Acquia is the largest provider of hosting capabilities for Drupal, with more than 4,000 organizations using the company’s solutions for content, community and commerce. To continue meeting customer needs and optimize the performance, scalability and cost efficiency of its core hosting offering, Acquia decided to move to a Kubernetes container-based platform. This major re-platforming effort would affect 2500+ customers and tens of thousands of applications. With this move, Acquia needed the ability to right-size resource capacity to support customer applications, while also scaling as needed based on each application’s consumption requirements. With each customer environment being unique, manual application tuning wasn’t feasible due to the massive amount of time and effort that would be required. In this session, we show how Acquia was able to automate the process of achieving and maintaining Kubernetes resource efficiency at scale. With the ability to forecast demand, and then make resource decisions around application configuration based upon the forecast, Acquia can now effectively manage applications and meet their customers’ evolving requirements. Presented by Erwin Daria, Director of Technical Alliances, StormForge.
