Floads - Remote DevOps

About

We are a group of DevOps Engineers with strong passion about UNIX like systems, Open Source and automation. One of our main goals is to balance hypes with stability while trying to get the best of both worlds. Intelligent, automated and self-explaining solutions are what we do, in the cloud and on premise. Once setup your infrastructure we provide 24/7 monitoring services.

Goals

Relief the dev team from the burden of worrying about infrastructure related questions. Infrastructure as a Service is the way to go. Automation, reproducibility and GitOps lead the way.

  1. Introduce the DevOps philosophy
  2. Remove the workload related to infrastructure
  3. Approach GitOps, automation and IaaC
  4. Review CI/CD, monitoring and deployments
  5. Have fun while doing it

Problems to solve

  1. One of the main pain points to solve, quite probably, is to free the dev team from the burden of infrastructure related tasks while deploying should be fun and straightforward.

  2. Get back in full control of the infrastructure. Here, automation & GitOps are key solutions. All environments should be provisioned using code in git which can be reviewed by any team member.

  3. It’s vital for business to keep the infrastructure up and running all the time. To achieve this, monitoring is one of the most important aspects. We take care of this while you don’t need to.

  4. As far as the tech landscape moves incredibly fast, it’s fundamental to adopt the right technology stack. Hypes are nice to follow, but new technologies must follow the real needs of the dev team.

Proposed solution

Review the existing infrastructure stack and get it shaped for being just consumed as a service. Foresee the future requirements and eventually prepare for Kubernetes as long-term goal.
