Case Study: SonicWall Accelerates Kubernetes Adoption with Rafay

Rafay Accelerates SonicWall’s Adoption of Kubernetes & Amazon EKS

SonicWall, a global cybersecurity company, needed to modernize its backend and management services as customers moved applications to the cloud and as deployments expanded into hybrid environments. To support this shift, SonicWall evaluated Kubernetes management options that could automate operations across Amazon EKS and on-premises or third-party environments, while integrating with its existing CI/CD, SSO, registry, secrets, and logging tools.

Rafay Systems provided its Kubernetes Management Cloud to manage both Amazon EKS and upstream Kubernetes from a single pane of glass, helping SonicWall standardize operations across six AWS regions and on-premises environments. With Rafay, SonicWall became operational in less than three months, accelerated delivery timelines by 50%, and avoided hiring five additional DevOps engineers, lowering operational cost while improving Kubernetes visibility, governance, and lifecycle management.
