DevOps Consulting

DevOps consulting that removes bottlenecks and makes releases safer

IG CloudOps helps SaaS and technology teams improve CI/CD, platform engineering, observability and deployment reliability across AWS and Azure — without forcing you into a long-term managed services contract.

Your DevOps process should speed delivery up — not slow it down

As software teams grow, DevOps often becomes the hidden bottleneck. Releases take too long. Pipelines become fragile. Developers wait for environments. Production changes carry too much risk. Monitoring is noisy. Infrastructure changes depend on one or two people who know how everything works.

Good DevOps isn't just tooling. It's the operating system that lets your engineering team move safely, quickly and repeatedly.

  • Features take longer to ship
  • Incidents become harder to diagnose
  • Engineers lose time to manual deployment work
  • Customers lose confidence when releases break
  • Cloud environments become harder to govern
  • CTOs lack confidence in release readiness

DevOps consulting across the full delivery lifecycle

Six focused workstreams. Use one, or combine them.

Common DevOps problems we help fix

Releases rely on manual steps
Pipelines fail too often
Deployments are slow or inconsistent
Rollbacks are unclear or risky
Cloud environments drift over time
Developers wait too long for infrastructure
Monitoring produces noise instead of insight
AWS or Azure costs rise without visibility
Production issues take too long to diagnose
Security and governance checks happen too late
DevOps knowledge sits with one person
Scaling the team creates more delivery friction

A practical DevOps review before any major rebuild

01

Review

Current delivery flow, cloud environment, pipelines, release process, monitoring and operational pain points.

02

Prioritise

Identify the bottlenecks that create the most risk, delay or engineering waste.

03

Improve

Implement focused improvements across pipelines, infrastructure, observability, release controls or DX.

04

Support

Flexible ongoing support, project delivery or advisory help depending on your team's needs.

What better DevOps should deliver

Faster releases

Reduce manual deployment work and help teams ship smaller changes more often.

Safer changes

Add controls, checks, rollback options and observability before production changes go live.

Less engineering waste

Give developers better tools, reusable environments and clearer deployment paths.

Better cloud control

Improve AWS and Azure governance, visibility, cost awareness and operational consistency.

Reduced incident impact

Use better monitoring, alerting and diagnostics to find issues faster.

Stronger delivery confidence

Give CTOs a clearer view of what's ready, risky and what needs improving.

Not sure where your DevOps bottleneck is?

A short DevOps bottleneck review can help you identify whether the biggest issue is your pipelines, cloud platform, release process, observability or team workflow.

Frequently asked questions

What does a DevOps consultant do?+

A DevOps consultant helps improve how software is built, tested, deployed, monitored and supported. This includes CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, cloud platforms, release processes, observability, automation and operational reliability.

Do you only work with AWS and Azure?+

AWS and Azure are our core focus. We help teams improve DevOps processes across both platforms, including CI/CD, infrastructure automation, monitoring, governance and operational readiness.

Can you help if we already have an internal DevOps team?+

Yes. Many clients have internal engineers. We typically help by removing bottlenecks, adding specialist AWS or Azure expertise, reviewing existing processes, or delivering focused improvements internal teams don't have time for.

Can you improve our CI/CD pipelines without rebuilding everything?+

Yes. In most cases the best starting point is improving what already exists. We look for practical fixes before recommending a full rebuild.

Can you help reduce deployment failures?+

Yes. We review your release process, pipeline checks, rollback options, environment consistency, observability and change controls to reduce avoidable deployment failures.

Do you offer ongoing DevOps support?+

Yes. We can provide project-based help, flexible support, advisory sessions or ongoing cloud operations support depending on your needs.
