DevOps Enablement Strategy

DEVOPS BENEFITS

The most effective way to get ahead in your organization is by implementing a DevOps strategy, one that focuses on collaboration, communication and rapid feedback between software developers, testers and operations professionals.


DevOps strategy enables to automate the process of software delivery to production. This is achieved by incorporating techniques such as agile development, automated testing, continuous integration, and continuous delivery.


Your organization can see improved deployment frequency, quality, team productivity and architecture quality, while realizing faster business value. This can be achieved after applying development and operations techniques, tools, and principles across the entire delivery process.

Our Approach to DevOps..

Our team's approach involves looking at your business needs, your internal capabilities, and technology that is available technology.


We then tailor a development and operations strategy to meet the needs of each organization, and don’t prescribe a mandatory standard structure or tools for the organization.


In other words, we don’t bring you a solution in search of a problem.

..and our Moto

We achieve this by outlining tools and implementing governance, processes, and practices to create a DevOps framework and IT operating model

We understand that it takes an effort to shift your focus to achieve the goals of a DevOps culture by automating your software development and delivery pipeline. Experts in our team can help you implement DevOps by providing the following services: 

 

  • Assessments that would determine your organization’s existing maturity level and provide guidance on the value this approach can deliver


  • Design a process to ensure this approach can be managed and measured across the organization, including its many tools, platforms, culture, skills, and deployment models

  • Aligning existing architecture which focuses on incorporating legacy into this new model as well as new future development


  • DevOps governance which would ensure long expectancy of the approach by providing a coordinated set of processes and tools for the enterprise


  • DevOps tool chain selection and implementation. This ensures that a planned transformation ensues benefits are realized at an incremental pace 


  • Automated build and deployment tool implementation along with reliable automated testing at scale

A SUCCESS STORY

"A commercial client was unable to update their systems with modern features in a timely fashion. This led to an increase in customer complaints. Because of the unusual setting, the systems installed in the organization's facilities must be equipped with stable, and secure features."


The company realized they could deploy faster with better quality, and maintain their market leadership, by applying DevOps practices.

A Modern Software Solution to Solve Customer Complaints

As our client's partner, we helped them implement DevOps and Continuous Delivery practices. The activities included:


  • Our team devised code branching strategies to enable better feature release control.


  • Implemented leading-edge agile practices such as BDD using Cucumber.


  • Led DevOps testing and deployment using Docker and container methods

Strategy Implementation Results: Higher Quality Delivery, and Market Leadership

We tackled numerous aspects of DevOps across multiple projects:  


  1. Our team helped create a DevOps continuous delivery pipeline which include a trunk-based development version control strategy. This reduced the time between the developer writing code and reaching production, while reducing the number of defects across the system. Such practices immediately reduced the risk of code promotion conflicts.. One  of the client's team reduced their deployment time from a multi-day event to a 20-minute push action as our strategy automated, and sped up, the code merge process.
  2. Behavior Driven Design (BDD) improved the quality of the requirements elicitation process by reducing any ambiguity and focusing on real world scenarios. If everyone is aware of their roles and expectations this can reduce defects that are requirement based significantly
  3. End to end test automation was introduced by implementing BDD into the sprint boundary, greatly shortening feedback loops. Using containers allowed the teams to focus on developing within a common computing environment without concern for underlying hardware differences. Components that are tested is now what is released.

Using state of the art software practices allowed our client's company to deliver faster, with higher quality. Results from this DevOps transformation gave the company an edge, enabling it to remain a market leader.
