Software development

Software development needs to be responsive. You may need to add new features, fix bugs or support continual development. So instead, of using waterfall approach, we use an Iterative Agile approach. Because software development involves several iterations. Each includes analysis, design and programming.

DevOps

DevOps is the practice of operations and development engineers participating together through the entire service lifecycle, from design and development process to production support. Our DevOps process is systems thinking, amplifying feedback loops, and a culture of continuous experimentation and learning.

Software security

When an organization runs a complex Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, they often make configuration choices, such as the type and scope of encryption, users access and authentication techniques, etc. These is a complex configuration undertaking that could lead to security risk if not managed properly.

Cloud computing/storage

Moving to enterprise-based cloud storage solves the problem of the growing cost of IT storage. This is because we take cloud providers that are able to provide storage systems that will scale to the enterprise level needs. In other words, scale to petabytes, multi-petabytes and provide fast disk access between enterprises and cloud systems.

Cloud governance

Cloud Governance provides guard rails to make sure we are not abusing our resources. That we're using resources as prescribed by certain policies that we're creating, and that we're in essence allowing the cloud-based system to operate effectively, because we're placing limits on ways it can be leveraged.

Multi cloud solutions

We provide the ability to leverage multicloud in certain situations, selecting the right technology, approaching multicloud operations, development and governance, and putting together a strategy for multicloud, deployment and testing a multicloud. While assemble it into a final solution that you can take into your enterprise.

Software quality assurance

It's always wise to include everyone responsible for quality as early as possible in your product cycle. The more familiar these people are with what your goals are, the easier it will be for them to determine the best test strategy. It's important to keep in mind that the sooner you know about an issue, the easier it is to address.

Application patch management

One ways organizations correct software vulnerabilities is promptly applying security patches. Once knowledge of a vulnerability becomes public, organizations running unpatched code are vulnerable to attack because the news is out there. Attackers actively seek out those that are slow to correct security problems.

Plan and release software

The main thing to remember, is to have a consistent and well-communicated way to differentiate between versions releases that is understandable. Versions releases should be easy to understand. But it should also be layered within the idea of sprints. Not every sprint needs to match a new version. Consistency is key.

Architecture

Before coding, you have to decide how your application is structured. Without the right structure, your application has much less chance of success. You could dive straight into coding and trust your luck, and it may start out well. But soon enough, you'll find yourself in a lot of hot water.

Software architecture deals with the structure, design and process of the software.

Structure is about identifying the components that make up the logical structure of a piece of software and the system that it relies upon. This includes business and non business concerns, cross-cutting concerns, such as security, performance, logging, exception handling and business concerns such as solving the business problems in the correct and legal manner.

Design is also an important element of defining what architecture is about. Consider elements of design such as data structure, design patterns, marginality, components, and application flow. The technology stack that you use whether it be Java EE, Spring, .net, and so on, and a combination of technologies such as APIs, and frameworks that are going to help you solve the business problem.

Process is about the way you approach the development of the application. Controlling work flow with methodology such as scrum or agile and defining requirements.

Enterprise architectural patterns solve problems related to the structure of the Enterprise application. They're concerned with the organization and separation of concerns. So, an Enterprise architectural pattern might put the database at the center of the application. The classic three-tiered architecture does this.
