We engaged EZOps to replicate our entire AWS infrastructure for both Production and Non Production. This included the AWS services and our CICD pipelines.

They also managed to, as part of the process, standardise our setup in Terraform and improve our CICD pipelines to be much more readable and maintainable (using Terraform) while maintaing the same DX for the engineering team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The quality of the work was good and so far no issues have happened. The team was good to work with and had a good communication process with regular updates on Slack and weekly touch points via Zoom.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

We managed to deliver the project on time and almost within budget (a bit over but within acceptable parameters given the complexity).

What was your primary form of communication with EZOps Cloud?

Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

We found the Upwork agency model interesting and contrary to previous experiences in Upwork they made this feel like we hired a standard devops agency.

The team seem to genuinely care about the success of the project.

Are there any areas for improvement or something EZOps Cloud could have done differently?

At times, we felt the technical leadership from EZOps side was less present than we expected. We had to compensate with our own tech leadership.

This was communicated to EZOps and the issue was promptly addressed.

We needed to build a blue/green deployment pipeline for our production environment. Challenge was building this while our customers were in the platform. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Team has successfully deplivered on our project goals. Pipeline works well. Team went above and beyond to support us when we needed it. They are knowledgable, responsive and easy to work with. 

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

They delivered on time, mostly. Intially there were issues due to resource sharing. But once we pointed out the issues, their CEO made sure to have DevOps fix our isssues on a holiday. 

Project management always finds resources when we need. Production pipeline maintenace is super time critical work. I could not have asked for more when it comes to support.

It would be easier to have the same person work on our project - who has in-depth knowledge on what has been done. But, they handled develoer transitions well.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

The project consisted of several items which were scoped out by EZOps. 

• Setup an AWS environment for our application. This environment has several AWS services, including ECS, ELB, VPC, Elasticache, AuroraDB, and more. 
• Containerize our Application for use in Docker. 
• Setup a deployment configuration that runs when we push code to Github using several AWS services like CodePipeline, CodeBuild, CloudFormation, etc. 
• Move our current DNS setup from Lightsail to AWS Route 53 and move the application with little to no downtime. 
• Setup monitoring and alerts using CloudWatch to ensure our environment runs properly.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Our original problem was that our application was not scalable. Our work queues would fill up and the application could not service more requests. The measurable outcome of this was to have our application field requests without filling up and scale out as needed.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

The communication through Slack was excellent. I was provided a daily digest of work to be done and work done. Anything that needed my attention was immediately brought up, and a discussion through Slack was always helpful and timely. Likewise, I was able to raise any issue or question I had and an answer was always provided right away.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We hired EZOps to help take our elastic beanstalk and amplify application stack and move it to a more traditional ECS and S3/Cloudfront deployment.  The scope of work involved building new build/CI actions to publish to a new environment as well as building the environment from scratch using Terraform.  This including buildout of ECR, ECS, SES, SQS, VPC, EC2, ELB, and many more 3 letter acronyms in order to get our application stood up end to end.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Output was really our main measure of success.  The goal was to see the applicaiton rebuilt and functioning in a new environment without issue.  EZOps worked in my source control, so I was able to see partial builds.  They PR'ed work to me in order to let me guide progress and adjust.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

EZOps included a project manager on my project.  They worked within my project management tools.  They also provided updates via our joined slack channel on a daily basis.  This was very helpful.  I had near immediate responses for any questions via slack.  Very nice!
