Challenge

Growth School faced critical DevOps and platform scalability challenges that affected delivery speed, reliability, and costs.
Scalability and Performance Difficulty scaling fast-paced projects locally, which limited the ability to keep up with growing learner demand and new initiatives.
Talent and Productivity Gaps Finding and retaining skilled DevOps engineers locally was difficult, leading to slower delivery and increased dependency on manual effort.
Manual, Error-Prone Releases Heavy manual involvement in build and release processes caused delays, higher error risk, and inconsistent promotion of code across environments.
Limited Visibility and Monitoring Lack of actionable metrics and real-time monitoring made it hard to know when code was production-ready and to proactively respond to issues.
High Infrastructure Costs Inefficient resource utilization and non-optimized infrastructure choices drove up cloud infrastructure costs as usage scaled.
