Case Study: Playtech enhances application security and GitOps automation with Tigera Calico

Playtech resolves 4 security and troubleshooting challenges with Tigera

Playtech, a leading gambling technology company, faced significant challenges after migrating to Amazon EKS. Their DevOps team struggled with a lack of visibility into security policies and traffic flows, an inability to safely test new policies, and inadequate troubleshooting tools for their Kubernetes environment, all while needing to maintain EU GDPR compliance.

Working with Tigera and using its Calico solution, Playtech integrated policy as code and automated their infrastructure. Tigera's Calico provided the necessary visibility, policy lifecycle management, and debugging tools, solving their four core challenges. This enabled Playtech to achieve a secure, GitOps-driven workflow on Amazon EKS while remaining fully compliant with EU GDPR regulations.
