Case Study: zyBooks boosts scalability and reliability with ReactiveOps Managed Kubernetes

zyBooks - Customer Case Study

zyBooks, a provider of interactive course materials, faced challenges in scaling their infrastructure and ensuring reliability with their previous AWS Elastic Beanstalk setup. Their small engineering team needed expert help to transition to a more controlled and robust system without the cost of hiring full-time staff. They partnered with ReactiveOps for its managed Kubernetes service.

ReactiveOps implemented a custom Kubernetes platform using its Pentagon framework, which accelerated deployment and improved scalability. The solution provided zyBooks with 24x7 monitoring and a self-healing infrastructure. As a result, zyBooks achieved 99.99% uptime, handled orders of magnitude more throughput, and deployed nearly 500 times in a year, all while controlling costs.
