VSK completed migration to the domestic Kubernetes platform "Steering Wheel"

2023: Marlin Microservice Application Migration to Steering Wheel Platform

The company Laboratory Numerator"" and High Digital Technology"" (VCT), its own IT company, FRS implemented migration Marlin Microservice Application to the domestic container management platform. " Steering wheel This Strakhova was announced by the VSK House on May 10, 2023.

Insurance House VSK according to the results of 2022 entered the top 5 insurers of the Russian Federation (fees for insurance of property of legal entities amounted to 7.3 billion rubles, for mortgage insurance - 6.3 billion rubles; the volume of payments to customers in 2022 amounted to more than 37.9 billion rubles).

In 2022, VSK introduced the Digital Clinic technological service and implemented the integration of Europrotocol online into its own VSK Insurance mobile application.

To implement IT projects, VSK uses the Marlin microservice platform, which automates routine operations and frees up developer resources for writing code. Number of routine operations in 2022 was reduced by 48%, with the number of microservices used increasing more than 3-fold - from 201 to 667.

For the stable operation of Marlin, the VTsT team chose a domestic solution for managing containers - the Steering Wheel platform. The key criteria for choosing were: a domestic product with support from the vendor, functionality at the level of world analogues. The Steering Wheel platform was rated as the most reliable on-premium platform for the operation of containerized applications, meeting the requirements of availability and information security.

As a result of the project, we confirmed the compatibility of two solutions. Partnership with the "Laboratory Numerator" will allow us to present a comprehensive product for the market. At VSK, we received a high result - the introduction of Marlin made it possible to standardize approaches to development and reduce its cost by 50%, - said Denis Khadaskov, commercial director of High Digital Technologies.

The "wheel" allows you to automate routine operations when operating Kubernetes clusters and reduce the time-to-market of new products. The purpose of this software is to reduce downtime risks and system maintenance costs. According to the results of the project "Laboratory Numerator" and "High Digital Technologies" they will offer a joint solution to the market with the necessary level of support, - said Maria Belyaeva, director of product development at "Laboratory Numerator."

Sharing Marlin and Steering Wheel products allows developers to be responsible for writing code without being distracted by other tasks. This solution scales not only in the insurance sector, but also in companies in other industries with a large number of development teams and strict time-to-market requirements.
