Our client had developed a signature micro-service application to provide consulting services to their customers. With planned frequent patches, upgrades, and the implementation of new features, they needed a robust deployment process to manage multi-stage environments (Development, Testing, Live). The existing manual deployment approach was time-consuming which resulted in continuous releases and disrupted business progress.
Their manual Kubernetes application deployment model required a comprehensive transformation to an automated workflow. It needs to be implemented without any disruption to their ongoing business operations.

- Automate the deployment pipeline,
- Optimize release management, and
- Enhance security practices for handling sensitive financial data.
A robust and scalable solution was required to ease the challenges posed by continuous releases, manual deployment, and multi-stage environments.
Solution: Streamlining deployment model with advanced DevOps transformation
Our DevOps experts conducted a thorough analysis of the client’s signature application in Tanzu managed Kubernetes environment. We started by assessing the application infrastructure and release management process. To streamline version controlling, we recommended the best practice feature branching strategies and developed a unique repository using Git-Bitbucket tailored to their business requirements. The seamless integration of Git-Bitbucket with the Jenkins CI/CD pipeline paved way for building an automated release management workflow.
After completing the test coverages within the CI/CD pipeline, we bundled the artifacts using Pro Get and notified Octopus Deploy for further processing. One of the key elements of our solutions involved customization of the artifact release management, with an approval-based deployment pipeline. This approach ensures a smooth and controlled transition to the live environment by minimizing critical downtimes.
We embraced a cloud-native and security-inclined thought process to address their security concerns in remediating the application infrastructure. The implementation of role-based access control, coupled with the implementation of industry best practices contributed to optimizing the scalability and cost-effectiveness of their deployment framework.
