How Qovery Could Have Saved Time and Effort in Compare the Market's EKS Migration

Compare the Market, a prominent fintech company known for its effective price comparison platform, embarked on a significant migration from on-premises infrastructure to Amazon Web Services (AWS) to manage its growing digital demand. Initially successful using Amazon EC2 for scalability, the company faced high operational costs due to underutilized resources, prompting a shift towards Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Services (EKS) for better scalability and efficiency. However, this migration was delayed by organizational priorities and the inherent complexity of mastering Kubernetes. The transition, finalized in June 2023, highlighted the challenges of resource management, application compatibility, and the steep learning curve associated with EKS. The text suggests that using Qovery, a platform that simplifies Kubernetes management by integrating into developer environments and streamlining resource allocation, could have expedited this process by offering a more user-friendly approach and reducing the time and complexity involved in the migration.
