From two days of manual setup to one click
How Digital Care turned a Finnish software company’s client onboarding into a self-service PaaS platform on Azure.
The client runs an Azure-based platform where every customer gets a dedicated environment. Onboarding a new customer meant assembling that environment by hand: around two days of repetitive, error-prone work per client, and updates to existing clients were just as manual. The engineering team was scaling its headcount with its client list.
Make new-client onboarding a non-event: ‘one-click’ deployment of all infrastructure and applications for a new client, an easy update path for every existing client, and Kubernetes as the single orchestrator underneath.
A self-service platform, orchestrated by Kubernetes.
Kubernetes foundation
Deployed a new AKS cluster as the platform’s core; every client environment became a set of declaratively described workloads.
One-click provisioning
Infrastructure defined in Terraform and Helm; creating a client environment became a single pipeline run triggered from an internal portal.
CI/CD for everything
Build and rollout pipelines in Azure DevOps: new versions ship to all client environments automatically, without downtime.
Secrets done right
Azure KeyVault integrated into the platform, no credentials living in configs or pipelines.
Monitoring included
Prometheus + Grafana wired into every environment from the moment it’s created: resource consumption and service availability visible per client.
