Cloud strategy and implementation
Public, hybrid, or multi-cloud – and which functions do we actually wish to outsource to the cloud? How can we create the greatest value for your business? Before we can find and implement the right cloud architecture for you, it is important to find the right cloud strategy for your business.
The questions that need to be answered in developing a cloud strategy are many and varied. Our interdisciplinary experts in the fields of architecture, organization, and compliance enable us to work with you to develop the answers that your company needs. We start by developing a strategy and a technical solution design to ensure that your journey to the cloud is sustainable.
Besides working with you to develop a cloud strategy, we also implement your cloud requirements for you individually and in a customized way. We are your reliable partner when it comes to cloud operations and governance, cloud security, and DevSecOps, as well as all the necessary tools and techniques that your organization needs for successful implementation.
We use methods such as continuous integration and delivery, containerization, and Kubernetes, as well as infrastructure as code, not for their own sake, but always with a focus on your company’s culture and people. We use the techniques that bring you the greatest added value, improve the productivity and work experience of your employees and also take care to establish and demonstrate the necessary corporate culture in your IT department.
Our partnerships with cloud providers such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and IONOS, as well as tool vendors such as GitLab and Instana, allow us to easily design the right solutions for you and adapt them to your individual needs without additional overhead or complicated processes.
Cloud native software development
Greater speed, efficiency, and flexibility: Cloud-native software development promises your business many advantages. If your applications are built for the cloud right from the start, your company will be able to respond more quickly to new requirements and scale and manage your software accordingly.
At codecentric, we've been developing software for years that's perfectly tailored to cloud environments. We always use the latest technologies that offer your company real added value – and empower your employees to develop cloud native applications on a sustainable basis. We see ourselves in our development work as a long-term partner for your company, developing bespoke solutions for you and your customers that have a positive impact on your business model.
Platform Engineering
If your business models are to be successful over the long term, it is essential for your developers to be able to work quickly and productively without any major obstacles. In addition to the right team culture that, say, DevOps principles and practices can create, more and more companies are relying on internal development platforms that provide their teams with a stable, scalable, and secure environment to develop applications.
Giving your teams access to a sophisticated platform means that they have to spend less time managing the infrastructure and can instead focus on actual application development. What's more, your organization can improve code and component reuse by using a shared platform, resulting in greater efficiency and faster development.
Regardless of whether you need to decide whether an internal developer platform makes sense for your company, whether you need to build one or whether you wish to evaluate an existing platform: we will provide support on the topic of platform engineering holistically and at all levels.
API Experience & Operations
Practically every organization engages with the issue of APIs , as they are seen as a panacea in the age of digitalization. APIs are no longer just a matter of integration. A first-class API experience is essential if your business is to derive the greatest added value from APIs.
A positive API Experience makes it easier for your developers to use APIs effectively in their applications. In addition, a user-friendly and powerful API can help developers choose to use it in their applications rather than choosing other, less user-friendly alternatives.
We are happy to advise your organization on APIs and enable you to use APIs in your company as best as possible by taking a holistic view of your requirements and to sustainably improve your teams’ developer success.
Managed Services
IT systems today are extremely complex and are increasingly challenging for your business, which is why it's vital for you to know what your IT department has to deal with itself – and which elements you can safely outsource.
At codecentric, we offer you a number of managed service options that take the pressure off your business and save you valuable time. We would be happy to show you where your company can make use of them – from operation and monitoring to optimization and cloud hosting. We offer everything from public cloud and on-premise solutions to complete development environments such as GitLab-as-a-Service and customized solutions for your specific needs .
