Code Pipeline Understanding

Amazon Web Service (AWS) GovCloud supports code pipeline which allows continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) for code deployed in development, QA, stage, and production environments. These pipelines allow for integrating security aspects, static code review, and unit test artifacts to ensure the deployed builds follow the highest desired security and quality. 

These code pipelines can be used to deploy APIs, front-end code, Robotic Process Automation (RPA) Bots, AI/ML models, and any others you may want to deploy on either server or serverless technology. 

Challenges 

Government agencies work with the public and consumers to address grievances, claims, and various activities. Every issue raised on the respective forum must be addressed effectively to ensure a world-class customer experience. 

Every limited staff agency has the challenge to address any concern coming from the public. It is very prudent to manage the workload using suitable automation techniques to achieve effective and efficient services. 

Process 

APV’s User-Centered Design Approach 

A user-centered design approach helps concentrate on actual users and helps build entire development lifecycle around their problems. The process facilitates creating products and services that resonate with the audience’s needs and improves usage and impact in service offerings. 

In every step of the process life cycle, it is important to prioritize user pain points, challenges, and choices. This helps in creating innovative products that are likely to improve user experience, usability, and productivity. When actual users have been empowered in the process, they develop a sense of ownership due to their close involvement. 

APV’s Emerging Technology Lab Powers-Up Using Multi-Platform Development 

Multi-platform development enables the creation of software products or applications for multiple platforms. It also encompasses software environments or channels such as web, mobile, tablet, and kiosks. We have several channels available to access business critical applications. These include mobile, tablets, and a variety of options via web browsers. Supporting each one of these channels becomes challenging if the application is not written or designed while considering target channels. A variety of users with unique needs and different devices increase maintenance and operational difficulties.
