The green zone focuses on reusable application services that can be used across different teams. DWP Digital’s project delivery units identified inconsistencies in their application build pipelines or integration solutions. Working together we were able to spot inefficiencies and duplication in workflows across teams, as well as complications when the app reached the deployment stage.
The work has seen a reduction in inconsistencies and, crucially, we’ve developed new quality-assured templates that can be optimised for different application types such as Java, Node and Node Casa. Teams can now migrate on to these templates to improve application build workflow across the green zone within DWP Digital.
The work has culminated in a batch migration to integrate multiple PDUs into one Gitlab project, providing a consistent and high-quality template solution for 24 application service teams providing no less than 112 applications underpinning services that are consumed by millions of DWP public users.
Throughout the project Opencast worked collaboratively to share knowledge through one-to-one training and shared documentation, as well as participating in engineering steering groups across DWP Digital.
