Platform Ops
Move faster, spend less, reduce downtime.
We can help you build an internal center of enablement for DevOps practices that can be highly scaled and automated to self-serve multiple business units across a single organization
Enterprise Platform Strategy
PlatformOps allows organizations to realize greater cost savings through tooling consolidation and reduced licensing costs while also centralizing and specializing technical resources.
BoxBoat has a rich history of designing product-oriented DevOps software platforms while helping onboard dedicated internal teams that can be centrally leveraged by the entire organization to solve high-impact, highly-technical problems including monitoring, dashboarding, infrastructure creation, CI/CD pipeline creation, bootstrapping of new projects, security services, and testing.
Key Benefits
Automate
A Platform Ops implementation enables organizations to optimize their internal tool delivery for maximum efficiency. From custom virtual machines to networking, security, and even automatic scaling to meet dynamic end-user needs, Platform Ops offer significant features to enhance customer experience.
Self Service
Cloud providers offer many software applications as a service. Bring this capability to your organization. Simplify IT and operations management while increasing reliability, uptime, and data recovery. Services include application deployments, infrastructure, monitoring, auditing, and visualization.
Consolidate
Effective usage of the DevOps tooling landscape can significantly reduce both infrastructure and management costs for organizations. However, the complexity of tooling available often leads to increased spending without the proper controls, auditing, and initial design architecture.
Hybrid Cloud
Migrating applications to the cloud is an excellent time to consider utilizing new technology and deployment paradigms, including switching to managed services to simplify application architecture. BoxBoat has successfully migrated many organizations to the cloud while simplifying architecture and reducing infrastructure costs.
App Re-Architecture
Introducing modern application technologies like Docker enables faster cloud deployments, more robust applications, increased application density, and a streamlined Continuous Integration process. We've worked with many organizations to re-architect their on-premise or cloud applications to take advantage of new technology.
Container Orchestration
Cloud native orchestration platforms like Kubernetes enable organizations to rapidly deploy their applications while utilizing significant built-in features such as horizontal autoscaling and automatic recovery. Kubernetes in the cloud provides a robust framework to easily deploy your distributed applications.
Managed Services
Many applications utilize several tiers, including caching, databases, and monitoring. Cloud platforms provide this functionality as a managed service. Applications can be deployed and utilize resources allocated and managed by cloud vendors, which increases reliability and uptime while decreasing your IT overhead and management costs.
Optimization and Strategy
Whether on-premise or Cloud, there are many opportunities to optimize architecture and minimize infrastructure spend. BoxBoat has helped organizations reduce their infrastructure spending by up to 80% without impacting end-user performance or reliability, while simplifying deployment operations with automation.
Architecture
Cloud environments present a unique opportunity to optimize every component of application architecture. From utilizing more advanced deployment primitives to swapping in or out managed services, each application component can be custom tailored to provide the maximum benefit to your application.
Automation
The majority of cloud operations can be automated. This presents a unique opportunity to minimize costs, create process, enhance security, and minimize application and environment drift between development, test, and production application clusters. Each cloud implements these differently, but the primitives are the same.
Cloud Spend
Cloud spending is one of the biggest barriers to full adoption. When organizations migrate to the cloud, BoxBoat helps them optimize their architecture and implements key features to dynamically scale when necessary, and utilize resources to minimize costs where appropriate. This can provide a return on investment almost immediately.
Managed Services
Cloud vendors provide common application and deployment technology as managed services. They'll allocate and manage the resources, your organization uses the software as a service. This presents an opportunity to simplify application architecture, and more effectively manage compute resources.
Kubernetes
Every cloud vendor provides managed Kubernetes as a service. This enables your organization to deploy your application workloads without worrying about managing the Kubernetes management plane in high availability or upgrading your resources. Get the latest features and uptime SLAs without worrying about maintaining your infrastructure.
BoxOps
BoxOps is a fully managed Kubernetes and DevSecOps pipeline for your organization. All you need to do is push your code to git; we'll handle everything else from deploying your applications to maintaining uptime of your management plane and worker nodes. BoxOps lets you write code, and we'll take care of the rest.
Databses and Monitoring
Cloud vendors provide databases (such as SQL and Redis), logging (such as the Elastic Stack), and built-in monitoring capabilities as a service for your cloud applications. Take advantage of highly available, geographically distributed resources to deploy your applications and maximize response time for your end-users.
