Case Study: GOAT Interactive achieves SEO, efficiency, and security gains with Symphony Solutions' service mesh implementation

GOAT Interactive reduces Cloudflare zone licenses with Symphony Solutions

Symphony Solutions helped GOAT Interactive, an iGaming operator aiming to be a leader in the African market, overcome a significant technical challenge. The client's numerous country-specific applications were hosted on separate domains, which was hurting their overall SEO performance and creating high maintenance complexity and costs for managing multiple DNS zones and SSL certificates. Their primary goals were to improve their brand's SEO and reduce these associated expenses.

To solve this, Symphony Solutions implemented a Service Mesh solution using Google Cloud's Anthos, which is based on Istio. This architecture consolidated the applications under a single domain, routed traffic efficiently, and enhanced security with features like mutual TLS. The results for GOAT Interactive were substantial, including a reduction in Cloudflare licenses and SSL certificates needed, improved SEO, and empowered DevOps capabilities with advanced deployment techniques, all achieved without adding performance-degrading network layers.
