Software Development and Refactoring

Why just transform when you can ELEVATE? Rahi delivers full-lifecycle services that enable digital transformation success through its ELEVATE Services for software development.

Assess

For developer teams looking to modernize their code environments, sometimes the best place to start is understanding whether the right tools, build strategies, and registry release models are as efficient as possible. Customers who have legacy build infrastructure and want to utilize automated systems enabled through cloud or on-premise deployments.

Rahi offers two ELEVATE developer assessment service packages for customers who want external evaluation and validation of their CI/CD pipelines and workflows or and to give companies the details they need to build a plan for migration, refactoring, or development in a cloud or on-premise environment.

CI/CD Assessment

Code environment review with developer and operations team on existing tools and build processes
Review build logs and test strategy, including any automation in use
Interview key operations and developer stakeholders
Provide environment report and recommendations, along with next steps to developer plan

Microservices Assessment

Review existing container and VM strategy for services used
Review API documentation for cross-container and cluster communication
Review automation systems in use for infrastructure-as-code
Identify PaaS and SaaS models through interviews with development teams
Provide a detailed report of the environment and steps to Developer Plan

Plan

With a good understanding of what development tools to use and what model to deploy, developers like to quickly get to work to demonstrate rapid development or improvements to their project code. Planning is key. A well-designed build pipeline will make releases more efficient, introduce fewer testing errors, and improve workflow costs regardless of the deployment model.

Rahi offers two ELEVATE developer assessment service packages for customers who want external evaluation and validation of their CI/CD pipelines and workflows or, and to give companies the details they need to build a plan for migration, refactoring, or development in a cloud or on-premise environment.

CI/CD Plan

Create integration and deployment schedule based on software release structures
Identify, configure, and map software tools (IDEs, automation configuration files, etc.) to build processes
Identify build and reporting system with correct contacts
Create a reporting plan with success/failure details, contacts, and test structure (smoke, stress, integration, unit, etc.)
Provide projected cost analysis for implementation
Create a project plan for the execution of migration or refactoring of the build model

Microservices Plan

Create integration and deployment schedule based on container model and APIs
Identify, configure and map software tools (container trace and mapping, logging, sidecar proxies) to a microservices model
Identify build and reporting model with correct contacts
Provide projected cost analysis report for infrastructure and/or cloud costs for microservices
Provide detailed design documentation for operations, infrastructure, and application teams
Create a project plan for the execution of migration or refactoring of microservices

Implement

Once a development assessment is completed and a plan is created, the remaining efforts around containerization or build pipeline integration and deployment become much easier. Proper planning leads to solid execution and results. Time spent with Rahi engineering will help companies ensure they familiarize themselves with the tools and processes used in their new development systems.

Rahi offers ELEVATE services for CI/CD or microservices implementations to help customers migrate or port existing legacy or tightly coupled applications into a new services model with modern integration and deployment engines.

CI/CD Assessment

Identify one target workload to modernize with a proper ELEVATE Plan completed
Follow ELEVATE plan to create a new environment with reporting, scheduling, monitoring and logging, testing, and application deployment
Verify logs and build notifications are sent to customer monitoring and management platform(s)
Provide Highly Trained Technicians
Provide timelines for release to test, QA, or production
Provide detailed report post-implementation, including recommendations for future software or CI/CD improvements based on tools in use

Manage

Customers new to SRE roles and expectations are not always aware of the demands created around operationalizing new software projects. Reviewing logs, understanding project release schedules, and supporting a case tracking system around field incidents are the new normal for DevOps teams. Rahi can support all these needs and more for development projects large and small.

With Rahi’s managed services team, customers can reliably hand their development project environments to a dedicated staff running 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every day of the year, ensuring our customer SLAs are maintained.

Development Monitoring

Create a set of SLAs based on current development project
Monitor logging identities for proper reporting of SLAs
Tie development project into Rahi’s NOC for support E-mails, calls, or texts
Establish an escalation plan for customer notification and response based on priority and severity
Delivers reports to the client on a periodic (daily, weekly, monthly) basis
