&lt;p&gt;The client&amp;rsquo;s Jenkins based deployment process was error-prone and very time-consuming, leading to infrequent releases, slow feedback cycles and low confidence in the release process.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id="our-solution"&gt;Our Solution&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We built a fully automated CI/CD pipeline:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Automated builds triggered on every push&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Integrated security scanning and code quality checks&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Container image building and registry management&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Automated deployment to staging and production Kubernetes clusters&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Code quality management via SonarQube&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Artifact management via Sonatype Nexus&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Load testing using Gatling&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h3 id="results"&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Release cycle shortened from days to multiple daily deploy moments&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Zero failed deployments after automation&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Developer satisfaction scores improved significantly&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Significantly improved Time To Market for new features and bugfixes&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;</description></item><item><title>Kubernetes Platform Build</title><link>https://webuildyourcloud.nl/portfolio/kubernetes-platform/</link><pubDate>Wed, 15 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://webuildyourcloud.nl/portfolio/kubernetes-platform/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="the-challenge"&gt;The Challenge&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Carnext needed a reliable, scalable container orchestration platform to support their growing microservices architecture.
Their old stack was using AWS ECS, that had always functioned without problems, but was getting more and more of a hindrance due to the implicit limitations.
They also wanted extended routing capabilities for incomming and outgoing communication, this is where the Kong API Gateway software came in.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Vault &amp; Observability Platform</title><link>https://webuildyourcloud.nl/portfolio/benerail-vault-observability/</link><pubDate>Wed, 20 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://webuildyourcloud.nl/portfolio/benerail-vault-observability/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="de-uitdaging"&gt;De uitdaging&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Benerail&amp;rsquo;s engineering teams werkten met credentials en TLS-certificaten verspreid over configuratiebestanden, CI variables en handmatige processen. Tegelijk hadden developers beperkt zicht op productie-gedrag. Incidenten werden vaak pas duidelijk via klantmeldingen in plaats van via monitoring, en certificaat-verlopingen leidden geregeld tot weekend-werk.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Datadog Observability Rollout</title><link>https://webuildyourcloud.nl/portfolio/sanoma-datadog/</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://webuildyourcloud.nl/portfolio/sanoma-datadog/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="de-uitdaging"&gt;De uitdaging&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sanoma Learning beheerde een divers landschap aan services over meerdere environments met fragmented monitoring tooling: een tool voor infrastructure, een andere voor logs, een derde voor APM en losse dashboards per team. Teams hadden geen gedeelde basis voor incident triage en capacity planning was reactief.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Linux Platform Upgrade</title><link>https://webuildyourcloud.nl/portfolio/linux-platform-upgrade/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://webuildyourcloud.nl/portfolio/linux-platform-upgrade/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="the-challenge"&gt;The Challenge&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;NNIP was running an aging RHEL Linux platform that needed a full version upgrade. The existing infrastructure lacked consistent configuration management, making it difficult to maintain compliance and ensure repeatable deployments across environments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="our-solution"&gt;Our Solution&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We designed and implemented a production-grade security hardened Linux platform featuring:&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
