Agile, Automated and Secure
The Wehkamp DevOps team needed a more agile, automated, and secure way to manage its CI/CD environment. “Based on its vast expertise, Xebia redesigned our existing architecture and delivered a robust solution,” said a Wehkamps spokesperson. The new architecture relies on Amazon EC2 Container Service, Jenkins with a High Availability Plug-in from CloudBees©, Auto Scaling, and Amazon CloudTrail.
“Our new architecture allows us to operate in a state-of-the-art, automated, cost-effective, and reliable environment that follows best practices and uses the newest and most productive technologies. Thanks to Xebia, we now spend less time on ordinary management tasks and can instead focus on our rapidly changing business demands.” -- DevOps Lead, Wehkamp
Centralization Saves the Day
“Instead of running scripts locally, Xebia helped us implement a centralized CD server to manage our deployments,” said a Wehkamp spokesperson. He continued, “The new design allows repetition as well as auto-scaling in the CI setup. Now, during peak moments, multiple servers can handle the load then scale down during quiet hours, which keeps our costs low. We also use Amazon CloudTrail to log API calls, which lets us create an audit track for compliance.”
