Case Study: Berkshire Grey achieves faster edge cluster upgrades and smoother audits with Sidero Labs’ Talos Linux

Berkshire Grey installs edge clusters in under 6 hours with Sidero Labs

Berkshire Grey, a provider of advanced robotic automation systems for large retail and logistics enterprises, faced challenges with time-intensive upgrades and decentralized configuration management for their Kubernetes clusters operating across distributed customer sites. Their previous setup relied on custom automation scripts, leading to coordination-heavy processes and security audit difficulties. They engaged Sidero Labs and implemented its Talos Linux operating system.

Sidero Labs provided a solution with Talos Linux, a secure and immutable OS that enables declarative configuration management. This allowed Berkshire Grey to perform predictable upgrades and patching through simple configuration patches, streamlining their entire process. The results included faster upgrades, with the ability to install a new cluster in under six hours, and smoother security audits that aided in demonstrating SOC 2 compliance, ultimately enhancing customer trust.
