Written by The advantages of Managed DevOps Services have been proven—but how can you determine if hiring third-party specialists is good for your company? Here are a few reasons why firms may seek Managed DevOps Services:
Inefficient change deployment
Many organizations struggle to efficiently deploy changes to their applications and infrastructures for a variety of reasons, including user resistance to the new DevOps approach, manual procedures that result in a significant lag time between a change request and implementation, the use of legacy tools, and technical issues.
Difficulty implementing cloud technologies & microservice architectures
DevOps is all about speed, agility, and flexibility, and cloud computing and microservices architectures play an important role in providing these benefits to DevOps teams. However, many firms lack the knowledge and resources required to successfully integrate these breakthrough technology.
Inability to scale cloud infrastructure
Similarly, the inability to grow cloud infrastructure can have a big impact on DevOps’ performance. There are several reasons why organizations may struggle to scale, including performance and reliability concerns, a sprawling application footprints, complicated processes and structures, and a lack of infrastructural visibility.
Launching new product or service
Many firms want to install modern cloud infrastructure and practices—and they require the capabilities, resources, and technology to do so fast and automatically.
Skills shortage of DevOps resources
The cloud has revolutionized not only DevOps, but also the skills needed by a DevOps expert. Organizations today seek DevOps personnel with a varied technical skill set—including knowledge of development, containers, serverless computing, automation, testing, and so on—as well as soft qualities like flexibility, adaptability, and a growth-oriented mindset. This rare combination is difficult to discover, resulting in a small applicant pool.
