Our clients say

Together with Itransition, we completed multiple projects successfully. Itransition’s experts also helped us improve our DevOps processes and activities. For instance, they worked on the entire infrastructure in AWS CloudFormation and Terraform to streamline deployments and enabled multi-region infrastructure to achieve low latency in each region whilst also delivering Remote Support to our customers located worldwide. Itransition’s specialists reconfigured the build process which resulted in a 3x reduction to the build time.

AWS DevOps tools we use

Our AWS-certified DevOps engineers will help your enterprise identify and deploy the most suitable tools from Amazon’s extensive tech array to fully embrace DevOps practices and AWS Well-Architected Framework’s design principles.

Continuous integration & delivery

Our team implements tools such as AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodePipeline, and AWS CodeStar to automate and merge app building, testing, and deployment phases into a single, ongoing workflow to deliver incremental code changes, facilitate early bug discovery and fixing, and enable faster release cycles.

Distributed services

We use Amazon Elastic Container Service, AWS EKS and various AWS Managed Services to configure AWS-based software solutions built on top of a microservice architecture, namely a range of small services running independently and focusing on specific processes which ensure scalability and cost optimization.

Infrastructure as code

Itransition relies on Amazon's IaC tools like AWS CloudFormation and AWS OpsWorks to automate, using code and development techniques, the provisioning and configuration management of the infrastructure and servers where your app will be deployed.

Security & monitoring

We implement tools like Amazon CloudWatch and AWS CloudTrail to analyze logs, identify anomalies, and monitor the application's code and infrastructure’s performance via real-time analytics to strengthen security, track the impact of updates, and provide developers with timely feedback. We can also introduce AWS Security Hub or GuardDuty to automatically accumulate security tools’ alerts and findings and thus simplify their remediation.

Serverless

Itransition's DevOps team uses specialized resources like AWS Amplify, AWS DynamoDB and AWS Lambda to set up and deploy serverless databases, dynamically scaling to match your needs. With a serverless infrastructure in place, you can develop software applications focusing solely on business logics and current needs.

AWS DevOps payoffs

Itransition uses the AWS toolkit to help you tap into and further amplify the cost optimization, product delivery, and security benefits offered by the DevOps methodology.

Fast adoption
AWS provides necessary out-of-the-box applications that are ready for deployment without extensive setup. This allows enterprises to tap into the concept of DevOps and its benefits faster and mitigate technical issues that can arise throughout software installation.
Task automation
AWS DevOps helps enterprises shift from ineffective manual operations to accurate, digitized processes smoothly. For instance, you can use Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) to automatically distribute network traffic across several appliances. You can also use integrations between AWS Services and open-source automation servers like AWS CodePipeline and Jenkins to streamline software testing and deployment.
Superior scalability
AWS DevOps infrastructure can easily scale on demand. This advantage allows enterprises to quickly access all storage and computing resources when necessary. They can also leverage auto-scaling by using tools such as AWS CodeCommit or AWS CodeCatalyst that help host and manage private code repositories and scale web apps, respectively.
Top security
AWS provides reliable DevSecOps tools for access management and data encryption, helping enterprises ensure the security of their DevOps infrastructures. In particular, companies can use AWS Identity Center and AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) features to define access levels for users, thus improving the security of corporate data.
Wide ecosystem
The AWS DevOps ecosystem includes dozens of powerful tools covering a wide range of business needs. If these tools are not enough, enterprises can use a rich selection of third-party software that complements the default AWS range. Enterprises can adopt these third-party tools to package their solutions into containers and host them in the Kubernetes ecosystem or utilize managed services for delivering enterprise-grade alternatives to open-source software.
Flexible & transparent pricing
Another essential advantage of AWS DevOps is that Amazon offers businesses a pay-as-you-go model with no upfront costs and long-term obligations. In addition, enterprises can use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate the cost of implementing each AWS DevOps tool based on its specific use case, as well as cost control tools after they’re adopted.

FAQ

What is the difference between DevOps and AWS DevOps?

Similarly to traditional DevOps, AWS DevOps focuses on bringing development and operations together and streamlining the software development process. However, AWS DevOps is built around specific practices, tools, and technologies provided by Amazon.

What are some challenges of adopting DevOps in AWS?

Moving from legacy to next-gen architectures is one of the biggest challenges when implementing and managing AWS DevOps. Fortunately, enterprises can address this issue with the help of professional AWS consultants.

Which AWS certifications to look for in an AWS DevOps Consultancy?

AWS Certified DevOps Engineer is one of the most critical certifications for an AWS DevOps Consultant. Also, a professional and well-rounded consultant should have some additional qualifications, like AWS Solution Architect and AWS Cloud Practitioner.
