EPAM’s DevOps Accelerator for Sitecore
Solution Overview
Eliminate downtime for applications and enable immediate rollbacks during deployment with EPAM’s DevOps Accelerator for Sitecore. Infrastructure being managed as code, zero-downtime deployments and one-click rollbacks should be a must for every solution, but proper DevOps automation is expensive and can take away from the budget for new feature development and other end-user facing innovations. To us, that’s not acceptable.
Our accelerator minimizes the effort required to provision and set up your infrastructure, while providing you with automated, zero-downtime deployments and one-click rollbacks out of the gate. It ensures that your solution will deploy consistently and silently, without interruption, every time. And before you think your infrastructure is too complex, know that whether you’re looking to keep it simple or focus on performance and scale with load-balancing and geo-deployments, this tool has your needs covered. It will create your production and pre-production infrastructure and provide you with all the DevOps tooling you will need to succeed, while keeping the development team and your investments focused on delivering new and innovative features and experiences for your end-users.
Customer Problem
Web experiences must work without interruption while enabling updates. Downtime means missed opportunities with potential clients. Prolonged deployments are resource-intensive and expensive. Manual rollbacks are prone to issues, exacerbating the problem.
EPAM Solution
Our accelerator ensures all of the key components needed to run the solution are in place and work together seamlessly, from environment infrastructure to build and deployment automation. It ensures deployments have zero downtime, removes the risk of interrupting the end-user experience, and significantly reduces the time and resources needed for DevOps, resulting in substantially reduced costs and assurance of maximum ROI.

Problem Statement
A large, global professional education client has a massive and highly scaled, multi-regional infrastructure footprint that would have been prohibitively expensive to manually setup and continually maintain and deploy to on an ongoing basis without proper automation and orchestration.
Solution Proposed
We leveraged our DevOps Accelerator for Sitecore to provide Infrastructure as Code and repeatable script-based provisioning to orchestrate the deployment and configuration of all infrastructure, ensuring that releases require minimal effort from the development team and incur zero downtime for the end users.
