Cloud Native Architecture & DevSecOps
Software releases that ship on a predictable, routine schedule.
Vidya has built and operated cloud systems for clients since 2010, and the teams that hire Vidya for this work get software releases that happen on a predictable schedule. Your team ships updates as a routine, low-stress part of the week.
The Consular Systems Modernization program at the Department of State now runs on an automated release pipeline Vidya built with security checks in from the start. That pipeline supports a system that serves the public every day. Recreation.gov saw a similar result. A 6-month modernization supported a threefold increase in reservation volume without a matching increase in outages. Vidya builds this kind of pipeline as a self-service platform, a Golden Path, so a team’s release process comes with an organization’s security and compliance rules already built in. That discipline paid off when the Log4Shell vulnerability broke in 2021. Because Vidya already tracked a software bill of materials for its systems, Vidya found every place the affected library appeared across its codebases and patched it within hours.
Vidya scopes this kind of engagement with a 2-week audit that measures how often your team currently ships updates and how quickly it recovers from a problem. You get a prioritized list of fixes and one automated release process live within the first 6 weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which clouds does Vidya work in?
Both AWS and Azure. Vidya has run production systems for the Department of State, a national park reservation system, and a threat-detection system across both, so a client isn't locked into a single provider.
How does Vidya decide on infrastructure for a project?
Vidya matches the setup to a client's actual traffic and team size. A small team gets a simple setup, and a large program with dozens of services gets the more robust platform that scale actually requires.
What is a Golden Path, and why does Vidya build one?
A Golden Path is a self-service release platform where a team's process comes with an organization's security and compliance rules already built in, so no team has to assemble them on its own. That discipline is why, when the Log4Shell vulnerability broke in 2021, Vidya could find every place the affected library appeared across its codebases and patch it within hours.
