We published the article on Medium "Application migration from Docker Compose to Kubernetes. How, why, and what problems I encountered" by Ronald Ramazanov, Head of DevOps, Loovatech.

In the article Ron told about his work with an application that had significant growth in its user base isn't ready for this. Requirements for speed and availability had grown, and infrastructure and application architecture don`t allow them to be met. The app managed to grow from an MVP and a stand for a single client into a popular SaaS. The lack of fault tolerance and service components' scalability began to significantly interfere with users. It was time to adapt the application to a cluster mode.

What does a migration to the cluster mode feel like for an app with an existing tech stack and live users? What are the options? Any pitfalls? Is it feasible from a cost and effort standpoint? In this article, Ron shared his first-hand experience of application migration from Docker Compose to Kubernetes.
