宜信是中国领先的金融科技企业集团，为个人客户、企业和初创企业提供多种贷款和理财服务。 公司以“宜人宜己，美好生活”为使命，致力于利用大数据金融云、物联网等技术，快速开发创新产品和服务。 在过去的12年里，随着公司的成长，它建立在VMWare Vsphere之上的传统大块头正在艰难地追赶。该公司想要解决的挑战有很多：应用程序在线花费的时间太长，而且很难确保环境的一致性。应用程序具有复杂的生命周期管理，具有多个生产和构建环境。自动缩放和快速开发是不可能的。最重要的是，使用的商业软件非常昂贵。容器云架构师陈晓宇表示：“在当前的互联网环境下，开发和交付的长周期是不合适的。” 拥抱微服务、容器化和持续交付使得“更快地完成产品迭代、发现问题和更早地解决问题成为可能，”晓宇说。但是，由于生产环境中有成千上万个容器，宜信需要一个管理系统，该系统还提供应用程序监视服务，如调用链跟踪和网络监视，以及一组支持多种语言的CI/CD系统。 在考虑了许多技术之后，宜信团队选择Kubernetes进行编排。“Kubernetes在整体架构、设计理念和社区活动方面是最好的，”晓宇说。另外，“Kubernetes由CNCF托管是非常重要的，CNCF保证了Kubernetes的中立性，这意味着它不与商业供应商绑定。对Kubernetes的跨行业投资促进了该技术的发展。” 宜信团队在迁移微服务运行在Kubernetes，已经节省了大量时间。“通过将微服务打包到容器中并使用Kubernetes，可以更快地完成应用程序更新和回滚，”晓宇说。在整个大型应用程序中，不再存在由一小段错误代码引起停机的风险。 “目前的产品迭代越来越快，因为在线交付在最短的时间内完成。” — 陈晓宇，宜信容器云架构师 “因为不同的团队可以负责不同的服务，他们可以更快地完成产品的迭代和更新，而不需要等待整个项目的发布，”晓宇补充道：“容器集群支持公司的大部分业务场景，因此，一方面，提高了开发和交付效率，另一方面，节省了商业软件的成本。” 除了Kubernetes，宜信平台还使用其它CNCF技术，包括Prometheus、Helm和Harbor。“我们使用容器镜像存储库Harbor，它在clair中执行镜像扫描，Helm作容器部署，Docker作运行时，Flannel作网络插件以及NFS作共享存储。”晓宇说。 “因为不同的团队可以负责不同的服务，他们更快地完成产品的迭代和更新，而不是等待整个项目的发布。” — 陈晓宇，宜信容器云架构师 对于其他考虑云原生架构和实践的公司，晓宇有这样的建议：“他们需要相关技术人员的参与，他们应该使用社区活动最高的项目，这样任何问题都可以及时得到解决。” 有了这两件事，宜信已经成功地过渡到云原生。“当前的产品迭代越来越快，因为在线交付在最短的时间内完成，”晓宇说：“Kubernetes将继续推动和支持公司未来更多的业务场景。”
