Overview

For today’s digital enterprises, ensuring reliability of applications and services is their top priority as it directly impacts the customer experience. Expectations around new features, availability, security, etc. are being pushed to new benchmarks and there is zero tolerance for events like slow application response.

Ensuring reliability involves a combination of several factors, one of the most important being a non-siloed way of working between the development and operations teams. The traditional methods of SDLC or even the modern-day DevOps often involve rigid boundaries that prevent faster root-cause analysis in case of outages and improved automation to support predictive failures. These development and operational inefficiencies lead to higher rate of failures and repeated breakdowns, ultimately leading to less resilient systems and lower customer experience.

HCLTech CARE (Cloud Application Reliability Engineering) brings value to the operations by leveraging a well-defined with a strong emphasis on reliability engineering capabilities. Our service model takes care of both critical-applications and non-critical applications with AppOps under CARE. The offering helps enterprises accelerate business transformation and maximize value by delivering reliable services in tune with fast changing customer expectations.
