American insurance company enriches processes via release engineering, migration to Azure DevOps
February | 2020
Client background
Challenges
The client had 240+ builds with manual execution of custom PowerShell scripts along with TFS on a daily basis. The client was using TFS 2015 version and maintaining 10-15 Servers. To reduce the cost and for better availability, they decided to migrate to SaaS i.e. Azure DevOps.
The client also wanted to reduce the dependency on other tools like JIRA which was mainly used for project and bug management through Azure DevOps. They wanted to incorporate CICD for automation and utilize the full capability of Azure DevOps. It was a major challenge for migration due to a total of 3,500 developers and hundreds of projects. Migrating all projects in one go was seen as a risk.
Solution
A comprehensive solution was provided by Wipro in the form of a Build & Release Management system:
Business impact
Multiple benefits were observed through Pilot Implementations:
“Wipro simplified and accelerated the DevOps process for the client and moved the Development, Testing and Ops team from TFS to Azure DevOps in order to provide better capabilities to the client. Azure DevOps, combined with people and processes, has enabled the client to continually provide value to customers.”

Whenever you read the words ‘Hollywood’ and ‘Security’ in the same sentence, your mind probably wanders of in the direction of movies likeDie Hard 4.0 or Swordfish where uber-cool and suave hackers like Hugh Jackman trying to hack $9.5 Billion off the government from a computer with seven screens.
The recent increase in the frequency and impact of cyber-attacks have kept Critical Infrastructure companies on their toes.
Security monitoring has always been critical to protecting IT ecosystems but with the rise in IoT-enabled devices and connected systems, the fear of cyberattacks has grown exponentially.
