The Challenge

A large financial services company was running mission-critical workloads on a decade-old monolithic Java application. Deployments took weeks, incidents were frequent, and scaling was manual. The engineering team lacked modern DevOps practices.

The Solution

Designed and executed a phased migration strategy: decomposed the monolith into domain-driven microservices, containerized all workloads with Docker, deployed on Kubernetes, implemented GitOps-based CI/CD, and built a comprehensive observability stack.

Results & Impact

Reduced deployment time from 2 weeks to 15 minutes

Achieved 99.95% uptime (up from 99.2%)

Scaled engineering team from 5 to 25 with platform self-service

Cut infrastructure costs by 40% through right-sizing and autoscaling
