DevOps
What DevOps means to us
DevOps, an amalgamation of development and operations coined in 2009, is an integral practice in the modern business world. Its application significantly enhances collaboration between teams responsible for software development and IT operations, encouraging a culture of shared responsibility, seamless communication, and streamlined processes.
Adopting DevOps means breaking down traditional silos, fostering an environment where everyone is accountable for the overall project outcome, thus creating higher quality products in less time.
DevOps brings with it a culture of continuous monitoring and learning, leading to improved problem-solving and greater system reliability. Continuous feedback loops allow for the early detection and rectification of issues, reducing the time and cost associated with fixing errors. The shared knowledge and learning culture fostered by DevOps can ultimately boost employee morale, leading to improved productivity and innovation.
Why build a business around DevOps?
One primary aspect of DevOps is its ability to infuse automation into various stages of software development, such as testing, integration, delivery, and deployment, thereby promoting efficiency and consistency.
This continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline speeds up software release cycles and ensures that any code modifications are smoothly integrated into the existing system, reducing the chance of errors and downtime. The increased speed and reliability achieved through automation allow businesses to react more swiftly to market changes and customer needs, driving innovation and competitive advantage.
As the global software marketplace becomes more complex, crowded, competitive, demanding and fast-moving than ever, business would need to leverage the powerful differentiators provided by DevOps in order to scale up effectively. From the smallest start-up to the most mature enterprise company, the refrain was clear - move with the times, or risk being destroyed by them.
Releaseworks® means DevOps
Our Founder, Miiro Juuso, has been a vocal visionary, thought-leader and strategic practitioner in the DevOps space since 2012, building DevOps programs and developing operating models across various companies and organisations across Europe.
Through this, the realisation emerged that Agile software companies would need to implement DevOps principles to survive and thrive, or be left in the dust by their competitors. Drastic changes in short windows of time.
They would need to Get DevOps Right.
They would need to Build Better Software, Faster.
They would need to be shown What ‘Good’ Looks Like.
Releaseworks was founded in 2018 to provide dedicated DevOps-as-a-Service, alongside vision, strategy, roadmap and support, as a complete package within the singular thrust of DevOps - not as a traditional utility role alongside software development, but as a bold, unique entity bridging multiple disciplines.
