Case Study: Cedana achieves production-grade Kubernetes deployments and secure microVM runtimes with Northflank

Cedana speeds cold starts 2–10x with Northflank

Cedana, a startup building live migration and snapshot/restore infrastructure for GPU-heavy workloads, faced the challenge of needing to deploy and test complex production environments without the burden of manual infrastructure management. They required a platform that could support microVMs and secure runtimes like Kata Containers to test their advanced technology and serve their customers efficiently.

Using Northflank, Cedana implemented a solution that allowed them to deploy production-grade Kubernetes clusters with secure runtimes out of the box. This enabled them to test custom infrastructure components and deploy customer environments with a single click. As a result, Cedana avoided vendor lock-in, shipped tools faster, and successfully completed their SOC 2 Type I audit with minimal effort by leveraging Northflank's built-in compliance features like MFA and audit logs.
