The Cloud Native Computing Foundation® (CNCF®), which builds sustainable ecosystems for cloud native software, is making significant updates to its certification offerings.
Grid Dynamics announced the launch of its developer portal.
This self-service system is designed to streamline the software development lifecycle (SDLC) by providing a unified interface for managing software components, environments, and provisioning templates. It centralizes access to release management, continuous integration, incident management, and other development systems in a unified facade. The system intends to provide Grid Dynamics clients with accelerated development cycles, reduced operational complexity, and higher developer productivity.
The Grid Dynamics developer portal acts as a control center for development teams, providing one system that automates, streamlines, and provides visibility into the entire SDLC. Its main capabilities include management of environments, software components and their APIs, provisioning and deployment, and automatic environment checks with resource optimization recommendations. By integrating essential development tools and processes into a single, modular framework, the portal enables teams to focus on what matters most—delivering high-quality software efficiently and at scale.
"Modern engineering teams work with extensive sets of development tools and systems that can make it difficult for developers and DevOps engineers to get a 360-degree view of all resources and manage templates across all systems. Many companies struggle to adequately address this problem or develop expensive custom solutions that bridge the gaps," said Ilya Katsov, VP of Technology at Grid Dynamics. "Our developer portal provides a modular and customizable framework for solving this problem at a low cost. Our clients can now efficiently build custom self-service portals for accessing broad ranges of internal tools and resources to improve the productivity of their teams and ensure consistency of processes."
Grid Dynamics’ developer portal serves various critical use cases across the software development lifecycle including portfolio management, environment control, release automation, and knowledge base querying. Serving as a central hub, the developer portal also connects various aspects of the SDLC pertaining to discovery, integration, and governance. The developer portal is expected to help drive innovation—one of the key pillars of the company’s GigaCube growth strategy framework.
