Akamai, a global leader in cloud computing and content delivery, faced a critical challenge: ensuring a seamless, gradual migration from Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) to Linode while maintaining service continuity, security, and cost efficiency. Traditional approaches such as service meshes like Istio had proven to be overly complex and cumbersome for their needs.
The Akamai team needed a solution that could:
Akamai turned to KubeSlice, a cloud-native overlay network, for its ability to provide seamless multi-cloud connectivity. The team, led by Giuseppe Virzi and working closely with Avesha’s KubeSlice experts, embarked on deploying KubeSlice to connect their AKS clusters to Linode

By implementing KubeSlice, Akamai successfully enabled cost-effective, seamless, and gradual migration from Azure to Linode. The experience highlights KubeSlice’s potential as a developer-friendly, transparent, and highly scalable solution for hybrid and multi-cloud environments. As the project scales, Akamai expects to establish KubeSlice as a standard for all gradual migrations across their organization.
