iGaming technology provider SOFTSWISS has completed its first production migration to Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE), marking the first step in a broader infrastructure modernisation programme of its Casino Platform aimed at improving scalability, resilience and software delivery.
The first production casino deployments are already running on the new cloud-native architecture, with additional rollouts planned across its Casino Platform portfolio.
The migration expands Kubernetes adoption across production workloads while allowing operators to move to the new environment without changing integrations, workflows, compliance processes or day-to-day operations.
According to SOFTSWISS, the new architecture is designed to improve platform resilience through automated workload management and self-healing capabilities, enhance stability during periods of high player activity, accelerate the delivery of product updates and new features, and provide greater scalability to support business growth.
The project was completed in collaboration with Oracle, with SOFTSWISS redesigning core platform components, rebuilding deployment pipelines, modernising monitoring systems and introducing new operational practices to support the migration.
“Kubernetes has been the backbone of our shared infrastructure services for years, supporting our core services as they scaled. Extending the entire Casino Platform to the same cloud-native architecture was a natural progression,” said Sergey Kastukevich, Chief Technology Officer at SOFTSWISS.
“Beyond modernising the underlying infrastructure, this transformation gives us greater operational consistency, more efficient workload orchestration, and faster, more reliable software delivery. Most importantly, it gives us a stronger foundation for the future – allowing us to continuously deliver new capabilities without compromising the reliability our customers depend on,” he added.
Marta Tolosa, Director and Cloud Native Black Belt Leader at Oracle, said the migration demonstrated SOFTSWISS’ engineering capabilities.
“The successful migration of a platform of this scale demonstrates the strength of the SOFTSWISS engineering organisation and its commitment to continuous improvement,” Tolosa said.
“Expanding Kubernetes adoption across production workloads requires expertise, coordination, and technical execution, and we are pleased to support the team in building a more scalable and cloud-native future for the Casino Platform,” she added.
SOFTSWISS said the Kubernetes migration is the first phase of a broader transformation of its Casino Platform portfolio as it continues investing in technologies designed to help operators grow while maintaining performance and reliability.
The company will share engineering insights from the project at its upcoming Tech Race Summit, a technology conference focused on infrastructure architecture, cloud technologies and software delivery.
