Case Study: Tilting Point accelerates Kubernetes migration and boosts deployments with Harness

Tilting Point Migrates to Kubernetes With One Developer and Harness

Tilting Point, a leading free-to-play games publisher, needed a faster, safer way to move from Amazon Elastic Beanstalk and Jenkins to Kubernetes. With only one developer handling pipeline creation and maintenance, deployments were limited, rollback was risky, and the team lacked the DevOps bandwidth to support the migration. They turned to Harness, using its Continuous Delivery and GitOps capabilities to help modernize their software delivery process.

With Harness, Tilting Point was able to complete its first deployment on day one and adopt out-of-the-box canary deployments, reducing the time Evan spent maintaining CI/CD. Harness helped Tilting Point avoid hiring a DevOps engineer, saving well over $100,000 in labor costs, and increased deployment frequency from twice a week to every day — a 3x improvement. Harness also continued to provide support as Tilting Point matured its Kubernetes-based deployment workflow.
