What the company needed

Years of technical debt was limiting the company’s ability to match the speed and efficiency of competitors coming onto the market.

To stay competitive, the company needed to speed up development, rethink their architecture, and change their overall development philosophy.

Our recommendation

  • Deployed containers to allow developers to iterate and deploy software several times a day.
  • Created a technology stack capable of handling the very large data sets the company relied upon.
  • Designed racks to deploy infrastructure at rack scale and achieve efficiency with CICD automation.

The end result

Through these recommendations, along with an overall shift toward a DevOps culture, the company was able to:

  • Greatly increase efficiency

    in how they brought new products to market.

  • Innovate more freely

    with the ability to quickly roll back software if problem occurred.

  • Better store and manage data

    and increase their competitiveness in the market.
