Our Service

INFRASTRUCTURE AS CODE

DevOps utilizes a practice of managing and provisioning infrastructure using machine-readable configuration files or scripts. Instead of manually setting these elements up, IaC allows our teams to make immediate and direct changes like any other software code. This practice allows for consistency and repeatability, reducing manual errors, scalability and agility, as well as the implementation of efficient automation.

CONTINUOUS INTEGRATION

A key practice of DevOps, CI/CD aims to automate the building, testing, and deployment of applications through frequent and reliable releases. By frequently merging code from multiple developers into a shared repository and automating building and testing processes, it ensures the codebase remains stable with issues identified and resolved early in the development cycle. This method allows for faster feedback, improved collaboration, reduced risk, and more frequent releases.

We Offer

We offer the best work on the current platforms, tech and engines

   ANY GAME ENGINE

Common game engines such as Unity or Unreal Engine have built-in features for collaboration, integration, and deployment pipelines which facilitate DevOps practices. Our familiarity with every major game engine, adapting to proprietary engines, and DevOps practices mean an easier and smoother development process.

   CLOUD PLATFORMS

Cloud platforms are integral to the infrastructure, storage, and delivery of computing resources for DevOps, deployment of game assets, and hosting of game servers. We’re more than familiar with Amazon Web Services and can utilize the cloud platform efficiently to deliver a seamless development experience.

   BUILD AUTOMATION TOOLS

Automation tools are important in the DevOps practice, with tools like Jenkins, TeamCity, and GitLab CD/CD, as they assist in the automation process of compiling, packaging, and building game assets. With our expertize, their automatic deployment of code changes will ensure consistent and reliable builds delivered more efficiently than ever.

   DEVOPS ENGINEER

A DevOps Engineer is responsible for the day-to-day implementation and maintenance of the required DevOps practices tools, processes, and infrastructure. Working closely with the game developers, operations engineers, and QA teams, they implement the automation build processes, establish CI/CD pipelines, and ensure the smooth deployment and operations of the game.

   QA ENGINEER

Responsible for the testing and maintaining the quality of the game, QA engineers would collaborate with the team in the automation and testing processes. Working closely with the developers, they would define test cases, identify bugs or issues, and validate the game’s performance.

   OPERATIONS ENGINEER

Operations or Site Reliability Engineers are responsible for managing and maintaining the game’s infrastructure. Reliability and performance of the game are their top responsibilities, working closely with the rest of the team to monitor and troubleshoot issues as well as managing deployments and working on the optimization of the game’s infrastructure regarding scaling and efficiency.

Product Manager

Responsible for defining and prioritizing the game’s features and requirements. A DevOps Product Manager is there to keep the development team aligned with the product vision and goals. They would also manage the deployment strategies, release schedules, and prioritization of features.

Let us help you

DevOps offers huge advantages to game development by implementing and evolving and living codebase that the team contribute to. What this living code allows is faster releases, increased efficiency, and a better overall quality assurance as it becomes a part of every single process and deployment. It is a constant process with the entire team contributing and collaborating together.

Games are made of large, complex assets, and managing version control and continuous integration of said assets can be challenging. This is where asset management strategies and a clear communication and optimization pipeline are crucial. There is also the balancing act of iteration speed with stability when trying to keep up with player expectations. Careful planning, automated testing, and release management can aid in this process. Lastly, one we’d like to mention is the cultural shift from traditional game development to one of collaboration and continuous improvement. This is an important consideration and one that must be approached with care.

DevOps introduces automation and a practice of continuous improvement and deployment. While new and different from traditional game development, it encourages collaboration between all teams and helps in the delivery of continuous feedback and improvement. Overall, with DevOps in place, you can expect to see improved efficiency, quality, and speed of successive code and version deployments.
