DFDS started its journey towards a cloud-first strategy two years ago. Since then, a lot has changed. Being such a large company poses some great challenges as with multiple development teams, they need to make sure that everything is visible and configured properly to all the teams and at any given time. In DFDS IT they are working for:

• A platform that can support 75,000 users a day
• As much as possible is automated to free up time for development
• That 20 developer teams can work in parallel but on the same platform
• That they can run their 500, and growing, microservice deployments
• 1 multi-tenant cluster to keep a tight loop and lower maintenance
• Transparency through open source
