1. Software Development

Akin to Australia's more than 300 spoken languages we can speak NodeJS, Java, Python, Bash, Perl, Ruby or any esoteric assembly construction that runs your backend APIs.

As per our values, we strive for Engineering Excellence and will always put you first by telling you the pros and cons of any technical decision. We are on your side!

We have delivered countless digital assets. Some very public (more info in our Blog and Case Studies) and some others hidden in the datacentres of many enterprises.

Above all we aim for Cloud Native solutions. We are proud members of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) and believe that the future (and present) will be powered by code that can seamlessly run on any cloud and in your own datacentre with minimal effort.

API Development

Today’s world is more connected than ever, from our websites to mobile apps and IoT devices. To ease the development of these hyper-connected systems we have been using Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for decades now. APIs have become a requirement for building digital businesses, and therefore it is paramount to not just use APIs but also define a robust API lifecycle management strategy for your business.

We can ensure a successful API strategy implementation by leveraging Apigee Edge, Google Apigee X, and our own open-source Apigee CLI providing ever-more secure, reliable, and scalable API programs.

At Darumatic we care about your success, some of the services we offer you in conjunction with Apigee are:

• Overall technical guidance and development of new API programs and/or improving existing API programs.
• Enable a fully automated API DevOps flow thus allowing your developers to be more productive whilst also achieving faster go-to-market times for your products and services.
• Monetization of your API products by creating and configuring revenue models, reports, payment gateways, and more to maximize the business value of your digital assets.
• A security-first implementation to shield your business from malicious attacks.
• An easy way to manage your APIs as microservices.
• Machine learning and analytics capabilities to generate actionable insights, detect anomalies in real-time and ensure security and compliance are met.

Let’s team up and ensure your business can thrive in today’s hyper-connected world.

2. DevOps

Beyond the buzzword there is a promise of improving the performance of your organisation not only with a culture of collaboration and high visibility, but also with more engaged employees and customers.

Companies that fully apply DevOps deploy 200 times more frequently, recover 24 times faster from errors and are three times less likely to break functionality with a new release. They also go from code to production 2,555 times faster than low performing companies! The benefits also include 10% more time for your employees to create new features rather than fixing production issues or other unplanned work.*

But DevOps is not a particular tool, software, or box you can switch on. It is a philosophy that you can progressively apply to your company and get benefits way beyond your investment.

Interested? Where is your company located in the DevOps journey? At Darumatic, we have been applying DevOps techniques, such as continuous integration, automated testing, and deployment for around 10 years. We have the expertise and experience in delivering dramatic advancements across multiple software development teams.

We can partner up with you to achieve the following:

• Setting up or improving your continuous integration pipelines to improve the time from commit to production.
• Setting up your infrastructure as code to make sure your environments are not snowflakes but can be fully reproduced in house or in the cloud.
• Adding information radiators to make sure everybody has visibility over the status of the project.
• Setting up and improving tools to manage your source code, issue tracking, artifacts management and more. Creating custom tools or plugins (Atlassian / Jenkins and others) to deliver personalised solutions.

Cloud Infrastructure

Cloud and VPN providers like Amazon Web Services, Google or DigitalOcean remove the need to operate your own data centre. However, the opportunity to use a potentially infinite number of resources comes with a challenge. The amount of computing resources used determines the costs of operating your IT in the cloud.

Moving a monolithic application into the cloud will not bring the desired benefits but leads to increased cost. We can work with you to analyse your existing application stack and determine which applications can be ported into the cloud and how.

Services we provide:

• Migrating applications into the cloud.
• Deploying K8 to build a cloud provider agnostic infrastructure to avoid vendor lock-in.
• Redesigning build and release process to work with the cloud.

Containerisation

In modern IT companies infrastructure like servers, databases, and application servers, storage can be made available to developers in an automated way. This puts a challenge on the developer to also be able to quickly deploy new applications. Containerisation helps in identifying all application dependencies to produce a container image with the running software. Container images allow your software to be quickly deployed into a test, user acceptance or production environment.

If you are moving into a micro-service architecture, containerisation plays an important part because teams focused on different application logic (e.g. user service, attachment service) produce more application artefacts compared to a monolithic application. Containerisation helps in simplifying the deployment of the entire application, because each service is shipped as a separate and independent unit.

Services we provide:

• Assisting in breaking down your monolithic Java application into Docker container images.
• Setting up Kubernetes or OpenShift as a container orchestration tool.
• Training developers on how to write applications that run on Kubernetes.
• Training IT administrators on how to operate Kubernetes.

3. Change Management/Leadership

We help leaders(and their teams) realize potential through change, one conversation at a time.
Change management is an essential process for companies and individuals who want to adapt to new situations, stay competitive, and achieve their goals. Change management typically involves creating a plan, communicating it effectively, and providing the necessary support to those affected by the change. Effective change leadership is also critical to successful change management, as it requires guiding and inspiring people through the change process.

How are we different:

• Evidence-based change    

  We mix well-known change management frameworks with evidence-based methods grounded in scientific research.

• Best Practices    

  We coach, train, and mentor change leaders all over the Asia Pacific. We know what the best practices are and what moves the needle during change implementation.

• Coaching for Change    

  We leverage a wide range of coaching techniques and frameworks to accelerate change implementation, bringing stakeholders at all levels on a journey.

• Speak the 'HR language'    

  We can collaborate with HR to enable cultural change, leveraging existing initiatives in the organization and supporting the establishment of a coaching culture.

Why is this a good investment:

How do we work:

• Partnership    

  We develop long-term relationships with our clients. 85%+ of our contracts get extended after an initial engagement.

• Value orientation    

  We provide advice based on what's best for you and your business, focusing on the actions and activities that move the needle.

• Expertise at your service    

  We are senior consultants enabling change and transformation in your business. We do not outsource or delegate the work.

• We customize best practices to your needs    

  We are across the best practices in the market, but we tailor our approach and solutions to maximize benefits realization and impact in your business.

• Flexibility    

  Some adjustments to the scope do not end up in additional billing.

4. Training
