We provide a secure, UK hosted and managed GitLab service, with access to Community, Premium and Ultimate editions. You can integrate any additional tools you need into a single service including for example, Maven, Ant, Selenium and Mattermost. We provide a simple migration from an in-house platform to a secure UK hosted managed service providing security and ease of use. The service provides component virtualisation, continuous delivery continuous integration enabling your development team to control the deployment. By abstracting from system dependencies, it provides simplicity, increased virtualisation, and optimisation in agile solution delivery.
This service provides a component virtualisation, continuous delivery continuous integration service that enables the development team to control the deployment. By abstracting from system dependencies, it provides simplicity, increased virtualisation, and optimisation in agile solution delivery. As part of your Agile delivery, it enables you to package an application and its dependencies in a virtual container, that can run on any Docker Linux server. Docker can be integrated into various infrastructure tools, including Amazon Web Services, Ansible, CFEngine, Chef, Jenkins, Microsoft Azure, OpenStack Nova, Puppet, Salt, Vagrant, and VMware vSphere Integrated Containers. Hence you can have a consistent delivery target from local, to development, to test, and then to live, while moving across different cloud solutions.
How does it work?
It also helps simplify the deployment update cycle by using lightweight images, with only layer updates need to be propagated. It also provides a high-level API to support lightweight containers that run processes in isolation. Continuous Delivery provides “Delivery at Velocity”, enabling the “Agile Organisation”, and “Compliance at Pace”. However Continuous Delivery is not just about agility in delivery, but an ethos across the delivery lifecycle. It supports organisational transformation, which provides a step change in Change delivery, speed, and accuracy. Knowledge sharing and transfer is part of the “Infrastructure as Code” practice, it simplifies and reduces the effort needed to meet delivery goals. There is a wide collection of Continuous Delivery/Continuous Integration tooling available, and we support an extensive range of popular and stable tools, deployed into either Public or Private Cloud environments. Collaborating with our clients we help you to embed these enablers into your development, project, and service teams, to help break down the blockers, and greatly improve the efficiency of the service provisioning lifecycle (including key areas such as elasticity, assurance etc.) as well as the deployment/ delivery chain.
