Unprecedented Success in On-Premise DevOps Management and Implementation:

 

A Corporate Journey of Git, Jenkins, and IIS Server Management

 

Once upon a time, in the bustling city of Istanbul, a big-size production company, Production Innovations (PTI), faced numerous challenges in delivering software at a fast and reliable pace. Their application infrastructure was based on-premise, which meant that their entire IT operation, including software development, testing, and deployment, was handled internally.

 

In an attempt to enhance efficiency and embrace the DevOps culture, FTI decided to implement tools such as Corporate Git for version control, Jenkins for continuous integration and deployment, and Internet Information Services (IIS) server for hosting their web applications.

 

The first step towards their DevOps transformation was introducing Git. PTI’s developers were initially hesitant to migrate from the existing SVN system to Git, fearing the steep learning curve. However, they soon realized the benefits as Git not only streamlined their codebase with branches and merges but also improved their version control. Git’s ability to track changes, collaborate on code, and manage releases were game-changing. It fostered a collaborative environment and eliminated the “it works on my machine” issue.

 

Following the successful integration of Git, PTI embarked on implementing Jenkins for continuous integration and deployment. With a multitude of plugins and immense community support, Jenkins provided a means to automate the company’s software delivery process. The Jenkins pipelines integrated seamlessly with Git, automatically pulling the latest code, building it, and running unit tests whenever a new change was pushed. PTI’s deployment times reduced significantly, and the feedback loop became faster, empowering developers to respond swiftly to any bugs or issues.

 

Alongside, the company faced an enormous task of IIS server management, considering the sheer number of web applications they were hosting. Understanding the need for efficient server management, PTI employed the Web Farm Framework (WFF) and Application Request Routing (ARR) for managing and routing the web requests. Automated scripts were written to manage and configure servers, reducing manual intervention. These steps significantly improved their application availability and response times, enhancing customer satisfaction.

 

The simultaneous implementation of Git, Jenkins, and efficient IIS server management led to substantial improvements in PTI’s software delivery process. However, the transformation didn’t end there. The company recognized the need for continual learning and improvement, which is at the heart of DevOps culture. They organized regular training sessions and workshops to keep their teams updated with the latest best practices.

In time, the implementation of these tools became a success story within the industry. PTI’s transition was not merely a technological one but a cultural shift towards embracing change, collaboration, and continual improvement. The efforts reduced their deployment failures by 60% and improved their deployment frequency by 200%.

 

In conclusion, the story of PTI’s DevOps transformation signifies the power of effective tooling and a committed team. Through the implementation of Git, Jenkins, and IIS server management, the company not only improved its efficiency and productivity but also fostered a culture of collaboration and learning, proving that a well-executed DevOps strategy can yield remarkable results.
