Case Study: Red Hat OpenShift Migration (HA)

Process

Our partnership with Red Hat Inc. began with an extensive analysis of their CI/CD Rollout and Go-Live automation infrastructure. Through collaborative sessions with IT managers, Project Managers and Red Hat automation engineers as well as Agile Coaches, we identified key bottlenecks in their CI/CD systems. Our team employed a data-driven approach, deploying End-To-End Tests and ensuring a seamless transition from their IBM Mainframe infrastructure to scalable Red Hat OpenShift. We developed a custom Quay-powered CI/CD system that adapts to varying software development demands while ensuring a standardised Enterprise software strategy

Outcome

The implementation led to a extraordinarily reduction in production downtime and a clear improvement in Developer Experience for multiple Business Units. The new smart Docker Image Management platform in High-Available Air-Gap mode enabled self-healing and secure deployments, resulting in a big increase in overall Developer and Ops Engineer productivity. Finanz Informatik's innovative approach has positioned them as industry leaders in Financial App solutions.
