Kainos achieves AWS DevOps competency
We are thrilled to announce that Kainos has achieved the Amazon Web Services (AWS) DevOps Services Competency! DevOps Services marks our fourth competency and is awarded to AWS partners with specialised technical skills and proven successes using DevOps to deliver positive customer outcomes.
'DevOps' has been integral to our delivery approach since the very early days of our Digital Services business - DevOps quickly became so foundational in our ways of working that today we consider it an intrinsic element of our culture. Over the years we have been really successful in leveraging these practices to help drive and accelerate the modernisation programmes of our customers.
Kainos is an award-winning AWS Partner of over 10 years and we pride ourselves on our experience in building and deploying complex and large scale services, so we are incredibly proud to be recognised by AWS with this official certification.
Achieving the DevOps competency is not straightforward – the bar is set high! A rigorous audit is carried out and a partner must demonstrate technical proficiency and proven customer success from deep expertise in delivering DevOps solutions in a mature and repeatable way. Just some of the technical aspects audited include examples of automating infrastructure provisioning and management, implementing continuous integration and continuous delivery practices (CI/CD) and building powerful business-level metrics and monitoring dashboards. Non-technical elements of the business working practices are also reviewed such as evidence of well-documented processes for project delivery management and governance, discovery and maturity assessment methodologies, quality assurance processes, customer training and hand-over – and many, many more!
This achievement means we now have four AWS Competencies!
- Migration
- Machine Learning
- SaaS
- and DevOps
Russell Sloan, Digital Services Director commented: “At Kainos, we are passionate about delivering innovation and accelerating modernisation for our customers, so to be acknowledged by AWS with this competency is fantastic. DevOps is at the heart of digital transformation, so this was an essential competency for us to achieve. I’m delighted with the efforts of the team!”
We have enabled many customers (such as Tallaght University Hospital and Department for Transport) to not only kickstart but accelerate their DevOps journey. Our team of experts love projects which empower and assist customers in designing, deploying and operating reliable, scalable digital services, so if you’re looking to begin your DevOps journey, get in touch with us here.
