Scaling on Cloud

The momentum around migration seemed to be gaining steadily. We were already building our roadmap of the next applications to be deployed on the Cloud while the first few applications were stabilizing. Every time a new application was deployed on Cloud, the operations teams made sure there were enough eyes and automation in place to resolve issues or outages as early as possible. For newly migrated applications as well as existing applications on Cloud, the teams made sure all related services were up and running at any given time and there was enough control and automation in place to make sure the best IT standards were implemented. This often meant keeping a constant vigil on all the changes that went in and having the ability to make sure that our processes and implementations were still relevant and optimized to the best of their capabilities.

However, with the handful of applications we had migrated to Cloud, we had our hands full deploying and supporting them. We realized that Cloud is only a viable option for running services if we could use it at scale in an efficient manner. Although by this time our team had grown with a set of five fresh college graduates it was highly impractical from a business point of view to expect the operations team to expand in proportion to the ballooning environment. The only way this seemed possible was to manage the increasing operational demands with the help of automation.

We started exploring the various options around automation. There were some references across the industry that proved to be useful and we started adopting those. Then there were certain requirements that we felt were not addressed by any solution readily available in the market. For these requirements, we started building our own automations.
