Job Description

Business Overview:

We are a small SaaS company providing a project management tool. Our application is deployed on a single server, and the current deployment process takes over 30 minutes, which is a major bottleneck for our development cycle. We need to reduce this time significantly.

The Challenge:

Our application deployment process is inefficient. We use a manual scp and ssh process to copy files and restart the server, which is slow and requires manual intervention. This long deployment time limits our ability to release new features quickly and fix bugs promptly.

Expectations:

  • Analyze the current deployment process and identify bottlenecks.
  • Implement a solution to reduce the deployment time to under 5 minutes.
  • This could involve using a faster deployment tool, optimizing file transfers, or using a different strategy like blue-green or rolling deployments (for a very basic setup).
  • The solution should be documented and repeatable.

Support: 

You will have full access to our server environment via SSH and a clear understanding of the current manual deployment script. We can provide a senior team member for consultation if needed.

Delivery:

  • A new, faster deployment script or process.
  • A brief report detailing the optimizations made and the before/after deployment times.

Documentation: 

A simple README.md file with step-by-step instructions on how to use the new deployment method and a brief explanation of how it works.

Skills

  • Application deployment and management
