In addition, our team ensures efficient operations and guarantees reliability, security, and stability.
Our DevOps Services
At Kenner Soft, you get a comprehensive service package at transparent prices. We develop high-performance websites quickly and reliably to ensure they function perfectly, are stable, and experience minimal downtime. We don’t just handle development—we also ensure smooth operations.
Fast Release Deployment Through Optimized Roles for Ansible
Using predefined directory structures—Ansible roles—we standardize and automate infrastructure and recurring deployment tasks. Our DevOps developers reduce the number of manual workflows and thereby increase efficiency by reusing roles—written only once for specific processes (backups, file transfers)—for development, testing, and production. This allows us to accelerate deployment times, reduce manual errors, and ensure consistent development and production environments.
Setting Up CI/CD Pipelines
Our DevOps engineers have experience configuring and deploying CI/CD tools. To write, test, and deploy code faster and without errors, we set up CI/CD pipelines. This allows us to add new features or fix bugs more quickly. Changes are deployed to the live server within minutes, enabling automatic testing and early detection of issues. Time-to-market can be significantly reduced. Without a CI/CD pipeline, DevOps developers have to do everything manually. With a CI/CD pipeline, you simply trigger the process—the pipeline handles the rest. This allows us to complete your projects quickly.
Google PageSpeed Tests as Part of CI/CD
To properly monitor load times and prevent performance regressions, tests of this kind are an indispensable part of the CI/CD Development workflow. By integrating them, we ensure that new releases do not cause a decline in performance. Every code change affects load times, which is why comprehensive monitoring is necessary. At Kenner Soft, we monitor the loading speed, user experience, and technical quality of your OXID, Magento, or Shopware store using Google Lighthouse. We automatically detect any metrics that fall outside the acceptable range.
In addition, we conduct quality assurance, SEO, and user experience tests. Since we integrate automated tests into dashboards, new trends can be analyzed immediately.
Language Tests with K6
This is an important component of the DevOps pipeline, as it enables automated testing of software performance and stability under load. With K6, applications can be tested by simulating multiple users under extreme conditions. These users access products simultaneously, fill their shopping carts, or go through the checkout process. DevOps developers can analyze the results based on metrics such as response times and error rates. K6-based performance and load tests make it possible to detect regressions early on.
Automated End-to-End (E2E) Functional Tests with Playwright and Cypress
These tests are part of Kenner Soft’s DevOps Services. They are performed to automatically test the software’s user workflows. This allows for testing various processes such as user registration, product search, and payment workflows. Using end-to-end (E2E) tests with Playwright and Cypress, you can verify the quality assurance of Shopware, OXID, and other e-commerce platforms and web applications. They help ensure that revenue-critical processes function perfectly after release. In the event of a critical failure in the user process, the deployment is halted. We verify the overall functionality of the front end, back end, APIs, and databases as they interact with one another.
Migrations from Jenkins
Switching from Jenkins to innovative CI/CD solutions is not uncommon these days, as Jenkins feels somewhat outdated and is difficult to scale. At Kenner Soft, you’ll find developers who analyze your existing pipeline, migrate it step by step, and ensure stability and data integrity. We manage the entire process—from code changes to release—using GitLab CI/CD and detect errors immediately. Our team sets up the technical SSH key and installs Ansible on the GitLab Shell Runner. Ansible configures servers and automatically executes commands. This allows us to convert Jenkinsfiles to GitLab CI/CD and replace plugins with playbooks. After successful testing, we shut down the Jenkins server.
Setting Up Azure DevOps
To ensure automated, secure, and scalable development and deployment processes for your online store, our team sets up the project structure, configures repositories, creates CI/CD pipelines, configures service connections, sets up approvals and checks for test and production environments, and integrates tools for error and performance monitoring. This is necessary to ensure that features and bug fixes are deployed quickly to the live store, updates are error-free, and the number of manual processes and operating costs are reduced. We set up Azure DevOps as an alternative to GitLab CI/CD to support complex, company-specific approval workflows. Additionally, Azure Boards is more powerful and flexible than GitLab’s project management tools.
DevOps as a Service at Kenner Soft
Whether you want to lighten your employees’ workload or your company lacks specialized expertise, qualified DevOps developers can help automate processes and scale your business. In addition to professional E-commerce consulting, Kenner Soft handles a range of tasks. These include monitoring logging, integrating and deploying CI/CD, and providing other DevOps services.
Analysis and Initial Consultation
To gain a better understanding of the development processes and infrastructure, our team conducts an analysis and evaluates the CI/CD pipeline. We then document the findings, identify vulnerabilities, create a roadmap, and discuss all steps and deadlines with you, providing recommendations for improving development and operations.
Concept Development and Strategic Planning
In this phase, we are breaking down traditional silos between development and IT operations. To achieve this goal, our DevOps engineers are reducing manual workflows and determining which tools are best suited for the task. We are setting up pilot pipelines, implementing infrastructure as code, and gaining experience.
Implementation and Ongoing Monitoring
To improve quality, we automate infrastructure, testing, and deployments, and we measure and monitor progress in real time. We set up dashboards for metrics and define critical paths. In addition, we use feedback and KPIs to achieve greater stability and better customer satisfaction. Here is a comparison table of our approach and various other approaches.
| Criterion | Our Approach | Other Approaches | Standard |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deployment speed | 1.5x faster thanks to incremental code deployment with guaranteed Git/shop consistency | Fast deployments via CI/CD without incremental deployment or automated synchronization | Full deployments with long release cycles |
| Downtime | None | Short downtime due to scheduled maintenance windows | Maintenance windows with short or longer interruptions |
| Performance Monitoring | Regular monitoring of main pages according to a schedule or after each release | Continuous (daily/weekly) | Checks as needed |
| End-to-end testing | automatically after every release | automated testing before major releases | manual testing |
| Load testing | automatically after every release | regularly or before major releases | rarely or as needed |
| Release flexibility | Flexible code deployment (according to schedule or as needed) | regularly | according to fixed release cycles |
| Rollback mechanism | automatically in case of a problem | manually or semi-automatically | manually, which is very time-consuming |
