Datapipe Releases New Automation Services for Its Managed Cloud for AWS

Datapipe has released a new suite of automation and orchestration services for its Managed Cloud for AWS solution. The new Datapipe Automation Services provides the ability to work with Datapipe automation experts who perform an audit of existing infrastructures, identify key opportunities for automation, deploy custom automation solutions, and provide ongoing support to optimize frameworks and strengthen AWS service delivery.

The new service offers:

- Accelerated deployments of AWS environments

- Ability to rapidly adapt to application changes

- Reduced cost of IT operations

- Fully automated PCI compliance

- Customized approached based on each enterprise’s individual needs

Examples of Datapipe’s AWS Automation Services include:

With Datapipe’s automated PCI compliance module, AWS instances are automatically in compliance for PCI DSS in the space as they are provisioned. In addition, the PCI compliance module will continue to run every 30 minutes, ensuring that all servers stay in compliance and do not require manual remediation in the future.

Datapipe can fully automate applications on AWS, allowing enterprises to update application code, test, compile, and build the application on stage servers, and ship the application to production servers in less than five minutes. The developer only has to worry about the application code, not the infrastructure, saving time and money for the enterprise with little to no risk.

With Datapipe Automation Services, enterprises now have the ability to automatically move any or all AWS services in and out of accounts/regions. Datapipe can programmatically manipulate resources on demand. The rapid response time and increased flexibility allows enterprises to more effectively respond to business and application changes.

Continuous Integration is a best practice that helps catch code-related problems at an early stage. It also helps with reverting the code base to a bug-free state quickly and easily. However, a lot of time is spent on creating builds for these modules. Datapipe’s Automation Service for AWS eliminates the need to create new builds with every configuration run, increasing an enterprise’s efficiencies and response time.

Auto-scaling helps clients maintain application availability and scale Amazon EC2 automatically. Datapipe’s automation team assigns servers to auto-scaling groups that can scale both vertically and horizontally and works with the enterprise to define and deploy auto-scaling controls, customized and capped for each client’s individual needs. Data pipe’s Automation Services also establish Elastic Load Balancers Web and Stage load balancers, which keep an eye on instances, terminate unhealthy instances, and replace with a scaled instance.
