DevOps is a culture and practice that combines software development (development/Dev) and IT operations (operations/Ops) to improve collaboration and automation of software development processes and stable operations. The goal is to deliver software faster, more reliably and with higher quality.
DevOps typically includes continuous integration, continuous delivery, automation of tests and deployments, and monitoring and feedback. It promotes an agile way of working that creates the most efficient development possible.
DevOps gives your business the tools and methods to improve time-to-market while minimising risk and reducing costs. A well-defined way of working helps manage risk in an organisation where change is inevitable.
If your business needs to make frequent changes to the tools that support the business, DevOps is an essential part of your daily practice, whether your developers are internal or external.
In software development and configuration, DevOps is necessary as it integrates essential phases such as strategy, coding, testing, release, deploy, operations and monitoring. Even if you do not have in-house developers, you can still play a role in planning, testing and quality assurance or release management. This ensures continuous release and optimisation of working methods and support systems.
To achieve transparency in the system landscape, one solution is to integrate components such as Datadog for monitoring. This makes it possible to understand and resolve any issues or errors quickly.
For organisations with frequent changes in development and operational processes, or facing demands that require new technical solutions, it makes sense to take a close look at working methods and DevOps. The same applies if you both develop and operate software with multiple employees or external developers involved in continuous changes.
For us, DevOps and Way of Work are an integral part of our approach, which are always present but rarely articulated as the fundamental task.
We offer both consulting and execution, where we assess the existing process and help automate and improve speed, troubleshooting capacity and documentation.
Our experience shows that a high level of ambition within DevOps is necessary to avoid wasted time and achieve effective automation.
Selected cases
Selection of technologies we work with
Azure DevOps is a suite of development tools from Microsoft that supports the entire software development cycle. Azure DevOps integrates easily with other Microsoft services and enables teams to automate workflows, deploy solutions quickly, and ensure high quality in their DevOps work.
Atlassian offers a range of tools that are essential for effective collaboration and project management in DevOps environments. Tools like Jira, Confluence, Bamboo, and Bitbucket help organise tasks, documentation, and code management. Atlassian enables teams to collaborate seamlessly, plan work, and ensure that development and operations are closely integrated throughout the software development process.
An important part of our delivery method is our own documentation model. The model has two main purposes: to support the development and maintenance of a system and to create a clear, built-in line of ownership between us and our customer. We consider documentation an integral part of the delivery of a project and not an afterthought.
