Setup and migration
- Setup or migration service available
- Yes
- How the setup or migration service works
- OSO executes migration projects by applying the central-pipeline pattern. The core idea of this setup is to enable Kafka to integrate multiple data pipelines, bridge data centres in a streaming fashion and subsequently accelerate migrations. By using automation we can deliver consistent, repeatable and secure deployment patterns which mitigate the risks associated with large scale cloud migrations.
- Setup or migration service is for specific cloud services
- No
Quality assurance and performance testing
- Quality assurance and performance testing service
- Yes
- How the quality assurance and performance testing works
- We provide an in-depth set of practices across the software development lifecycle, from design all the way through to production to ensure quality assurance is benchmarked against the project requirements. To aid us in performance testing we leverage the Ducktape framework by Confluent. Ducktape does the hard work of creating the distributed environment, setting up clusters, and introducing failures. It helps in scripting up test scenarios, and collecting test results. Importantly it also helps to aggregate logs and metrics for all the tests it runs so that failures can be debugged.
