DevOps is the latest catchphrase that everyone claims to be doing.
Gartner recommends that “leaders wishing to create a significant, lasting impact on IT performance should look to move beyond the Bimodal paradigm in the space of months rather than years.” Leading and executing on this cultural change is very challenging in enterprise IT. The urgency is to ensure your line-of-business teams remain engaged with enterprise IT, rather than deepening the divide between infrastructure operations and application development teams. In today’s rich marketplace for cloud-based solutions including infrastructure, platform, and software as services, application teams and line-of-business customers have options beyond traditional enterprise IT operations for hosting their solutions.

[/pullquote]With a Bimodal IT approach, AIS can optimize automated provisioning and self-service to benefit application development teams. This allows application teams to quickly provision “sandbox environments” that can be converted into production environments along with “IT environments” that resemble the application environments due to the way they are managed. We are experienced in providing architectural guidance to move applications from an on-premises environment to a cloud environment, all while enhancing performance and testing. We can help you envision and establish a base infrastructure integrating cloud and on-premises environments.
AIS has extensive expertise with Application Lifecycle Management, a deep understanding of overarching methodologies supporting Agile development processes, and an understanding of best practices associated with Continuous Integration and Build Management. These experiences, coupled with our deep knowledge of cloud platforms, make AIS an ideal partner to automate the provisioning and deployment processes for your organization. AIS uses tools available in the market, our own software, and our enterprise experience to create self-service portals that teams can use and IT can control.
