and IP whitelisting from HAproxy. In addition, code was moved from the shared server to GitOps for better tracking of changes
- Improvised their pre-production environments by implementing automation in the performance testing environment, code versioning for tracking changes, and optimized the deployment process.
- Simplified various challenges with GCP for instance insufficient quota, load balancing issues, etc.
- For cost optimization we created jobs that notified about the running instance at night or on weekends.
- Created backup of databases from the Production environment and restored them to the Performance testing environment for setting up a similar-to-production environment for conducting tests on code reliability. And other migration of services from VMs to Kubernetes.
