Customer Profile
A tech–based, customer initiative and innovation company, the client is a relatively new startup that had just secured its first customer and had been scaling quickly. However, they struggled with slow and inconsistent deployment of their CI/ CD pipeline through GitHub. The Taos team decoupled the CI/CD process and established a streamlined workflow that has transformed the entire approach to deployment.
Accelerating the workflow
Previously, the company could spend upwards of a day to deliver an entire environment to the customer—and that’s if things ran smoothly. By eliminating all the manual steps they once relied on, their service–dependent process enables them to deploy software and app updates several times a day, practically at the click of a button.
Rapid Delivery for Transformative
Outcomes Taos established a proof of concept to meet their needs, all the way to building out the solution and production in less than three months. This included helping the client choose between Google Cloud Platform and Azure, making them understand how their security and compliance needs to be aligned better with GCP. We provided cutting–edge tech as well as comprehensive advisory and training for them to build on this service–based foundation.
Establishing a DevOps Mindset
The company had no dedicated DevOps engineers and admittedly had little direct experience with the whole DevOps side of their industry. With ad hoc training and working sessions, Taos introduced their experts to a better understanding of the architectural issues to give them more control over the technology they could now employ.
Results
The client is enjoying the ability to rapidly deliver software and app updates to customers without the previous labor–intensive oversight. Plus, they have been empowered to increase process repeatability and scale deployment as they gain more customers
