Releaseworks is a DevOps consultancy and training firm based in St Pancras, London, UK, specialising in helping funded start-up companies achieve scalability using DevOps practices, cloud engineering and cloud native architecture to “help organisations release better software, faster.”[1]
History
Releaseworks was started by Miiro Juuso in February 2019[2][3] as the company’s Founder and CEO, having recognised a need for start-up companies to accelerate their internal processes and teams immediately once their product or service had initially launched to market.[4]
Miiro identified several common areas, processes and technologies that are suitable for rapid small-scale development yet struggle to translate well into progressively larger environments as an organisation grows. These smaller processes should be replaced by standardised DevOps best practices and tools as fast as possible in order to maximise developer efficiency, improve software testing[5] and achieve Continuous Delivery.
Services
Releaseworks’ main service is Releaseworks Propel,[6] where cloud engineering experts are seeded within a team of developers to work alongside them to build a CI/CD pipeline for Continuous Integration of their codebase, implement best-practices and provide classroom-style workshop training sessions, known as DevOps Clinics.
The goal of each expert is to confirm that the client project is brought in line with DevOps standards while also fostering a DevOps culture within the company, and ensure that a member of the developer team can provide Site Reliability Engineering capacity to the project at the end of the Propel engagement.
Academy
Releaseworks Academy was soft launched in 2019 as a re-brand of Get Into DevOps; a combination blog, knowledge base and DevOps training website started by Miiro Juuso in 2017. Get Into DevOps linked to a Udemy training course of the same name. As of 2020, Get Into DevOps had 4,000 student enrolments, 722 user reviews and an average rating of 4.0 / 5.0.[7]
In November 2019, Get Into DevOps was repurposed into Releaseworks Academy, to act as a private training portal for all Releaseworks clients, providing post-engagement DevOps skills training to client businesses and their staff. This included DevOps staples such as Docker, Jenkins, Terraform and Amazon Web Services.
In May 2020, Releaseworks Academy was made available to the public via its own website, with free memberships granting access to one course a month, and premium memberships granting access to all available courses. Releaseworks Academy launched with five courses comprising 150 videos. A course roadmap of upcoming content was also made available.[8]
