DevOps Outsourcing & Enterprise CI/CD

End-to-end engineering, automation, and ongoing operations for production software platforms. Noxet closes the gap between software development and systems operations, accelerating release velocity (Time-to-Market) while guaranteeing rock-solid availability under peak traffic demands.

We architect modern Cloud-Native and On-Premise environments, implement rigorous DevSecOps compliance controls, and build transparent, actionable Observability platforms.


Capabilities & Solutions

  • Production-Grade Kubernetes Architecture:

    • Bare-Metal and on-premise Kubernetes deployments (Talos Linux, Ubuntu, enterprise Linux) and managed cloud providers (AWS EKS, GCP GKE, Yandex Cloud).
    • High-performance software-defined networking: Cilium (eBPF-driven) and Calico CNI plugins, zero-trust network policies, and egress gateway routing.
    • Distributed Container Storage Interfaces (CSI): Ceph RBD/CephFS, Longhorn, and LINSTOR integration.
    • Fault-tolerant Ingress and API Gateway controllers (NGINX Ingress, Traefik, Envoy) with automated TLS lifecycle via cert-manager.
  • CI/CD Automation & GitOps Modernization:

    • Standardized pipeline architecture in GitLab CI and GitHub Actions: parallel testing matrix, automated static security analysis (SAST / SonarQube), and rootless image builds via Kaniko.
    • GitOps operational model: continuous cluster synchronization driven by ArgoCD or Flux CD. Strict audit trails and instant single-click rollbacks.
    • Resilient release patterns: Blue-Green deployments, Canary rollouts with metric analysis via Argo Rollouts, and verified zero-downtime updates.
  • Secrets Management & DevSecOps Compliance:

    • Centralized secret lifecycle management utilizing HashiCorp Vault: dynamic secrets, automated rotation, and Kubernetes synchronization via External Secrets Operator.
    • Automated container image vulnerability scanning (Trivy, Grype) integrated directly into commit gates and registry storage.
    • Policy-as-Code admission control: automated manifest validation and enforcement using Kyverno and OPA Gatekeeper.
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC) & Immutable Systems:

    • 100% infrastructure reproducibility using Terraform / OpenTofu: servers, subnets, load balancers, and managed databases codified into version control.
    • Configuration automation via Ansible: idempotent role hierarchies tested in Molecule.
    • Automated golden VM image factory using Packer.
  • Unified Observability & Proactive Alerting:

    • High-cardinality metrics: VictoriaMetrics / Prometheus engine visualized in modular Grafana dashboards.
    • Log aggregation: High-throughput log collection using Vector streaming to VictoriaLogs or OpenSearch.
    • Microservice tracing: Distributed trace ingestion using OpenTelemetry and Jaeger.
    • Intelligent alerting: Noise-filtered alert routing (Telegram, Slack, Mattermost, PagerDuty) with defined escalation schedules.

Technology Stack

  • Orchestration: Kubernetes (K8s, K3s), Docker, Containerd, Helm, Kustomize.
  • GitOps & CI/CD: GitLab CI, ArgoCD, Flux CD, GitHub Actions, Kaniko, Argo Rollouts.
  • IaC & Automation: Terraform, OpenTofu, Ansible, Packer, Python.
  • Networking & Storage: Cilium (eBPF), Calico, Ceph, Longhorn, MetalLB, Kube-VIP.
  • Security: HashiCorp Vault, External Secrets Operator, Trivy, Kyverno, Cert-Manager.
  • Observability: VictoriaMetrics, Prometheus, Grafana, Vector, VictoriaLogs, OpenTelemetry.
