“I honestly didn’t think we would be able to pull this off. It is amazing what we’ve been able to change in just the past few weeks,” the project manager says, beaming. “We are going to move all of our projects to this style of development. If we are lucky, we can start experimenting with smaller projects and faster release cycles. The cost of updating software is so much lighter now. We’ve also reduced our server costs by deploying small applications as functions and then migrating them to our Kubernetes cluster.”
You can’t help but smile too. The project manager still hasn’t seen the future payout of this pattern. When automation came to textile creation, it changed a 100% manual job into a 2% manual job. The long-term effects were more jobs in textile manufacturing and more products for everyday consumers. By automating 98% of the workflow, your company will now be able to produce more products and tools to help your company grow.
