Case Study: Pinterest boosts build efficiency and scaling with CNCF Kubernetes
A Cloud Native Computing Foundation Case Study
Pinterest Pinning its past, present, and future on cloud native
Pinterest, a social media company with a massive infrastructure of 1,000 microservices running on AWS, faced challenges with velocity and efficiency due to complex, inconsistent tooling. To create a faster path from idea to production, they engaged with the Cloud Native Computing Foundation and began a migration to Docker containers, seeking a more streamlined orchestration solution.
The Cloud Native Computing Foundation's technology, Kubernetes, was selected as the orchestration platform. The initial implementation for Jenkins workloads resulted in a 30% reduction in daily instance-hours and allowed the team to reclaim over 80% of capacity during non-peak hours. This solution also enabled on-demand scaling, simplified deployment, and significantly reduced build times.
