A Lightning Building of a Kubernetes-Based Infrastructure from Scratch for a Next-Gen Blockchain Project

Business Task

Dysnix was assigned to develop a Kubernetes-based infrastructure from scratch in a short time — 1 month — for a quick start of the project. Also, the Dysnix team had to deploy the development and production environments with 30 services on Kubernetes as well as develop and run a CI/CD system. During the project maintenance (support) period, tasks expanded and Dysnix had to launch 1 more environment, and the number of project services increased to 70.

The Dysnix team's task was

• Building a high-available, scalable, fault-tolerant, and secure Kubernetes-based Infrastructure from scratch
• Setting up CI/CD system
• Infrastructure cost optimization by 40-50 percent

Solutions

• Building a highly-available, secure, and scalable Kubernetes-based server infrastructure
• Building a cost-effective infrastructure
• Full Implementation of the Infrastructure as Code using Terraform
• Full deployment of services as Code using Helm and Helmfile
• Fully automated CI/CD system using CloudBuild
• Design and implementation of basic monitoring and alerting systems with custom business metrics
• Design and implementation assistance of a custom solution to get high-available scalable Ethereum JSON-RPC&Websockets service

Value delivered by Dysnix

• Continuous mentoring and consultancy of the in-house team
• Easy changes and support with Infrastructure as Code and Deployment as Code
• Fast and solid deployment of multiple environments with similar services
• Together with the in-house team, Dysnix continues supporting the project with a high response time for events
