SOFTSWISS Deputy CTO Named Best in EMEA at the 2025 Oracle Excellence Awards

SOFTSWISS, a global tech company and leading provider of software solutions for the iGaming industry, announces that its Deputy Chief Technology Officer, Sergey Kastukevich, has been named CTO of the Year in EMEA at the 2025 Oracle Excellence Awards.
The Oracle Excellence Awards, organised by Oracle, the world’s second-largest software developer after Microsoft and the fourth-largest IT company globally, celebrate the best in business innovation. Â
The Award recognises Kastukevich as a CTO who strategically utilises emerging technologies to advance SOFTSWISS’ objectives, such as reducing operational costs, enhancing system stability, and developing transformative products that benefit both the company and the broader iGaming industry. With over 15 years of expertise, SOFTSWISS delivers high-performance, secure, and scalable platforms supporting more than 1,200 brands worldwide.
Past winners include Vodafone, Shiseido Company Limited, PayPal (NA), and other global enterprises.
Sergey Kastukevich on receiving the Award: “We take pride in our successful collaboration with Oracle OCI, which allows us to implement innovative projects with high reliability and security.
SOFTSWISS leverages a comprehensive suite of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) services to ensure performance, scalability, and security across its operationsâ€.
Among these services is OKE (Oracle Kubernetes Engine), which provides the scalability and flexibility needed for deploying containerised applications. To support critical workloads, SOFTSWISS uses high-performance VM Instances, delivering the necessary power for demanding tasks.
For secure and scalable data handling, Object Storage ensures reliable storage and fast access to essential information. The company also relies on Cloud Guard for continuous monitoring and automated threat response, maintaining a high level of protection for its cloud resources.
In managing and deploying containerised applications, SOFTSWISS benefits from a centralised Container Image Hub, simplifying the application lifecycle management. Lastly, using IAM (Identity and Access Management), the company enforces strict access controls, ensuring robust security at every level of the infrastructure.
“Thanks to these tools, our collaboration with Oracle OCI allows us to build highly available and scalable solutions that meet the highest security and efficiency standards. We are confident that the joint use of cloud technologies fosters the development of innovative projects and the optimisation of our clients’ business processes,” continued S. Kastukevich.
Sergey joined SOFTSWISS as Deputy CTO in 2020 and has since played a key role in expanding the tech team, establishing strong internal processes, and shaping the company’s long-term technological vision. He focuses not only on solving complex engineering challenges but also on supporting people, building scalable systems, and empowering top talent to thrive.
Recognition at this prestigious Award in a region where SOFTSWISS conducts business is a significant achievement and a testament to the company’s leadership.
The SOFTSWISS team will be available to discuss technology solutions for the iGaming business at SiGMA Americas in São Paulo, Brazil, from 7 to 10 April.
