Case Study: Sky Italia achieves 30% infrastructure cost savings with Kong Gateway Enterprise

Sky Italia modernized and transformed into an APIOps-led organization with Kong Gateway Enterprise

Sky Italia, a major Italian media and entertainment company, faced challenges in scaling its service-oriented architecture to support its revenue-generating business goals. Their existing infrastructure lacked the ability to efficiently manage APIs and support a high volume of transactions, preventing them from moving to a microservice architecture and achieving low latency.

By implementing Kong's API management platform, Sky Italia built a new infrastructure focused on automation, observability, and performance. The solution utilized Kong Gateway Enterprise in a hybrid cloud/on-prem deployment to create a centralized APIOps process. This allowed Sky Italia to achieve a 70% increase in performance, an 80% reduction in deployment time, and a 30% savings on infrastructure costs, all while accelerating time-to-market for new services by 20%.
