DevOps Consulting Services

Initial improvements can be delivered within 4-6 weeks—typically a basic CI/CD pipeline and infrastructure automation for a pilot project. A comprehensive transformation covering multiple teams, applications, and environments typically takes 3-6 months. We recommend starting small, demonstrating value, and expanding incrementally rather than attempting a big-bang transformation.

The best tool depends on your existing ecosystem. For GitHub-centric teams, GitHub Actions provides tight integration. GitLab CI/CD offers excellent all-in-one capabilities. Azure DevOps integrates well with Microsoft environments. Jenkins remains popular for complex, customized pipelines. We evaluate your requirements and recommend tools that fit your team's skills and workflows.

Yes. Kubernetes consulting is one of our core offerings. We help with cluster architecture, managed Kubernetes (EKS, GKE, AKS), Helm chart development, GitOps workflows with ArgoCD or Flux, service mesh implementation, and container security. We can start with containerizing existing applications or optimizing existing Kubernetes environments.

DevOps as a Service provides ongoing DevOps expertise without hiring full-time staff. You get dedicated engineers who maintain your pipelines, respond to incidents, implement improvements, and provide 24/7 coverage. It's ideal for organizations that need DevOps capabilities but don't have the team size to justify multiple full-time DevOps hires.

We implement IaC using Terraform, AWS CDK, Pulumi, or CloudFormation based on your cloud platform and team preferences. Our approach includes modular code organization, remote state management, environment promotion strategies, policy-as-code for compliance, and integration with your CI/CD pipelines for automated infrastructure deployments.

We focus on the four DORA metrics: deployment frequency, lead time for changes, change failure rate, and mean time to recovery. Additionally, we track pipeline success rates, infrastructure drift, security scan results, and cost optimization opportunities. Dashboards are set up so you have visibility into your delivery performance.

Yes. We have experience implementing DevOps in healthcare (HIPAA), financial services (PCI-DSS, SOX), and government (FedRAMP) environments. Compliance requirements are built into pipeline designs—audit logging, change management gates, separation of duties, and automated compliance scanning. DevOps and compliance are complementary when designed properly.

We can either provide fully managed DevOps services or train your team while implementing. Our knowledge transfer approach includes documentation, runbooks, pair programming sessions, and workshops. Many clients start with heavier consultant involvement and gradually transition to internal ownership as their team builds skills.

Secrets management is critical to pipeline security. We implement solutions like HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or Azure Key Vault integrated with your CI/CD platform. Secrets are never stored in code repositories. Pipelines retrieve credentials at runtime with appropriate access controls and audit logging.
