Maximizing efficiency through integration of dev and operations

Expert view
The collaboration between Ray Sono and IT service provider Interlake illustrates how important the interaction between software development and operations is.

Challenges of software-cloud integration

Many companies acquire promising software solutions that often fail in practice. The separation of code and operations leads to inefficiency, scalability issues and increased maintenance costs. Lack of coordination between developers and operations teams, as well as uncoordinated use of cloud resources, result in high operating costs – not a healthy foundation for a first-class user experience.

Strategic synergy: Seamless processes for maximum speed and cost efficiency

The partnership between Ray Sono and Interlake is based on close integration in the development and provision of software. Joint planning and continuous feedback improve the understanding of requirements and lead to better results. Integrated risk assessments and fallback scenarios provide additional security.

The close collaboration with Ray Sono enables us to ensure that our clients fully benefit from the advantages of the cloud right from the start. At the same time, we ensure that the operation of the cloud infrastructure is efficient, secure and scalable.
