Regardless of the stage at which you need support, our DevOps engineers and the teams built around them provide high-quality software development services. We carry out software development projects by creating self–reliant teams in which DevOps engineers play an important role.
In recent years, we have managed to develop effective strategies and methods that guarantee the expected results in the intended time. DevOps services provided by JCommerce increase the chance of success, regardless of the project implementation phase.

As part of DevOps, we focus on areas which have a significant impact on improving software development processes:

• Automation of application compilation
• Test automation
• Automation of application release and implementation
• Optimization of resources
• Cloud infrastructure activities
• Monitoring

A German company providing insurance services for the automotive market has created a digital platform enabling its business partners to manage their services. The platform consists of 20 microservices, forming 12 modules, including modules such as customer and contract management, document flow, payments and reporting.

To optimize the software development process, DevOps engineers were involved, and were mainly responsible for ensuring the process of continuous application deployment (Continuous Deployment). Because the project was carried out in accordance with Scrum methodology, the implementation cycle was synchronized with Sprints, which normally lasted 2 weeks.

The result of the DevOps engineers’ work was a reduction in the time required for application delivery and the automation of tasks that previously would have had to be performed manually. Engineers also support development teams in solving problems, going beyond standard software development and making technical and architectural decisions.

The implemented process of continuous implementation functioned independently for each module and consisted of the following steps:

• The version is tested during building (unit, integration).
• The developer implements the task from Jira to development environment. He ensures that the application works and launches it accordingly.
• The version goes through manual tests.
• The version goes through automated tests (Selenium).
• At the end of the Sprint, the version goes to the SIT (System Integration Test) environment – the environment in which all modules are located. Here we can test their communication and integration.
• Once approved by the Product Owner, the application goes into the E2E environment (end to end) – applications recognized as stable on SIT undergo full testing of business processes through various modules (microservices).
• After the Product Owner’s acceptance of the E2E version, the application goes into the preprod environment, which is a mirror image of the production environment in terms of infrastructure. It is tested here if the application is stable in the same environment as prod.
• After the Product Owner’s acceptance of the preproduction version, the application goes into the prod environment.
