DevOps – Developer Support

DevOps/Development Operations is a methodology which stresses a close working relationship between IT departments and Development teams. The involved teams communicate, collaborate extensively and work together towards their goals. The goal of DevOps is ultimately to rapidly release software and services for an organization. With our wide knowledge and experience with various tools, we are easily able to integrate with both IT and Operations team. We understand the importance of effective communication, thorough integration and good collaboration between IT and development team. Using various tools like configuration management tools , task automation, imaging we standardize the development environment thus helping in faster release cycles. This gives the developer more control over the application and both the infrastructure and application are in sync. We support various technologies and services like Apache HTTPD, Nginx, MySQL, PostgresSQL, Postfix, Sendmail, Puppet, Heartbeat, Pacemaker/Corosync and many with which we are easily able to work with developers and system administrators equally.
