DevOps

Increasing companies governance

With comprehensive, continuous delivery we are increasing the governance and other capabilities with COPADO and other DevOps platforms

Using Agile methodology in our project delivery, we can address the communication gaps between customers (the business group) and developers. In a similar way, with DevOps as a service, we can focus on the deployment of developed software whether it was developed in Agile or other methodologies.

DevOps as a Service

As many organizations adapt DevOps and migrate their apps to the cloud, so too will their tools used in software development, testing, and deployment processes, effectively making continuous delivery itself a managed cloud service. DevOps is intended to be cross-functional requiring that we use different sets of tools rather than one single solution.

Arcsona believes Copado is the first/best solution for DevOps in the Salesforce.com platform. Still, we can also work with a variety of tools at each key aspect of the development and delivery process in other applications:

Coding – code development and review, source code management tools, code merging
Building – continuous integration tools, build status
Packaging – artifact repository, application pre-deployment staging
Releasing – change management, release approvals, release automation
Configuring – infrastructure configuration and management, infrastructure as code tools
Monitoring – applications performance monitoring, end-user experienceS

A focus on DevOps provides many benefits:
  • Helps break barriers and silos within the IT department
  • Eliminates redundant processes in systems development
  • Developed systems move to production more rapidly
  • Enhanced collaboration between developers and operations, resulting in higher quality products and services
  • Less time in troubleshooting and fixing bugs and vulnerabilities
  • Competitive advantage over companies that use longer and more traditional development methodologies
  • Ability to better manage unplanned work

For Arcsona, DevOps is a culture, a movement, a philosophy. It is a partnership between development and operations that emphasizes a change in mentality, better collaboration and closer integration.
