Devops Consulting

With ‘agile’ becoming the preferred application development methodology worldwide, it is vital to have swift and frequent deployments for an early business value understanding. While handling legacy systems has always been challenging, varied hybrid solutions have now started upending established business models. ‘Continuous DevOps’ enables businesses to be more agile with greater speed and creativity. Making DevOps an integral part of the software delivery lifecycle is not just a smart strategy but a necessary one.

Our DevOps experts architect innovative solutions that help organizations improve the performance and the value of their business through the alignment of business objectives and DevOps technologies. Our 5-Day DevOps Maturity Assessment will help assess your current state of DevOps maturity and address hurdles pertaining to development, deployment, and sustenance.

 

What we do?

Analysis & Strategy Formulation

Analyze organization’s current system workflows and propose new solutions with POCs. We designed the Enterprise Assessment of DevOps Capabilities (ADOC) for organizations who want to baseline multiple teams’ current DevOps state. They can then measure and accelerate continuous improvement during their DevOps journey.

Transformation

Develop the next generation of ‘build platform’, including automatic deployment to target environment, and configuration management. Operations Create and maintain the ‘build farm’, including the ‘build pipeline’ for Dev, ST, UAT and prod environment, and ITSM tool integration.

Optimization 

Optimize existing architecture with refactoring, modularization, containerization and integration with your core development products.

 

 

 

Vital Challenges of ‘Assessment for DevOps Capability’ in moving to DevOps

  • Data – Without assessing your current situation, it is not possible to assess the improvement towards any future state. Therefore, you must be data driven from the inception.
  • Constrictions – The challenge is that the leaders must comprehend and prioritise constrictions. The constraints arise often ‘in flight’. These unanticipated events can hinder the progress.
  • Synchronicity – Where silos be present in any organisation, the end-to-end system vision is missing. Without any strategy which synchronizes the change for Process, Culture, Technology and People, the advancement will be disorganized and slow than required.

How we can assist you?

Outline

DevOps continuous delivery is sweeping your industry, enabling new levels of agility, stability, efficiency, quality, security, and satisfaction.  All enterprises must embrace DevOps or risk extinction.  Yet the road to DevOps with continuous delivery is far from easy.  The journey is fraught with risks if not guided objectively and expertly.

Do you and your team have a clear understanding or what DevOps means to your organization? Do you know, precisely, how to accomplish DevOps Three Ways — continuous flow, continuous feedback, or continuous improvement?  Do you have precise and measurable DevOps goals?  What is the current state of your DevOps practices relative to good and emerging industry practices?  What is your value stream current state and desired next future state?  Do you have a clear roadmap that will get you to your future state effectively?

If you do not have a crystal-clear answer to any of these questions, then you should consider engaging Edustanza for Assessment services.
