Case Study: CGI achieves secure multi-cloud Kubernetes deployment in 1 hour with Appvia Wayfinder

CGI slashes Kubernetes deployment time from 1 week to 1 hour with Appvia

CGI, a systems integrator, faced challenges managing its Lovelace machine learning platform across multiple clouds. The platform was initially built exclusively on AWS EKS, which limited customer options and could not provision to Azure AKS or GCP GKE. CGI also contended with cloud-specific tools that lacked transferability, outdated Kubernetes versions creating security risks, and manual configurations requiring constant operational overhead.

Appvia deployed its Wayfinder platform to provide a single management layer across AWS, Azure, and GCP. The solution automated cluster provisioning, security hardening, and the configuration of platform components. As a result, Appvia helped CGI slash deployment times from one week to one hour, maintain the highest security standards across all clusters, and eliminate operational overhead, allowing developers to focus solely on application development.
