Managed DevOps Services for AWS
Keep your software delivery systems moving without building every DevOps and platform engineering role in-house. Stratus10 works alongside your developers to architect, implement, maintain, and improve CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code, release automation, security controls, and the DevOps tooling that support software delivery.
The result is a more reliable path from code to deployment, with less DevOps work pulling developers away from product priorities.

What is Managed DevOps?
Managed DevOps provides ongoing technical ownership of the tools, supporting infrastructure, and processes that move software from development into production. Stratus10 works alongside your engineering team to architect, implement, manage, and improve CI/CD pipelines, IaC, release automation, security controls, observability, and the AWS infrastructure used to operate DevOps capabilities.
Your developers remain focused on application code and product priorities, while experienced DevOps and AWS specialists handle the operational work required to keep delivery reliable. This includes resolving pipeline and deployment issues, reducing manual effort, standardizing environments, and planning improvements as the application evolves. A strong delivery foundation also helps teams manage the faster pace of change created by AI-assisted software development without sacrificing quality, security, or control.
AWS DevOps Competency
Stratus10 is an AWS-certified DevOps competency holder with proven experience provisioning and managing delivery infrastructure, deploying application code, automating release processes, and optimizing each stage of the software development lifecycle with the practice of DevOps.
When to Add a Managed DevOps Function
As applications, AWS environments, and release processes grow more complex, responsibility for pipelines, platform automation, deployment reliability, and delivery security often becomes fragmented. Managed DevOps gives these systems clear ownership without requiring the company to hire for every specialty.
- Developers spend too much time maintaining delivery infrastructure instead of building product features.
- Deployments depend on manual steps, individual knowledge, or fragile scripts.
- Infrastructure differs across environments and is difficult to reproduce consistently.
- Container or Kubernetes adoption has outgrown the team’s operational capacity.
- Audit, security, or customer requirements need stronger controls in the delivery process.
- The business needs continuous improvement after an initial DevOps automation project.
Start with a DevOps Maturity Assessment
Before recommending tools or automation, Stratus10 evaluates how your team builds, tests, releases, and operates software today. The assessment identifies delivery gaps, technical risks, and opportunities to improve release speed, reliability, security, and engineering efficiency.
What we evaluate
- Delivery approach and release cadence
- Release management and governance
- Source control, build management, and CI
- Deployment and environment provisioning
- Quality assurance and automated testing
- Operations, monitoring, and release health
- Platform standards and automation
What you receive
- A current-state maturity profile
- Prioritized technical and process gaps
- Recommendations aligned with your goals
- A roadmap for delivery, platform, security, and operational improvements
What’s Included in Managed DevOps
The scope is built around the systems and practices your team uses to deliver software on AWS. Priorities are informed by the maturity assessment and maintained through a shared roadmap and delivery backlog.
DevOps strategy and delivery roadmap
Translate assessment findings into a practical strategy covering code management, release workflows, delivery architecture, technical risks, and improvement priorities.
CI/CD and delivery infrastructure
Build, maintain, and improve pipelines, IaC, and delivery environments for repeatable testing, releases, deployment approvals, and rollback paths.
We prioritize AWS-native delivery services where they provide the best operational fit. The assessment determines which existing tools to retain, integrate, migrate, or replace.
Platform engineering and environment automation
Create consistent environments and reliable pathways for common delivery tasks so developers can ship changes with less manual infrastructure work and fewer handoffs.
DevSecOps and quality controls
Integrate automated testing, code-quality checks, security scanning, access controls, secrets handling, and appropriate policy enforcement into delivery workflows.
Release health and troubleshooting
Connect logs, metrics, alerts, and release signals to pipeline and deployment support so teams can identify issues, restore delivery, and remove recurring bottlenecks.
Containers, Kubernetes, and serverless delivery
Support delivery practices for containerized, Kubernetes-based, and serverless applications, including image workflows and environment promotion.
How a Managed DevOps Engagement Works
The engagement starts with the delivery system you have today, then establishes the ownership, priorities, and operating rhythm needed to improve it.
Assess the current delivery system
Review repositories, pipelines, infrastructure definitions, environments, release workflows, security controls, observability, and team responsibilities. Identify immediate risks and the constraints that create the most delivery friction.
Define the operating model
Document responsibilities, escalation paths, approved tooling, service boundaries, delivery cadence, and success measures. This creates a clear working agreement for the internal team and Stratus10.
Stabilize and automate priority workflows
Address high-risk gaps first, then improve the workflows that will have the greatest effect on release reliability, developer effort, security, and time to delivery.
Operate, measure, and improve
Manage the agreed scope through a shared backlog and regular reviews. Senior DevOps and AWS specialists track delivery performance, address recurring problems, maintain documentation, and recommend improvements as priorities evolve.

Managed DevOps FAQ
Depending on the agreed scope, Managed DevOps can include CI/CD pipelines, IaC, platform engineering, DevSecOps controls, observability, containers, Kubernetes, release workflows, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement.
DevOps automation is commonly a defined project with a specific outcome, such as creating a pipeline or automating environment provisioning. Managed DevOps provides continuing ownership, maintenance, troubleshooting, and improvement after the initial capability is in place.
Not necessarily. Stratus10 can supplement an existing team, own a defined part of the delivery platform, or provide a managed function for organizations without dedicated DevOps capacity.
The maturity assessment examines current source control, CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, security, container, and observability tooling. Stratus10 recommends which components to retain, integrate, migrate, or replace. The managed scope documents which platforms Stratus10 operates directly and which remain client-owned.
The DevOps Maturity Assessment establishes the current environment, delivery constraints, desired responsibilities, and priority outcomes. Stratus10 then proposes an engagement scope and pricing model aligned to the amount and complexity of ongoing work.
Make Software Delivery Easier to Operate
Share where releases slow down, platform work is consuming developer time, or delivery systems need clearer ownership. The assessment will identify the right starting point and help define an appropriate engagement.
