DevOps as a Service

You have a game-changing idea to bring to market, but are your internal teams and processes able to bring it to life in an efficient and coordinated manner? DevOps, quite literally the combination of software “development” and IT “operations,” aims to marry the two traditionally siloed workstreams. DevOps automates processes to increase efficiency, and ramps up testing to identify and correct issues quickly through constant iteration. A well-implemented DevOps pipeline can transform the way your organization gets work done, with far-reaching benefits for your business. 

By fostering cross-team collaboration and automation under the model of continuous integration or continuous deployment (CI/CD), DevOps encourages testing often throughout the development process to deliver quality software more quickly, whether you’re going to market with a new product or releasing a new version with new features, fixes, or updates. Our company’s DevOps consulting experts offer a transformative, holistic approach to the software delivery lifecycle ideally-suited for organizations that have embraced the agile methodology.

Build and Refine Your DevOps Pipeline

By testing early and often, teams are able to work faster and more efficiently with improved communication and collaboration across the entire organization. DevOps practices include automation and CI/CD workflow to identify issues early on and prevent bumps from becoming mountains.

Is your development process missing something? When a bug is identified, does correcting and re-releasing cause a bottleneck or suck up an undue amount of your developers’ time? What about operations? Do you find your teams are siloed, and sometimes communication and collaboration is less than ideal? DevOps transforms the traditional way of doing things, replacing it with a method designed for today’s agile world. A DevOps pipeline allows code to go through rigorous, automated, and ongoing testing efficiently leading to time and cost savings for your organization.

Automate And Communicate

Traditionally, development and operations are disparee departments with limited collaboration. Creating a strong DevOps pipeline will help streamline communications across these departments and throughout the entire software lifecycle, and allow the two teams to work in tandem to increase efficiency. Improved – and in many cases automated – communication provides the critical feedback needed to identify bugs, issues or vulnerabilities early, and address them before they become larger problems. DevOps isn’t just a process; it’s a culture shift for your entire organization.

Go To Market Faster

A major component of DevOps is automation, and the refinement of processes to automate previously-manual tasks surrounding the testing and writing of code. By decreasing the time it takes to complete these tasks and increasing the frequency at which they are done (shoretning the cycle), it’s possible to identify issues early and correct them more quickly. From this business side, this means less time to market with your new product or the latest release, keeping customers happy with and offering the quality they expect. It also means less risk for your business in the long run, and an ability to respond and adapt more quickly to market changes.

Reduce Costs

Identifying issues early on in the development process means less time is lost to fixing bugs or problems with the code. Time is money, so the more time your organization can save the more control you have over your project’s budget. A DevOps pipeline allows you to optimize how you get work done, and reallocate time and funds towards creating new features or designing your next innovative product. Building a DevOps pipeline also allows you to better measure ROI, too.

Strengthen Security From The Start

Good DevOps inherently involves good security. DevOps bakes in security at all stages of the software lifecycle, right from the very start. With DevOps, security is a central component to development rather than an afterthought; it’s a product requirement and part of the standard testing procedures. Because security checks occur auoatmailly, security cannot be forgotten or overlooked, and increased collaboration and transparency keeps security top-of-mind. Automating and building-in processes around security and testing ensures infrastructure security in compliance with requirements, and creation of a safe and trusted product. And, due to DevOps’ iterative nature, if security issues do arise they can be quickly identified and fixed.
