Solution
Ballast Lane Applications initially deployed a small development and DevOps team to address prioritized product backlog items for Apptega. Thanks to the professionalism and skill of our engineers, we've expanded to a larger team now working on the core modules of the Apptega platform. Our team collaborates closely with client leadership on both product and technical aspects, fostering a seamless partnership to deliver exceptional results. The platform is organized into distinct modules, encompassing the main product, platform administration, and essential system APIs. Within this framework, our team members are divided among various groups but continue to share insights and best practices In several of these teams, our expertise in PHP Laravel backend development and MySQL has been crucial for ensuring optimal performance and seamless integration. Additionally, our proficiency in AWS microservices, authentication, and Node.js development has played a significant role in the success of other modules. On the frontend, our JS/TS development best practices have been guided by the Apptega engineering team to create exceptional user interfaces. This has been achieved using cutting-edge libraries and frameworks, including React, Angular, Jest, and Bootstrap. Finally, our DevOps specialists have provided consulting services to Apptega for infrastructure management, implementing best practices in CI/CD, monitoring, logging, alerts, information security, and developer support. Our expertise with Terraform, AWS Cloud, Datadog, and GitHub has been particularly instrumental in these efforts.
