How do you move IT infrastructure for a large government entity to the cloud<\/a>?\u00a0 By selecting one of the most technically capable providers to lead the way.<\/p>\n

That is the role Team ADEV is currently providing for the U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) and the U.S. Air Force Air Mobility Command (AMC).\u00a0 USTRANSCOM\u2019s \u201cSprint to the Cloud\u201d<\/a> intuitive has seen setbacks, some of them caused by cloud consultants they engaged who could not deliver on their promises.\u00a0 So eventually they turned to one of their highest performing and most technically capable programs \u2013 the Agile software development program AMC ADEV.\u00a0 Team ADEV, headed by SuprTEK along with partners SAIC and Tapestry, is developing advanced web application for AMC and USTRANSCOM,<\/p>\n

Late last fall Team ADEV was directed to start developing its web applications in a cloud development environment<\/a> (CDE) hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS).\u00a0\u00a0 Team ADEV took on the task and overcame a number of security and technical obstacles along way.\u00a0 In a very short period of time, most developers on the team migrated from an in-house fully isolated development environment to developing in the cloud.<\/p>\n

There are still a few obstacles to overcome, such as fully implementing an automated testing strategy, but overall the transition has been a huge success.\u00a0 \"\"In fact, Team ADEV recently delivered its first build completely developed in the cloud.\u00a0 It has also created a Dev Ops Jenkins Main Build Pipeline to quickly and automatically promote and deploy a code branch to an environment on a merge request.\u00a0 This includes Fortify<\/a> and SonarQube<\/a> scans and (in the near future) automated testing.\u00a0 It also includes containerization that makes the code more environment agnostic (i.e. \u201ccloud friendly\u201d).<\/p>\n

The not-too-distant-future goal is to deliver a build in the cloud directly to a cloud-hosted production environment so end users can take advantage of the latest features much more quickly than they can in the current delivery process \u2013 which sometimes means months between the day Team ADEV delivers a build to the day it is fully installed on the governments production servers.<\/p>\n

Team ADEV is happy to be a leader in supporting the \u201cSprint to the Cloud\u201d and to deliver more capability to our warfighters faster.<\/p>\n
