Project Summary

STX Next provided supplemental development, QA and DevOps resources for a data company, focusing on Python-based API development and 24/7 AWS cloud operations. The engagement improved platform reliability and met development milestones; the client expects to extend the contract due to proactive DevOps support and effective onboarding.

Key Challenges

  • Provide supplemental development, QA, and DevOps resources while the client built out its internal engineering team

Project Deliverables

  • 24/7 DevOps monitoring of AWS cloud
  • New version of APIs to serve data to customers
  • Data pipeline modernization and rewritten processes
  • QA testing and test scripts

Project Solution

STX Next supplied Python development resources to rewrite and modernize the client's APIs and data pipelines, provided a QA technician to run test scripts, and assigned DevOps personnel (approximately 2–2.5 full-time equivalents) to monitor the AWS-based cloud platform around the clock. A senior architect supported onboarding and knowledge transfer to integrate the developer into the client's systems. The vendor worked within the client's tooling (Jira) and maintained proactive communications.

Project Outcome

  • DevOps support became proactive and communicative, eliminating the client's need to chase system alerts
  • QA tasks were completed and development milestones were met
  • The client intends to extend the contract and continue STX Next's support
