What do DevOps consulting services include?

DevOps consulting services include assessing your current delivery process, designing and building CI/CD pipelines, containerization and Kubernetes, infrastructure as code, monitoring and alerting, DevSecOps and team training. A good engagement starts by measuring DORA metrics so improvements are visible, then delivers quick wins such as automated deployments within weeks before tackling larger platform work. Consultants should implement changes hands-on, not just write reports. Many teams also continue with managed DevOps services after setup, so pipelines, infrastructure and monitoring stay healthy while developers focus on building product features.

How much do DevOps services cost?

A DevOps assessment typically costs $3,000 to $8,000 and takes one to two weeks. CI/CD and infrastructure as code implementations usually range from $10,000 to $40,000, depending on the number of services, environments and cloud accounts. A full platform build with Kubernetes, observability and DevSecOps sits at the upper end or beyond. Managed DevOps starts around $2,500 a month. The main cost drivers are system complexity, compliance requirements, legacy technology and how much training your team needs. We quote after understanding your stack and goals.

How long does a DevOps implementation take?

Quick wins such as a working CI/CD pipeline for your main application usually arrive in 2 to 4 weeks. A full DevOps platform with infrastructure as code, Kubernetes, observability and security scanning typically takes 2 to 4 months, delivered in stages so each improvement is usable straight away. Timelines depend on the number of applications, environments, legacy systems and how much change your release process can absorb at once. Cultural changes, such as moving to trunk-based development or on-call rotations, take longer and are supported through coaching alongside the technical work.

Which DevOps tools do you work with?

We work with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, CircleCI and Bitbucket Pipelines for CI/CD; Docker, Kubernetes, Helm and Argo CD for containers and GitOps; Terraform, Pulumi and Ansible for infrastructure as code; and Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, New Relic and the ELK stack for observability. For security we use tools such as SonarQube, Snyk, Trivy and secret scanners. We also use the native DevOps tools on AWS, Azure and Google Cloud. We recommend tools that fit your team rather than forcing a fixed toolset.

Why choose Webshark as your DevOps consulting company?

Webshark is a DevOps consulting company with 7+ years of delivery and 580+ projects completed under ISO 27001 and CMMI Level 3 certified processes. Our engineers implement the work themselves rather than handing over slide decks, measure results with DORA metrics and train your developers so improvements last. Because we also build software for 280+ active clients, we understand how pipelines feel from a developer's point of view. Our team overlaps with US business hours for pairing, reviews and release support, and we scale effort up or down as your needs change.

What is the difference between DevOps and DevSecOps?

DevOps automates how software is built, tested and released, so teams can ship small changes often and reliably. DevSecOps adds automated security into the same pipelines, including static code analysis, dependency and container scanning, secrets detection and infrastructure policy checks. Instead of a security review at the end of a project, every commit is checked and issues are fixed while the code is fresh. This approach reduces vulnerabilities, speeds up audits for SOC 2, HIPAA or PCI DSS and is now standard in our DevOps consulting services for regulated clients.

Do you offer managed DevOps services?

Yes. Our managed DevOps services cover pipeline maintenance, infrastructure updates, Kubernetes upgrades, monitoring and alerting, incident response, backup checks, security patching and cloud cost optimization. Response times are agreed upfront by severity, and you receive monthly reports on uptime, deployments, incidents and spend. Managed DevOps suits companies that do not have a full-time platform engineer, or whose in-house team wants support for out-of-hours issues. Plans start around $2,500 a month and scale with the number of environments and services.

Can you help with MLOps for AI projects?

Yes. We build MLOps pipelines that version data and models, automate training and evaluation, deploy models as APIs or batch jobs and monitor them for drift, latency and accuracy in production. We use tools such as MLflow, Kubeflow, SageMaker, Azure Machine Learning and Vertex AI, alongside the same CI/CD and infrastructure as code practices we apply to application software. For large language model features we also add prompt versioning, evaluation tests and cost tracking. See our AI and machine learning development page.

Which technologies do you use?

Our DevOps engineers work across AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, with Linux and Windows workloads. We support applications written in Node.js, Python, Java Spring Boot, .NET, Go, PHP, React, Next.js and Angular, plus mobile apps built with Flutter, React Native, Swift and Kotlin. Infrastructure is defined with Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation or Bicep, and deployments run on Kubernetes, serverless or virtual machines. Because our teams also build software, we can fix build scripts, tests and application configuration that block automation, not just the pipelines around them.

Who owns the source code and IP?

You do. All pipeline definitions, infrastructure as code, scripts, Helm charts, dashboards, runbooks and documentation created during your DevOps consulting project belong to you, and IP ownership is set out clearly in the contract. Work is committed to your own repositories, and cloud and tool accounts stay in your name, so you keep full control. We sign NDAs before discovery starts and remove our access at handover if you wish. There is no lock-in, so your team or another provider can maintain everything we build.

Can I hire a dedicated team instead of a fixed-price project?

Yes. Instead of a fixed-price project you can hire dedicated DevOps, cloud and platform engineers on monthly contracts, from one engineer to a full team with a project manager and QA. This model suits companies with ongoing platform work, many microservices or frequent new environments, and teams that want DevOps capacity without long hiring cycles. Engineers join your standups, work in your tools and follow your change process. Many clients start with a fixed-price DevOps assessment and then move to a dedicated engineer. See our hire full-stack developers page.

Do you provide support after launch?

Yes. After the initial DevOps implementation our support plans cover pipeline fixes, infrastructure changes, monitoring, incident response, security patches, tool upgrades and continuous improvement against your DORA metrics. Response times are agreed upfront by severity, so a broken production deployment is handled first. Our team overlaps with US business hours for planned changes and release support. You can choose a light retainer for occasional help or full managed DevOps, and we provide runbooks and training so your own engineers can handle routine work.

Why Choose Our DevOps Consulting Company

Good DevOps consulting is measured in results: release frequency, failure rate, recovery time and cloud spend.

Measurable Results, Not Tool Lists

We track the four DORA metrics: deployment frequency, lead time for changes, change failure rate and time to restore service. Before and after numbers show exactly what our DevOps services improved. Most teams move from monthly or weekly releases to daily ones, with fewer failed deployments and faster recovery when issues happen.

Hands-On Engineers Who Transfer Knowledge

Our DevOps consultants write the pipelines, Terraform and Kubernetes configs themselves, then pair with your developers so the knowledge stays in your team. Every engagement ends with documentation, runbooks and training, and you can keep us on for managed DevOps or take full ownership.

How Our DevOps Consulting Services Work

A clear, phased approach delivers quick wins in weeks and a mature DevOps platform within a few months.

Assess and Benchmark

Our DevOps consulting services begin with a one to two week assessment. We interview your engineers, review repositories, pipelines, cloud accounts and release history, and measure the four DORA metrics: deployment frequency, lead time, change failure rate and recovery time. The assessment exposes the biggest delays and risks, such as manual deployments, flaky tests or missing monitoring. You receive a prioritized roadmap with quick wins for the first 30 days and larger improvements for the next 90.

Automate Build and Test

Next we set up continuous integration pipelines that build every commit, run unit and integration tests, check code quality and produce versioned artifacts. Parallel jobs, caching and test splitting keep pipelines fast, usually under ten minutes. Developers get feedback while the change is still fresh, and broken code is caught before it reaches shared environments. You receive documented pipeline templates your teams can reuse for new services, which is often the quickest return from any DevOps consulting engagement.

Automate Deployments

Continuous delivery pipelines then deploy to development, staging and production with approval gates where your process requires them. Blue-green and canary releases, feature flags and automatic rollbacks turn production deployments from stressful weekend events into routine, low-risk work that can happen several times a day. Mobile apps get automated builds, signing and store submissions with Fastlane. You get one-click or fully automatic releases, deployment history and a clear audit trail of who shipped what and when.

Infrastructure as Code

We codify networks, servers, databases, Kubernetes clusters and permissions with Terraform, Pulumi or native tools such as CloudFormation and Bicep. Every infrastructure change goes through code review and the pipeline, so environments stay consistent and can be recreated in minutes after an incident or for a new region. Drift detection and policy checks keep infrastructure compliant over time. You receive reusable modules, state management and documentation, so your own team can make safe changes without waiting on one specialist.

Containers and Orchestration

We containerize applications with Docker and run them on Kubernetes (EKS, AKS or GKE) or simpler managed services such as ECS, Cloud Run or Azure App Service, depending on scale and team skills. Helm charts, autoscaling, health checks and resource limits keep workloads stable and cost-efficient. We avoid Kubernetes where it adds needless complexity. You receive production-ready cluster configuration, base images, deployment manifests and a hands-on walkthrough so developers can ship containers confidently.

Observability and Incident Response

Centralized logs, metrics and traces show how your systems behave in real time, using tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, the ELK stack or cloud-native monitoring. We define service level objectives, replace noisy alerts with meaningful ones, build dashboards per service and write incident runbooks. On-call rotations and blameless post-incident reviews help your team fix problems faster and stop them from repeating. Most clients see mean time to recovery drop noticeably within the first quarter.

DevSecOps and Compliance

Security checks run automatically in every pipeline: static code analysis, dependency and container scanning, secrets detection and infrastructure policy checks. Findings are triaged by severity so developers fix what matters instead of ignoring long reports. Audit trails, least-privilege access and signed artifacts support SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA and PCI DSS requirements without slowing releases. You receive a DevSecOps baseline, policy documentation and evidence your auditors can review, all built on Webshark's ISO 27001 certified practices.
