How video platform leader movingimage rightsizes Kubernetes containers

Movingimage, a leading European enterprise video platform, faced challenges with overprovisioned Kubernetes containers and oversized virtual machines after migrating to Microsoft Azure, which led to inefficient resource usage and stability issues. The company lacked the tools to accurately assess container resource requirements, leading to manual log reviews. With the introduction of New Relic as an observability platform, the DevSecOps team gained detailed insights into resource consumption, enabling them to make data-driven decisions and optimize container sizes. This optimization significantly reduced the number of nodes in production, cutting compute costs by about 60% and improving stability and performance, garnering positive feedback from customers. The initiative, which involved creating a custom dashboard to guide resource allocation and provide recommendations for rightsizing, reflects movingimage's commitment to becoming a more data-driven organization.
