Define requirements:

We work with your Product Owners and end business users in a consultative approach via workshops to clearly outline the application's purpose, goals, and constraints.

Choose architecture:

We work with your solution architects to define and select a suitable architecture based on factors like scalability, performance, and cost.

Design components:

We design individual components (e.g., microservices, databases, APIs) and their interactions.
Evaluate considerations around use of serverless or container-based approaches best fit for your use cases effectively tailor making the solution for your needs with evaluation on the benefits of serverless computing (e.g., Lambda) or containerization (e.g., ECS, EKS) for your application.

We build your applications utilising the 12 Factor methodology for building cloud native applications to ensure you achieve the below benefits

• Accelerated Time-to-Market: Rapidly develop and deploy innovative cloud-native applications.

• Enhanced Scalability: Build applications that can seamlessly scale to meet changing demands.

• Improved Security: Implement robust security measures to protect your applications and data.

• Reduced Costs: Optimize your cloud spending with cost-effective development practices.

• Enhanced Agility: Embrace modern software development methodologies like DevSecOps and CI/CD.

• Deliverables: Cloud-Native Architecture: Design and architect scalable, resilient, and cost-effective cloud-native applications.

• Modern Software Development Practices: Implement DevSecOps, CI/CD, and other modern software development methodologies.

• Infrastructure as Code: Manage your infrastructure using code for consistency and automation using tools such as AWS Cloud Formation, Terraform, Ansible or similar.

• Serverless Computing: Leverage serverless technologies to build scalable and cost-efficient applications using AWS Lambda, AWS Fargate.

• Containerization: Package and deploy applications in containers for portability and consistency using container orchestration platforms such as Amazon ECS, Amazon EKS, Kubernetes or similar.

• High-Performance Computing: Optimize your applications for demanding workloads using high-performance computing resources.

• Data Storage Solutions: Implement efficient and scalable data storage solutions tailored to your needs.
  

Development and Testing

Code development:

We work with your development teams to write clean, efficient, and modular code using chosen programming languages and frameworks.

Our polygot team capabilities encompass

-Programming Languages and Frameworks such as Java, Python, Node.js, Ruby, Go

-Databases such as Amazon RDS, Amazon Aurora, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon ElastiCache, Oracle, SQL server or similar covering both structured and non structured databases.

-Messaging Queues: Building and running and maintaining message queues on tools such as Amazon SQS, Amazon SNS, Kafka, IBM MQ or similar.

-Observability Tools: Instrumentation and observability via tools such as AWS Cloud Watch, AWS X-Ray, Data dog, New Relic or similar.

- Security Tools: Dev teams bake security into the dev process leveraging tools such as AWS WAF, Fortinet, AWS Guard Duty, AWS Inspector, Sonar cube, Check Marx or similar for vulnerability scanning and coverage.

Continuous integration (CI): Automate the build, testing, and deployment processes using tools like Jenkins or GitHub Actions, CircleCI or similar.

Continuous delivery (CD): Implement a pipeline for automated deployments to various environments (e.g., development, staging, production) using tools such as AWS Code Pipeline, AWS Code Deploy or similar.

Testing: We work with your testing teams to conduct thorough testing at different stages (unit, integration, system, acceptance) to ensure quality using variety of testing frameworks such as JUnit, Mocha or similar.

Deployment and Infrastructure

We work with your platform teams and roll out Infrastructure as Code (IaC):

We use tools like AWS CloudFormation or Terraform to define and manage infrastructure resources declaratively.

We deliver

- Deployment automation by automating the deployment process using CI/CD pipelines and tools like AWS CodePipeline.

- Containerization: If using containers, we manage them using services like Amazon ECS or Amazon EKS.

-Serverless applications: If using serverless functions, we deploy them to AWS Lambda and configure triggers (e.g., API Gateway, S3 events).

Continuous Improvement

Working closely with your Product owners and Product managers, we gather usage feedback to identify areas for improvement in the application.

We Iterate and refine by continuously updating and improving your application based on feedback and changing requirements in an agile way. For brownfield projects, we bake tech debt remediation in our dev process. We also keep the application and dependent components updated with the latest AWS services and best practices to ensure your application remains modern and efficient.

We migrate your legacy applications to cloud native and in doing so, some of Key AWS Services we use for build, run , change and support Cloud-Native Applications are :

Compute: EC2, ECS, EKS, Lambda
Storage: S3, EBS, EFS
Networking: VPC, Route53, ELB
Databases: RDS, DynamoDB, Aurora
Serverless: Lambda, API Gateway, S3
DevOps: CodePipeline, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy
Security: IAM, WAF, GuardDuty
Monitoring: CloudWatch, X-Ray

Our dedicated 24 X 7 X 365 support teams provide proactive and reactive support as required.

Logging and monitoring: We implement robust logging and monitoring solutions (e.g., CloudWatch, X-Ray) to track application performance and identify issues.

Alerting: We set up alerts to notify support teams of critical events or performance anomalies.

Security: We implement security best practices, including access controls, encryption, and vulnerability scanning.

Cost optimization: We regularly review your cloud costs and identify opportunities for optimization.

Run Books: We provide Run books for teams supporting the applications
