The cloud-native market has seen the introduction of a number of open source tools that combine software development and IT operations. There are too many narrow choices that can't be integrated into a single platform.
That is the opinion of Prashant Ghildiyal, one of the co-founders of Devtron, a startup that offers a platform to address what he believes are the top challenges facing the DevOps space. A low-code delivery platform is offered by Devtron. A container is a package of software that is needed to run in any environment. The interface of the platform gives it an ability to abstract away the underlying infrastructure.
There is evidence to suggest that there is a gap between the two. Only 10% of developers said their companies were successful at building and deploying software quickly, and less than half said their organization always relied on DevOps methodologies. According to a recent poll by infrastructure automation company Puppet, companies are hitting a number of DevOps speed bumps in the race to be cloud native, including a skills shortage, issues with legacy architecture, and limited or lack of automation.
The company closed a $12 million funding round led by Insight Partners. According to Insight Partners principal Josh Zelman,Devtron integrates with products across the lifecycle of microservices, enabling its users to deploy faster and automate their CI/CD.
As heads of technology and software architects at various companies, Ghildiyal and his co-founding partners, Nishant Kumar and Rajesh Razdan, experienced the challenges of scaling DevOps firsthand. Ghildiyal describes the design of the box as "DevOps in a box," with tools that give audit logs and metrics showing the state of an organization's DevOps maturity.
Tools for access controls and policy management, as well as environment Orchestration, software delivery workflows and cost, are provided by DEVTRON. Zelman said that this saves a lot of time and resources.
According to Global Market Insights, the market for DevOps was worth $4 billion in 2020. In November of last year, Render raised $20 million after winning the startup battlefield. Ghildiyal wouldn't reveal the names of the clients or the revenue of the company.
According to Ghildiyal, the main focus of the India-based company will be resources and cost maximization.
