A major bank with traditional SDLC and waterfall-based delivery cycles. Releases occurred quarterly, with weeks of manual UAT and approvals.

• Manual builds and releases introduced human error
• Deployment cycles were slow and painful
• Developers and operations worked in silos

• Introduced a Jenkins-based CI pipeline for automated builds and artifact versioning
• Integrated Ansible for repeatable deployment tasks across environments
• Implemented SonarQube for code quality checks before UAT stage

• Cut deployment effort by 60%
• Reduced build failures and release rollbacks
• Developers embraced automation — even without full agile sprints

A healthcare SaaS provider whose dev teams used agile, but ops and compliance teams were still aligned to a gated, documentation-heavy release process.

• Inconsistent environments across dev, QA, and prod
• Approval delays for infrastructure provisioning
• Manual testing caused bottlenecks

• Implemented Terraform for environment provisioning with version control
• Set up GitLab CI/CD to automate builds, security scans, and test suites
• Created a "pre-approved IaC catalog" to accelerate compliance approvals

• Developers could self-serve environments
• Deployment time reduced from days to hours
• Compliance team gained visibility and control without slowing down delivery

A large manufacturing firm running an on-prem ERP with limited development velocity and no agile practices.

• No automation across code, infrastructure, or testing
• Risk of system outage during code changes
• Resistance to agile ceremonies from senior stakeholders

• Introduced Azure DevOps Pipelines for code packaging and deployment
• Enabled nightly automated backups and rollback plans
• Trained the internal team on using source control and pipelines — without changing delivery models

• Brought version control and visibility into a legacy system
• Automated backups and rollbacks improved uptime
• DevOps became the catalyst for eventual agile adoption

• CI/CD Pipeline Setup (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab, Azure DevOps)
• Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible)
• DevSecOps Integration (SAST, DAST, Secrets Scanning)
• Monitoring and Alerting (Prometheus, ELK, CloudWatch)
• Training & Adoption Workshops for dev, ops, and leadership

You don’t need to wait for a full agile transformation to gain value from DevOps. With the right tools, guidance, and phased adoption approach, your teams can start deploying faster, with greater confidence — even in traditional or hybrid delivery models.
