Case Study: Tipico achieves 3X more deployments and 10X faster MTTR with IBM Instana

Tipico Realizes Massive Gains Using Instana to Achieve Successful Digital Transformation

Tipico, a Malta-based sports betting and digital gaming company and category leader in Germany, faced the need to migrate large legacy 3‑tier applications to cloud-based microservices to boost delivery speed and avoid costly downtime. Under pressure to enable CI/CD and put developers in charge of their services, Tipico evaluated APM tools and chose IBM Instana for its cloud-ready, low‑configuration monitoring and automated observability.

IBM Instana was rolled out broadly to development teams, providing automatic discovery, Application Perspectives, and instant visibility (including automatic ingestion of Dropwizard metrics) alongside fully automated provisioning and zero‑configuration monitoring. As a result, Tipico realized a 3× increase in deployments per month and a 10× improvement in MTTR, enabling weekly microservice releases, greater developer ownership, and much higher delivery velocity with less production risk.
