GitOps
We manage infrastructure and deployments through Git. Every change is reviewed, recorded and can be rolled back in one step.
DevOps and infrastructure
DevOps services
We automate the path from development to production and make your servers observable and backed up.
We automate the path that code takes from the laptop of a developer to the production server. We set up consistent development environments with Docker, automated test and deployment pipelines, monitoring and backups. This website is released the same way: every change to the main branch is tested, packaged and switched live on the server in a single step. If a problem appears, going back to the previous version is a single step too.
The problem we solve
In many projects a release is a ritual that one person knows. Files are copied to the server, a few commands are run and everyone hopes for the best. When a step is skipped, the site ends up half updated, and when something goes wrong, there is no clear way back. So releases get postponed, changes pile up and every release becomes riskier. Because the development environments differ from each other, code that runs on one laptop may not run on the server. Servers are not monitored, and nobody checks whether the backups can actually be restored. DevOps removes this uncertainty and makes releases repeatable, measurable and reversible.
How we work
-
Reviewing the current state
We map step by step how the code is developed, tested and released. We review the servers, the backup routine and the gaps in monitoring, and write down the risks in order of priority.
-
Consistent environments
We define the development environment with Docker. Every developer works with the same versions, and someone new to the team can start the project with a single command. Because development, test and production are built from the same definitions, errors caused by version differences disappear.
-
Automated testing and deployment
We set up a CI/CD pipeline in which every change passes the tests, is packaged and goes live after approval. The old version stays in service until the new one is ready and checked, and a rollback is a single step.
-
Monitoring and backups
We monitor error logs, server resources and the response time of the site. We take backups regularly and test a restore to confirm that the backup really works.
What we deliver
- A development environment defined with Docker
- A CI/CD pipeline with test, packaging and deployment steps
- A one-step rollback and a check after every release
- Documentation for monitoring, backups and restores
Frequently asked questions
Our site runs on cPanel. Is DevOps a fit for us?
Yes. Automated deployment does not need a large cloud setup. This website runs on cPanel and LiteSpeed and is released automatically with GitLab CI. What matters is that the server offers basics such as SSH access and that the deployment is defined in repeatable steps.
Does the site go offline during a release?
Not with the setup we build. The new version is prepared and checked in a separate folder on the server, while visitors keep seeing the old version. The switch happens as the very last step, all at once. If a problem appears, going back to the previous version works the same way.
Which tools do you use?
We use Docker for development environments and GitLab CI for automated testing and deployment. If your infrastructure already uses another CI tool or hosting solution, we review it first and do not recommend switching tools without a reason.
Can our own team run the pipeline after the setup?
Yes, that is the goal. Every step of the pipeline is written down in the repository, and what it does and why is documented. At the end of the setup we do a release and a rollback with your team and add the solutions to common problems to the guide.
Where are the backups kept?
We recommend keeping backups somewhere other than the production server. A backup on the same server can be lost together with the server. We set the backup frequency and the retention period by how often the data changes, document the restore steps and test them at regular intervals.
