SDLC

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a structured process that enables the production of high-quality, low-cost software, in the shortest possible production time. The goal of the SDLC is to produce superior software that meets and exceeds all customer expectations and demands. SDLC is a process followed for a software project, within a software organization. It consists of a detailed plan describing how to develop, maintain, replace and alter or enhance specific software. The life cycle defines a methodology for improving the quality of software and the overall development process. i;e Planning and analysis, Designing the product architecture, Developing and coding, Testing & Maintenance.

AWS

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a broadly adopted and secure cloud services platform, offering compute power, database storage, content delivery and other functionality to help businesses scale and grow. Amazon web service is an online platform that provides scalable and cost-effective cloud computing solutions.

DOCKER

Docker, an open-source technology containerization tools that use OS-level virtualization to deliver software in packages called containers. Docker designed to make it easier to create, deploy, and run applications by using containers. Docker is so widely adopted and used isn’t just the darling of Linux powers such as Red Hat and Canonical. Proprietary software companies such as Oracle and Microsoft have also embraced Docker. Today, almost all IT and cloud companies have adopted Docker. With Docker, you can manage your infrastructure in the same ways you manage your applications.

JIRA

Jira Software is part of a family of products designed to help teams of all types manage work. It is a tool that allows managers to keep track of what is happening in their organization: developing tasks, writing bugs, test cases, maintaining entire projects, etc. Jira allows not only to manage all the processes of the organization, but can also help in analytics, for example, to calculate how many tasks the team performs. It is highly customizable, and can be tailored to fit any workflow you need. It is primarily used in software development as a way to manage and track development efforts.

GIT

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. It is a version control system that is widely used in the programming world. It is used for tracking changes in the source code during software development. Git additionally makes cooperation simpler, permitting changes by numerous individuals to be generally converged into one source. Git is generally utilized for both open source and business programming improvement, with huge advantages for people, groups and organizations.

MAVEN

Maven is an automation and management tool developed by Apache Software Foundation. It is written in Java Language to build projects written in C#, Ruby, Scala, and other languages. It allows developers to create projects, dependency, and documentation using Project Object Model and plugins. It has a similar development process as ANT, but it is more advanced than ANT. Maven can also build any number of projects into desired output such as jar, war, metadata.

GRADLE

Gradle is a build automation tool known for its flexibility to build software. A build automation tool is used to automate the creation of applications. The building process includes compiling, linking, and packaging the code. The process becomes more consistent with the help of build automation tools.

JUNIT & SELENIUM

JUnit is an open-source framework for performing unit testing of Java-based web apps. You can also use it with Selenium WebDriver to automate the testing of your web applications. In addition, with JUnit, you can create test cases in a more structured and better format. Selenium is a free (open-source) automated testing framework used to validate web applications across different browsers and platforms. You can use multiple programming languages like Java, C#, Python, etc to create Selenium Test Scripts. Testing done using the Selenium testing tool is usually referred to as Selenium Testing.

ANSIBLE

Ansible is an open-source automation tool, or platform, used for IT tasks such as configuration management, application deployment, intraservice orchestration, and provisioning. It helps to automate both on-premises and cloud provisioning and configuration. It follows Infrastructure as a Code approach that helps in managing multiple systems at a time.

KUBERNETES

Kubernetes is a framework for running and coordinating containerized applications across a cluster of machines at its most basic level. It’s a platform that lets you manage the whole life cycle of containerized apps and services using methods that guarantee predictability, scalability, and high availability. Kubernetes is a system that manages containerized applications where a container could be explained as a lightweight virtual machine. To build an application you need to build a bunch of containers and then use Kubernetes to manage those containers. This sounds like something very difficult and time-consuming, but the advantage is that Kubernetes can create and scale containers automatically and manage storage among all the containers.

TERRAFORM

Terraform is an IAC tool, used primarily by DevOps teams to automate various infrastructure tasks. The provisioning of cloud resources, for instance, is one of the main use cases of Terraform. It’s a cloud-agnostic, open-source provisioning tool written in the Go language and created by HashiCorp. Terraform allows you to describe your complete infrastructure in the form of code. Even if your servers come from different providers such as AWS or Azure, Terraform helps you build and manage these resources in parallel across providers. Think of Terraform as connective tissue and common language that you can utilize to manage your entire IT stack.

JENKINS

Jenkins is an open-source automation tool written in Java with plugins built for Continuous Integration purposes. Jenkins is used to build and test your software projects continuously making it easier for developers to integrate changes to the project, and making it easier for users to obtain a fresh build. It also allows you to continuously deliver your software by integrating with a large number of testing and deployment technologies.

SPLUNK

Splunk is an advanced, scalable, and effective technology that indexes and searches the log files stored in the system. It analyzes the machine-generated data to provide operational intelligence. The main advantage of using Splunk is that it does not require a database to store its data, as it makes extensive use of its indexes to store the data. Splunk is a software primarily used to discover, monitor, and investigate machine-generated Big Data through a web-style interface. Splunk captures, indexes, and correlates real-time data into a searchable container from which it can generate graphs, reports, alerts, dashboards, and visualizations.

PROMETHEUS & GRAFANA

Prometheus scrapes metrics from a variety of application endpoints and stores them in its internal database.

Grafana is an analytical and visualization tool which is helpful to create interactive charts & graphs from the data and alerts scraped from the monitoring tools

NEW RELIC

New Relic is an Application Performance Management (APM) used by teams for application monitoring. The idea is to maximize productivity and minimize downtime by monitoring application statistics that reflect overall application performance. New Relic is an observability platform that helps you build better software. You can bring in data from any digital source so that you can fully understand your system and how to improve it.

DATADOG

Datadog delivers real-time threat detection and continuous configuration audits across your entire production environment, so you can bring speed and scale to your security organization. The Cloud Security Platform is built on top of Datadog’s observability platform, which breaks down silos between Security and DevOps teams and aligns them to shared organizational goals.
