A DevOps partner can help healthcare organizations who need to augment their internal resources accelerate their software development and improve IT operations. DevOps partners like Significo can streamline your development & deployment through automation, collaboration, and continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD).

For a recent client—a mid-sized health insurance provider with approximately 9 million members—our DevOps team modernized their IT infrastructure. As a result of our work, they saw significant improvements to their internal development and IT operations, eliminating bottlenecks and reducing costs while improving scalability, security, and more.

Internal Development process or IT Operations challenges, including:

  • Manual and Inefficient Development Pipelines
  • No Automated Infrastructure Provisioning

Security and compliance requirements, including:

NBD, right?
