Silicon Overdrive Achieves AWS DevOps Competency

Silicon Overdrive is proud to announce that AWS has awarded us with the distinguished AWS DevOps Competency status. The DevOps competency signifies that Silicon Overdrive has the expertise, and has excelled, in implementing DevOps practices such as code pipelines, CI/CD and automated infrastructure provisioning.
"Silicon Overdrive is delighted that Amazon Web Services has awarded us the AWS DevOps competency. By utilising DevOps methodologies, we can streamline deployments and the migration of workloads, all with an emphasis on security and best practices."
This competency required a stringent audit with an independent third-party auditor to verify our technical and business development capabilities. This includes case studies of production workloads utilising DevOps methodologies and technical demonstrations of the AWS DevOps suite of tools and services.
The AWS DevOps competency demonstrates that our experienced and certified team of engineers and software developers has a proven track record of increasing the speed, efficiency and quality of software delivery.

What is DevOps?
DevOps is an approach to IT delivery that combines people and tools to break down the silos between your development and operational teams.
DevOps teams accelerate the development of applications and services and, with a more responsive approach to the management of the IT infrastructure, can deploy and update IT products faster than ever before.
As the name suggests, DevOps is where “dev” and “ops” meet. It emerged from two earlier trends: Agile development and lean manufacturing principles.
What This Means For You

Modern companies need to adopt a more flexible and efficient approach to software delivery. With integrated operations and development teams, applications can rapidly be developed and deployed in a secure and compliant manner. This means that companies who adopt DevOps can get to market faster than if they were utilising traditional methodologies.
Speed and overall quality are further improved by the introduction of automation software which can reduce or eliminate manual and monotonous tasks, freeing teams for more meaningful work. And as you are freeing your team by establishing automated services, your ongoing operational costs can be drastically reduced.
