The Challenge

Ent Credit Union is a financial institution that has consistently strived to provide the best financial solutions while embracing cutting-edge technologies to stay at the forefront of the industry. The company recognized the challenges posed by Kubernetes in their development workflows.


Kubernetes, while a powerful platform, introduced complexities that slowed down the debugging and troubleshooting processes for their development team. With Kubernetes environments involving multiple interconnected components, identifying and resolving issues could be time-consuming and cumbersome. Traditional methods of debugging and testing within Kubernetes often required lengthy deployment cycles, making it difficult to iterate on code changes swiftly. This challenge hindered the company's ability to scale their development team efficiently and meet their business objectives promptly. The need for a more streamlined and efficient development process led them to explore solutions such as Telepresence to address these pain points and enhance their development workflow.

Coping with the intricacies of Kubernetes was no small feat, and it often slowed down our development process.
