Increase Developer Happiness with Devops Services and Managed IT Services

Summary

By implementing a world class devops program with managed IT services, your developers will become a profit center. They will ship better software, faster.

About Us

Over the past 10 years, we've had the honor and privilege of working with some truly inspiring people. These professionals have made it their personal mission in life to positively impact others through technology and software solutions. Gennovacap’s team has been a part of this journey, shipping software for technology companies. Our team of engineers built out a world class devops consulting firm based on a set of market validated devops best practices.

Devops Services + Managed IT Services = Developer Happiness

We’ve seen tech companies become successful and consequently hit growing pains because their devops strategies lacked depth and features. Their ability to scale was limited only by their ability to quickly release features. However, once they implemented a fundamental devops program, they were able to rocket their product to the moon.

Furthermore, we’ve seen companies who implement amazing devops programs only to leave their software engineers fixing Kubernetes crashes. As a result, it’s advantageous to add managed IT services with a site reliability engineer after implementing the devops program.

By implementing a world class devops program with managed IT services, your developers will become a profit center. They will ship better software, faster.

Benefits of Devops Services

Transform Operations

The benefits of great devops services are real and measurable. Companies that incorporate our devops best practices get more done, period. Devops focused organizations can deliver quality products with speed, functionality, and innovation. Here are some devops stats:

63% experience improvement in the quality of their software deployments
63% release new software more frequently
55% notice improved cooperation and collaboration
38% report a higher quality of code production

Make Developers Happier

There is enormous waste in a typical IT environment. IT can be a huge productivity killer for your engineering team:

Developers waiting for other engineers
Developers waiting on other machines
Developers stuck repeatedly with the same IT issues

Developers want to be productive. They want to spend time writing new features, but are left churning over IT issues causing frustration and unhappiness. When developers get rid of managed IT infrastructure, they can spend that time adding value to the organization and everyone benefits.

Automate Business

Automated deployments and standardized production environments, make feature releases and products more predictable. Automation also frees people from routine repetitive tasks to focus on higher value things.

Benefits of Managed IT Services

Reduced Costs

By outsourcing your IT to a managed IT services company, you control and reduce costly network maintenance staff. Staffing an IT department is expensive and unnecessary for businesses with simple networks. Outsourcing to a managed IT services provider like Gennovacap can save you thousands each year.

Fast Response

With Managed IT Services you can expect quick response times through enterprise-level monitoring (SLA’s). Additionally, you’ll receive fast assistance for spinning cloud services up or down. Gennovacap’s SRE’s can access, monitor and repair any network issues within minutes of each incident.

Operational Scalability

Managed IT service providers offer a variety of managed IT options that scale with your business. Occasionally, managed IT providers offer payment plans, enabling your business to focus on growth. The best managed IT service providers offer a combined solution, which produces more cost savings. These combined solutions may include security protection, network monitoring or the setup of a new service area.

Our SRE’s will consistently monitor your cloud spend and work with our devops engineers to optimize your costs.

Training

We will also document the entire playbook and runbook into a wiki. In the wiki we will include:

Architecture Designs
Component configuration
CLI with local ops development environment
Terraform commands
Developer Tools
How to install
Usage commands
Troubleshooting issues
CI/CD Process

Additionally, we will spend 30-45 days training your engineering team on how to use Kubernetes, manage deployments, and educate them on the infrastructure.

Incident Response

After the program is in place, we will embed a site reliability engineer with your team to perform the following tasks:

Weekly maintenance of cloud systems
Support team on weekly deployments
Day-to-day management of your infrastructure
On-demand provisioning for common cloud resources
Scheduled maintenance of OS updates and patches, backup policies, service-level backups, and cross-region replication.
