Cloud native Development

Cloud native technologies empower organizations to build and run scalable applications in modern, dynamic environments such as public, private, and hybrid clouds. Cornerstones of a Cloud Native Development approach include containers, service meshes, microservices, immutable infrastructure, and declarative APIs. These techniques enable loosely coupled systems that are resilient, manageable, and observable. Combined with robust automation, they allow engineers to make high-impact changes frequently and predictably with minimal toil.

What we do

We will help in accelerating your shift to a cloud native architecture with our end-to-end services, expertise and support that optimizes your public and/or private cloud resources and increases development productivity and agility.

Our Cloud Native Development services include :

• Application design and development - develop resilient and scalable applications using microservices architecture
• Infrastructure management with DevOps - manage your cloud operations and resources using our expertise on all major cloud platforms like AWS, GCP and Azure
• Container orchestration - deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications on managed Kubernetes environments like GKE, AKS or AWS EKS
• Serverless - develop new or migrate existing applications using a serverless architecture on major platforms like AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions or Azure Functions

Containerization

Containers are standardized units of software that package up code and all its dependencies so the application runs quickly and reliably from one computing environment to another. Containers isolate software from its environment and ensure that it works uniformly despite differences between environments. Docker container, the de facto standard in container technology, is lightweight, standard and secure and is available for both Linux and Windows-based applications, ensuring that software will always run the same, regardless of the infrastructure. If your application requires rapid scaling, spinning up hundreds of containers, use Kubernetes to easily and efficiently manage those clusters of containers. Kubernetes is an open source platform that automates Linux container operations eliminating many of the manual processes involved in deploying and scaling containerized applications.

What we do

• Dockerize existing application - create dockerfiles to port existing applications to run as Docker containers while taking care of it’s external dependencies
• Container orchestration - deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications on managed Kubernetes environments like on GKE, AKS or AWS EKS

Microservices

The microservice architectural style is an approach to developing applications as an assemblage of small services. Typically, each service handles one business function and runs in its own process, has its own data storage and communicates with other services using HTTP. In contrast, a monolithic application is built , deployed and managed as a single unit. Microservices are independently deployable and scalable, different services can be written in different programming languages and can be managed by different teams.

What we do

• Domain Driven Development - design the application into domains and subdomains, organize code in alignment with business problems, create a common language to talk about these domains
• Ployglot implementation and persistence - use programming languages or paradigm best suited for a service eg., it is common to find services written in NodeJS, Java and GoLang within the same application. Similarly, RDBMS, Document store or Graph DB can all be used as persistence technologies for different services in the application
• API gateway design and development - API gateway is responsible for request routing, composition, and protocol translation - acting as a single entry point into the system and often handling a request by invoking multiple microservices and aggregating the results.
