Building a "DevOps Center of Excellence" to Evangelize Consistency and Best Practices Across Technology Teams

When a leading mobile messaging and customer experience agency recognized there was an opportunity to reduce the infrastructure provisioning time of its internal ticketing system for customers, it turned to Redapt for help with the project. 

In a nutshell

1
The problem

Attempting to reduce infrastructure provisioning time for its customers, the platform services team of this major mobile messaging and customer experience agency engaged Redapt to recommend and implement a strategic platform and tools that would replace a sluggish and outdated manual ticketing system.

2
The solution

The Redapt team proposed AWS as the client's new cloud platform, HashiCorp Terraform for provisioning automation, and selected Metrics Collection (a sophisticated infrastructure service) as a deployment reference architecture.

3
The outcome

Redapt's team of experts crafted a modernized "DevOps Center of Excellence," using the Metric Collection as and example of how Terraform was used to reduce the client's infrastructure provisioning time. The newly built DevOps COE helped the client's platform services team champion DevOps adoption across the organization.
