DevOps and CI/CD Services for Websites and Platforms
Performance, uptime and security are engineering decisions — made before launch, tested on every release and watched in production.
Pare & Co runs DevOps for healthcare, public sector and enterprise organizations whose platforms carry real traffic and real consequences. We choose where a platform runs, define its infrastructure in code, harden what sits in front of it, watch how it behaves under load and automate the checks that catch a problem before a visitor does.
What Happens in Production Is What People Judge You On
A platform is judged in the moment someone uses it. A page that takes eight seconds, a form that fails at submit, an outage during the one campaign a year was built around — each is a small withdrawal from trust an organization spent years accumulating.
DevOps is the discipline that protects that moment. Done well, it shows up as faster load times, fewer disruptions to launches and campaigns, a stronger security posture, clear visibility into how the platform is actually behaving and a release process no one is afraid of.
| What Does Running It Well Require? | What We Examine |
|---|---|
| Where should it run? | Cloud platform, hosting model and cost profile |
| How does an environment get built? | Infrastructure as code, provisioning and parity between environments |
| What sits in front of it? | CDN, firewall, bot protection and traffic management |
| How do we know it’s healthy? | Monitoring, alerting, logging and performance budgets |
| What catches a problem first? | Automated functional, accessibility, performance and security testing |
| How does code reach production? | CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation and release cadence |
| What happens when it breaks? | Backups, recovery targets, rollback and incident response |
The Work That Keeps a Platform Standing
DevOps is a set of decisions about where a platform runs, what protects it, what watches it and what has to pass before code ships. Pare brings them together so the platform behaves the same way on a quiet Tuesday and on the day a campaign lands.
Cloud platform and hosting strategy
Choosing where a platform runs and what it costs to run there, across AWS, Azure, Acquia, Pantheon and Upsun.
Infrastructure as code
Environments defined in version-controlled configuration, so they can be rebuilt, replicated and scaled without being reassembled by hand.
Content delivery and edge security
CDN, firewall and bot protection through Cloudflare and Fastly, including defense against automated scraping.
Monitoring, alerting and logging
Instrumentation with tools such as New Relic and Splunk, so a degradation reaches the team before it reaches the audience.
Automated testing
Functional, accessibility, performance and security checks built with Cypress and Playwright and wired into the pipeline, so they run on every change rather than before every launch.
CI/CD and deployment pipelines
Continuous integration and delivery that makes shipping a routine act instead of an event the team schedules around.
Performance and load testing
Speed and capacity measured against real traffic patterns and the peaks a platform is actually asked to survive.
Backup, recovery and incident response
Recovery targets, restore drills and a documented path back when something fails.

The Checks Run Every Time
Accessibility, performance and security are the first things to slip when a release is under pressure, because they are the checks a person has to remember to make. Pare puts them in the pipeline, where remembering is not required.
The same principle governs the infrastructure. An environment that exists only in a hosting console is an environment one person understands. Written down as code and committed beside the application, it becomes something the next team can read, rebuild and improve on.
How DevOps Advances Key Business Outcomes
DevOps sits closest to Trust. Fast, available and secure is the most basic proof an organization can offer that it is worth relying on, and one outage in front of the wrong audience costs more than a year of steady uptime earns.
It also carries Growth and Engagement. Page speed affects conversion and search visibility directly, and a release process a team can move through quickly is what lets an organization ship the ideas it already has.
