iGaming technology powerhouse SOFTSWISS has announced the completion of its first production migration to Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE) as part of the ongoing modernisation of its Casino Platform infrastructure.
The first production casino deployments are already running on the new architecture, with further rollouts planned across the Casino Platform portfolio.
The migration expands Kubernetes adoption across production workloads, strengthening the platform’s ability to scale. Operators moving to the new environment do not need to change integrations, workflows, compliance processes, or day-to-day operations. This enables operators to modernise their infrastructure without disrupting their business.
Key benefits of the new architecture:
- Greater platform resilience through automated workload management and self-healing capabilities
- Improved stability during traffic spikes and periods of increased player activity
- Faster delivery of product updates, integrations, and new features
- Enhanced scalability to support business growth and market expansion
The project was delivered in close collaboration with Oracle, whose cloud-native technologies and engineering expertise supported the migration.
Moving one of the industry’s largest casino platforms to Kubernetes required significant engineering work. SOFTSWISS teams redesigned core platform components, rebuilt deployment pipelines, modernised monitoring, and introduced new operational practices.
Sergey Kastukevich, CTO at SOFTSWISS and 2025 Oracle Excellence Awards CTO of the Year in EMEA, said: “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. 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.”
Marta Tolosa, Director, Cloud Native Black Belt Leader, added: “The successful migration of a platform of this scale demonstrates the strength of the SOFTSWISS engineering organisation and its commitment to continuous improvement. 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.”
The Kubernetes migration is the first step in a broader transformation across the Casino Platform portfolio. SOFTSWISS continues to invest in technologies that help operators grow while maintaining consistent performance and reliability.
SOFTSWISS will also share engineering insights at the upcoming Tech Race Summit, its technology conference focused on infrastructure architecture, cloud technologies, software delivery, and other challenges relevant to high-load digital businesses.
