Scaling Edge Operations at Onefootball with Ambassador

Onefootball, a media company with over 10 million monthly active users, needed a reliable and efficient Kubernetes-based API Gateway and Ingress solution for its workload of 6,000 requests per second. The company chose the open source Edge Stack Kubernetes API gateway due to its cost reduction, observability, and maintainability benefits. By using Edge Stack, Onefootball reduced the number of cloud-based load balancers from approximately 100 to four, leveraged Prometheus' capabilities for better observability, and decoupled cluster settings and applications' delivery process for increased velocity in shipping new features.
