By providing Magento 2 Development and Hosting for close to a decade, it puts us in a unique position, where we understand the limitations and hurdles that both Development and Hosting teams experience with Magento 2. Allowing us to effectivly bridge the gap for seemless deployments

Local Docker Development Environments

Docker is a great piece of tooling expecially when working within teams. It allows us to ensure every developer has the exact same software versions installed, to provide a consistent development experience. We can also easily upgrade/downgrade sotware versions within a single file, for testing Magento 2 updates.

We can ensure that your development team can make use of these environments to easily test and develop core Magento updates, aswell as easily being able to onboard new developers efficiently.

Empheral Host Environments (Feature Hosts)

Empheral environments are often overlooked in Magento. But are a great way to allow for QA or Client testing of features prior to release, and can be configured to run with stripped production data. Which allow us to test with as close to production data as we can.

Combined with GitOps it provides a seemless way to elevate your testing and deployment processes, reducing the amount of Bugs or Major issues you may identify after production releases.

Continous Deployments

Continous deployment is a key practise in recent years, it reduces risk by reducing the amount of developes who need access to production systems. It provides a clear and consise instructions set for deployments.

We can help you configure Continous deployment within your pipelines, to provide reproducable builds across all environments. Reduce the deployment time, and help reduce the amount of time spent managing deployments for clients.

Zero Downtime Deployments

When it comes time to deploy, Magento is complex and slow. A true Zero downtime deployment is more hastle than its worth. But we can get a near zero downtime deploy, where only database actions will trigger downtime (Installing/Removing modules etc). By pairing this with CI/CD you can deploy large Magento stores with no noticable impact to customers.

Self Hosted Sentry

Effective Logging is very important in Ecommerce stores. Although it can get very pricy, especially if you are managing multiple stores. Self hosting Sentry is a good way to keep cost down, and support a large amount of ingestable data. Although it can easily become a burden to manage if your are ingesting a fair amount of data.

Here is a Guide on self hosting sentry, beware though, it can be a bit of a pain to maintain especially for higher traffic sites.

Diaster Recovery

Diaster recovery is the most important part of any online business. Yet is often the part that is overlooked until its too late. There are many reasons when you may need to restore/access backups while running a online store.

We can create and tailor a backup solution custom to your needs, storing backups in multiple cloud spaces, automated integrity testing.

Also we can implement a regular testing schedule of various disaster scenarios to ensure your Diaster Recovery plan is upto scratch, and your backed up artifacts are usable and restorable. Whilst also providing reports on how long restores will take and what to expect.
