Cloud Native Virtualization for Financial Institutions: Legacy to Kubernetes - Real World Examples

Explore a 42-minute webinar featuring Michael Tillman, Solution Architect Manager for Mirantis, who presents an anonymized real-world case study of how a leading financial institution successfully transitioned from legacy virtualization to Kubernetes-powered cloud native virtualization. Discover how this organization dramatically reduced VM provisioning time from approximately 10 days to just 1 hour using Mirantis k0rdent and enterprise support services. Learn about the challenges traditional virtualization poses for financial services, how cloud native approaches optimize performance while reducing costs and eliminating vendor lock-in, and the specific security, compliance, and operational benefits for regulated environments. The presentation covers the importance of cloud native technology, common challenges with legacy systems, Mirantis' solution portfolio, detailed explanations of k0rdent and its key components (KubeVirt, MetalLB, Prometheus & Grafana), specific benefits for financial organizations, and concludes with a National Bank adoption case study and key takeaways.
