IT Infrastructure Automated

We codify IT Environments from Server Provisioning to Application Delivery, preparing Organizations for IT Automation.

TOOLS WE USE


Jenkins

Ansible

AWS CloudFormation

Powershell

Most environments are setup in 3 phases.

1

Server Provisioning

New resources such as Virtual Machines (VM) are created, patched and ready for use.

2

Server Configuration

VMs are added to the network, file shares configured, features (IIS) enabled, databases installed, firewall rules applied, and more.

3

Application Delivery

Application pools configured, folder permissions secured, database credentials added, application deployed, and more.

The problem. Companies only automate a single phase.

DevOps tools have been mostly used for automating Application Delivery. But other phases are neglected, leading to problems when an environment needs to be re-created or configured, requiring manual work that leads to human error and repeatable-work of standing up a duplicate environment.

To fill the gap, VM Templates, Snapshots, and Images are used to restore a VM in a configured state. However, this results in a history of changes lost and creates a culture of resisting Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and Configuration as Code (CaC) practices.

DevOps tools can also be applied for Server Configuration as well as Application Delivery but are not implemented.



Start with an Automation Pipeline your team can build on.

Deploy a pre-built pipeline that automates Server Provisioning, Server Configuration and Application Delivery of a sample Microsoft .NET Application with a SQL Server database from environment scripted code.

Code is extended and configured to fit your environment. We work with your team to understand the environment and help you automate it.

Everyone Benefits

  • Environment Consistency: Ensure your team is developing and testing in environments that have the same configurations as Production.
  • Transperancy: Human readable YAML script files allow all teams to understand an environment's configuration and compare it to previous versions.
  • Risk Reduction: Reduce the possibility of human error with consistency.
  • Knowledge Retention: As employees leave so does the knowledge and configuration of an environment. Have scripted procedures that are documented, version controlled and accessible.
  • Cross-Team Collaboration: Teams can view, edit and comment on an infrastructure or configuration change before it is applied.
  • Increased Efficiency: Allow your Developers to launch their own sandbox environments for development. Provide QA with multiple environments that run parallel tests.
  • Cost Savings: Have your engineers spend less time performing manual configuration work and more time on higher-value tasks.
