Our Tech Stack

• We leverage microservices heavily from day one of Whalebone, there is no legacy system. We containerize everything using Docker and orchestrate it through Kubernetes.
•  We avoid cloud vendor lock-in and minimize the usage of any cloud provider-specific services. Our backend can be moved to any managed Kubernetes provider instantly.
