Case Study: Spindlemedia deploys 10x faster with the Octopus Kubernetes agent
Key results
The challenge
Spindlemedia provides cloud-based tax collection software. Before Octopus, deployments were manual and most clients ran on their own servers, so the team wrote custom scripts and deployed only once a year, with each release taking many months to prepare and making fixes hard to ship.
The solution
Spindlemedia adopted Octopus in 2015 and used tenanted deployments, tenant tags, and Runbooks to automate delivery, later migrating most workloads to Kubernetes with the Octopus Kubernetes agent.
“Deployments are now 10 times faster if not more thanks to the Kubernetes agent. It's simplified the process, making it easier to migrate our customers across.”

The results, in context
With the Octopus Kubernetes agent, Spindlemedia's deployments are 10 times faster, and the team shifted from deploying once a year to weekly, with the option to deploy many times a day. Octopus supported the company's migration from on-premises software to Kubernetes.
