I am thrilled to share some exciting news with you all today. Akamas has successfully raised $10 million in our first institutional funding round, from United Ventures – one of Italy’s most prominent venture capital firms. This investment is not
Kubernetes optimization is easier said than done. The untold reality that we consistently find in the wild is that Kubernetes clusters are massively over-provisioned – average CPU usage at 5% or less – and at the same time, applications are
Learn from our three-year journey optimizing thousands of Kubernetes pods across multiple enterprise environments. In this Ignite episode, Stefano Doni and Mauro Pessina share the key lessons they discovered while maximizing application reliability and reducing cluster resource costs, challenging many common

This app brings Akamas optimization directly into Dynatrace, allowing customers
Explore how Sisal, a leading gaming operator with 35 million customers, achieved a 58% cost reduction for critical Kubernetes microservices using Akamas’ AI-powered optimization platform. The Challenge: Sisal needed to optimize Kubernetes microservices for maximum cost savings without impacting application
There is a “dark side” to Kubernetes that makes it difficult to ensure the desired performance and resilience of cloud-native applications, while also keeping their costs under control. Indeed, the combined effect of Kubernetes resource management mechanisms and application runtime heuristics may cause serious performance and resilience risks.
Akamas provides a single platform to optimize applications both in pre-production environments, for example to anticipate planned changes, cloud migration or chaos engineering scenarios, and directly live in production while applications are running under dynamically varying workloads.
