How can you improve and accelerate your software development delivery?

Organizations across every industry are focused on developing their software more rapidly, with improved quality and reduced risk. Dramatically improve your time-to-value for new business ideas with DevOps, a software development framework that removes friction and organizational silos that are slowing down software delivery cycles, improves quality, and ultimately allows an organization to react faster to opportunities.

Consider these questions:

• Are you able to deliver software projects at the speed and quality the business expects?
• Are you struggling with implementing or scaling Agile?
• Are you leveraging software development automation like testing and build/release/deploy, or are you doing those things manually?
• Are you able to quickly and efficiently provision operational environments and platforms, or do teams wait weeks or longer to have those requests fulfilled?
• Are you interested in Containerization, but lack in-house experience?

The answer is DevOps

Depending on your answers, your organization may be an ideal candidate for adopting DevOps practices. As enterprises make the shift to agile, cloud-enabled organizations, there is a clear need for strategic migration approaches and strategies.

Sirius offers expert resources for the entire DevOps life cycle. We offer a full-service DevOps program that includes consulting, software, infrastructure, and operations solutions and services to help clients develop their software more rapidly, with higher quality and less risk.

Best-in-class companies leverage scalable processes and automation that enable their people to deliver higher quality products and services than the competition. This concept is true even more so for software development. Unfortunately, many companies are not built to do so, relying on monolithic systems, legacy waterfall processes, and a reliance on far too much manual work This is why we developed the Agile Software Factory.

An Agile Software Factory consists of three key components:

1. Lean/agile culture, organizational design & funding, and flow of work
2. Loosely coupled containerized architecture & infrastructure
3. Extensive CI/CD, quality, security, and operations automation

The result is increased business value, via features & functionality delivered at a much faster pace, much higher customer and employee satisfaction, with far fewer defects and security vulnerabilities. Contact us to learn more about building an Agile Software Factory at your organization.

Many organizations are facing time-to-market challenges, high operational costs and managing complexity. Modernizing your applications can align your IT spend while driving more business value by helping you:

• Move from monolithic apps and databases: Transition to cloud-native architecture and implement a common model based on containers and microservices
• Innovate and leverage investments: Understand when to refactor, replace, move, or maintain existing apps with data
• Eliminate organizational silos: Adopt a high-performance agile culture, leveraging DevOps & DataOps methodologies to achieve continuous delivery

It’s possible to optimize your existing applications, create apps faster, improve the customer experience and reduce costs. Not sure where to start? Our Modernization Assessment can help identify opportunities to reduce IT cost by evaluating your current applications and platforms to determine the necessary steps for modernization.

We can help you achieve success for cloud-based modernization initiatives, and work with you to develop a digital business adoption strategy. With dedicated resources spanning virtually all software development disciplines, we have the expertise and support you need.

One of our most popular services is our Sirius DevOps Assessment, which provides efficient methods to evaluate your software development life cycle. Our consultants will identify bottlenecks and impediments to quality, productivity and delivery across the entire DevOps life cycle and IT stack and provide recommendations that will reduce time-to-market, improve quality, and mitigate risk. Outputs may include current state analysis, prioritized high-value areas of improvement, recommended end-states, end-to-end software development value stream mapping, best practices assessments, risk assessments, and implementation roadmaps.
