For the curious

The tools we work with

You don't need to read this page. It's here for people who want to know what's under the bonnet — or who have their own developers and need to check we speak the same language. Each group below explains, in plain terms, what that part actually does for you.

How the work moves from code to live

A figure-of-eight loop joining two halves. The left half, Dev, runs through code, build and test. The right half, Ops, runs through deploy, operate and monitor. Continuous feedback passes between them at the crossing point, a cloud above the loop carries the Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure marks, and a strip along the bottom lists the same work as a sequence: code, build, test, package, deploy, monitor, feedback.
The short version: we write it, we check it automatically, we release it, and then we keep watching it. The loop has no end because the watching feeds the next change — which is why nothing here is a one-off handover.
