BAE Systems attains Amazon DevOps Competency

BAE Systems achieved Amazon Web Services (AWS) DevOps Competency Consulting Partner status, furthering the company position for developing and operating government cloud environments.

DevOps is a combination of practices and tools that enables users to evolve and deploy software at a faster pace than organizations using traditional software development and infrastructure management processes. AWS DevOps Competency Partners must demonstrate expertise in helping organizations implement continuous integration and delivery practices or aiding in automating infrastructure provisioning and management with AWS configuration management tools.

BAE Systems develops, delivers, and sustains secure cloud environments that can be customized to support government organisations transitioning to the cloud. To accomplish this,  the company's certified AWS DevOps professionals work closely with their customers to understand their missions and use the AWS cloud to quickly deliver applications and infrastructure, optimize cost and performance, and protect organizational assets.
