Efficient, Easy And Effective: DevOps With Cloud Kinetics

Key Takeaways

  • Multi-account architecture reduces your attack surface and limits damage if a breach occurs.
  • AWS Control Tower’s “define once and use across” approach sets up a secure, compliant multi-account environment in hours.
  • Plan traffic in three layers: inspect ingress, egress and East-West traffic separately using a centralized firewall and NAT gateway.
  • Use a dedicated Test OU to validate Service Control Policies before applying them to production workloads.
  • Centralize all logs: VPC, firewall and DNS in a “Log Archive” account and feed them into a SIEM for real-time threat detection.

DevOps is a process that truly leverages and synthesizes automation and cloud adoption. It ensures rapid on-boarding of applications by automating end-to-end delivery pipeline and facilitating continuous integration and development across leading cloud platforms. DevOps also accelerate cloud operations and workloads by minimizing costs, increasing efficiency, enabling agile development, and speeding up the release management cycle.

Why DevOps for our customers

Our Enterprise DevOps consulting services help organizations achieve higher efficiency in Development and Operations, quicker time to market, rapid delivery, reliable and better quality of software builds. With early identification of emerging development issues, always let the code be in a releasable state with minimal effort and automating the process. And incorporating all DevOps capabilities and cultures: collaboration, automation, continuous integration, continuous delivery, continuous testing, monitoring, and rapid remediation.

DevOps benefits your organization in many ways:

  • Increased efficiency among IT groups

CI/CD Tools Canvas

DevOps is a method of build and deploying applications, it requires the right IT team and right tools to create. Generally, for the DevOps practice, we rely on the CI/CD pipelines, containers, and cloud-native tools. And can be extended to open source, proprietary, or supported distributions of open source technology.

Code repository – Code repositories enable multiple developers to work on code coupled with version control enabled. Tools used for source code management include AWS CodeCommit, and opensource tools such as Git and GitHub.

CI/CD pipelines – The continuous integration tool initializes CI-CD processes to create, test, and validate code in a shared repository. Mostly automating the manual work. Tools used for CI/CD pipelines include AWS CodePipeline and opensource tools such as Jenkins.

Continuous delivery – extends the automatic steps through production-level tests and configuration setups for release management. Tools used for continuous delivery include a combination of AWS CodePipeline & AWS CodeBuild and opensource tools such as Jenkins.

Continuous Deployment – Invoking tests, configuration, and provisioning, as well as monitoring and potential rollback capabilities. Tools used for continuous delivery include AWS CodeDeploy and opensource tools such as GitLab, Chef, and CircleCI.
