As IT managed services is quite a broad notion, you’ll have to decide what kind of technical support is required. The main challenge here is that there is no one-fits-all proposition and you have to get acquainted with a number of services before you find the one you need.
Often, when companies try to use in-house resources to implement it, they run into roadblocks along the way like lack of infrastructure or knowledge. The slowdown or interruption narrows down all the advantages of DevOps implementation. On the contrary, the managed IT service provider possesses the expertise and resources needed to reach your goals. Under this service you can receive:
- setting up the infrastructure in the cloud and its support;
- automating development and production environments;
- implementation of continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD pipeline) that helps to avoid any issues in the planning, design and deployment;
- carrying out thought-out disaster recovery plans;
- servers security and monitoring, etc.
It is just a small range of work the DevOps engineers can perform for your business.
You’ll receive expert help in developing a testing strategy, writing test cases, autotests and maintaining the top quality of the product during the whole development process. The ability of a managed QA provider to identify defects early in development speeds up the process of getting your product to market. When coupled with DevOps, it can add an additional layer of security by testing your system for vulnerabilities with each update.
