Mendix Containerization
A large organization approached us with a complex challenge: modernizing their extensive portfolio of 26 Mendix applications. They needed a robust solution to streamline their deployment processes and enhance system management, all while working within their infrastructure constraints.
The organization was seeking cutting-edge technologies to revolutionize their deployment pipeline and testing procedures. Traditional cloud solutions weren't meeting their strict security and compliance requirements, necessitating a more tailored approach.
What might have seemed like a standard cloud transformation project revealed itself as an opportunity to create something truly innovative. We approached the challenge with fresh perspective, focusing not just on immediate deployment needs, but on building a sustainable, long-term solution that would scale with their evolving needs.
This case study demonstrates how we transformed their application deployment landscape, delivering a solution that exceeded expectations while maintaining the highest standards of security and efficiency.

The Problem
Manual deployments were taking 30 minutes per application, creating bottlenecks across their portfolio. The organization needed faster deployment cycles but lacked expertise in Kubernetes containerization and automated deployment processes.
Complex Deployment Needs
Managing and deploying 26 Mendix applications efficiently while ensuring security and compliance with government standards.
Technology Adoption Challenges
Concerns about the learning curve associated with containers and Kubernetes, plus uncertainty about Mendix compatibility.
Manual Deployment Process
Time-consuming deployment process taking up to 30 minutes per application with no automation.
Skill Gap
Staff required training and expertise in managing containerized applications on Kubernetes.
The Resolution
We transformed their application infrastructure by implementing on-premises Kubernetes with automated CI/CD pipelines. This enabled rapid deployments across multiple environments while maintaining security and reliability through comprehensive testing and chaos engineering protocols.
