INDUSTRY: INTERNET COMMERCE
NEED
Our client provides not only a business-to-consumer platform for selling
goods, but a consumer-to-consumer one as well. The client was looking
to support a global engineering platform for more than 300 concurrent
projects for all of their build and release activities
SOLUTION
Akraya’s team worked to ensure that any challenges faced by the project
teams were immediately addressed. The engineering teams used the
company’s own private cloud for all their development and testing work.
Since the main business of the company was conducted via websites,
continuous integration was an important part of the process. Thus the
build and release activities were key and needed to be completed on time
with no issues. The support team ensured that issues were dealt with
quickly so that the deployments could happen with minimal time loss. The
scope of the team included development, testing, sandbox, performance
testing, pre-production, and even production environments for some
applications.
RESULT
The company tests all new features and products to ensure that the
turnaround time is quick so the end customers are able to utilize them,
which in turn leads to increased revenue for the company. Technology used
included Jenkins, ClearCase, Chef, Puppet, Nagios, Klunk, and home grown
tools.
