DevOps Practice

DevOps that ships, not DevOps theater.

CI/CD, infrastructure as code, observability, and platform reliability — the boring engineering that makes app teams fast.

What we do

The engineering behind reliable, fast delivery.

DevOps done right is invisible. Your engineers ship, your platform scales, incidents drop, and no one talks about pipelines at dinner.

VanPaulTek's DevOps practice builds and operates the infrastructure that gets you there — pragmatically. We use what works, not what's trendy on Twitter. Not everything needs Kubernetes.

Our DevOps engineers pair with our App Development team, so the platform and the apps are designed together. No YAML thrown over the wall.

Tools & platforms

Modern stack, chosen pragmatically.

Coverage across cloud, container, IaC, CI/CD, and observability.

AWS

AWS

Full platform: compute, networking, databases, serverless, containers, ML.

GCP

Google Cloud

Compute Engine, GKE, Cloud Run, BigQuery, Pub/Sub, Vertex AI.

Az

Azure

VMs, AKS, App Service, Azure DevOps, Cosmos DB, ML Studio.

K8s

Kubernetes

EKS, GKE, AKS, self-managed. Right-sized deployments, not FAANG-by-default.

TF

Terraform

Multi-cloud infrastructure as code with modules and CI validation.

CI

CI/CD Pipelines

GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins — pipelines developers use, not fight.

Obs

Observability

Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Datadog, Splunk.

SRE

SRE Practices

SLOs, error budgets, incident response, postmortems.

What we deliver

From setup to steady-state.

Cloud Landing Zones

Multi-account/subscription setup with security, cost, and networking baked in from day one.

CI/CD Pipelines

Build, test, deploy — pipelines developers actually use.

Infrastructure as Code

Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi — versioned, reviewed, reproducible.

Container Platforms

Docker, ECS, EKS/GKE/AKS — sized right for your team, not defaults.

Observability Stack

Metrics, logs, traces — from install to real operational value.

Reliability Engineering

SLOs, error budgets, incident response — the SRE playbook.

Cost Engineering

Cloud bills grow silently. We keep them boring.

Security Baseline

IAM, secrets, network segmentation, vulnerability scanning.

Managed Ops

Ongoing platform ops, on-call, and iteration.

How we deliver

Assess, build, operate.

01

Assess

Current state review — cloud, pipeline, observability, cost.

02

Foundation

Landing zones, IaC baseline, security guardrails.

03

Deliver

Pipelines, containers, observability, first workloads.

04

Migrate

Move existing workloads with rollback safety.

05

Operate

Manage the platform — patching, upgrades, cost, incidents.

06

Improve

Ongoing reliability, cost, and developer-experience iteration.

Managed platform support

Support tiers.

What we're typically hired to do.

☁️

Cloud Landing Zone

Multi-account AWS/Azure/GCP foundation with security and cost from day one.

🚀

Zero-to-CD

Set up modern CI/CD for a team that's been deploying by hand.

📉

Cloud Cost Recovery

Cut 30–50% of a cloud bill by finding forgotten resources and right-sizing.

🔍

Observability Rollout

Instrument an app that runs blind — metrics, logs, traces, useful dashboards.

🛡️

SRE Practices

Introduce SLOs, error budgets, and incident-response discipline.

🏭

Managed Platform Ops

Take over the ongoing DevOps burden so app teams stay focused.

FAQ

Questions we hear often.

Do you require Kubernetes? +

No. Kubernetes is right for some workloads and overkill for many. We recommend what fits.

Multi-cloud, single-cloud? +

Both are legitimate. We help you choose based on real requirements — not vendor lock-in fear.

Can you own on-call? +

Yes — 24×7 SRE coverage available. Ideal for organizations where the ops burden is stealing engineering focus.

How do you handle security? +

IAM, secrets, network isolation, vulnerability scanning, and compliance posture from day one. We can help with SOC2/HIPAA/FedRAMP.

Cost optimization approach? +

Data-driven. Rightsizing, RI/Savings Plans, spot where safe, storage lifecycle. Typical savings 20–40% in the first 90 days.

Do you work with our existing tools? +

Yes. We're tool-agnostic — we work with what you have and improve incrementally.
