The Power of Seamless Integration

Endur DevOps Services

Streamline Endur Deployments with Azure DevOps

Modernizing Endur’s deployment process is now simpler with Value Creed’s Azure DevOps integration. In the fast-paced energy trading landscape, frequent updates and strict compliance demand speed and accuracy. Traditional methods of deploying code and managing virtual machines often create bottlenecks. Our Azure-based CI/CD pipeline solution addresses this by automating every step, from build to deployment. Whether handling Java or C# artifacts, the system ensures they are tested, validated, and integrated into Endur efficiently, minimizing errors and downtime while enhancing visibility, security, and control.

Breaking Down Challenges in Managing Endur’s DevOps Deployment

Inefficient Manual Management

Manually updating user access status leads to delays and potential compliance issues.

License Limitations

Fixed number of Endur users restricts access & causes workflow bottlenecks.

Complex Workflow

Traditional deployments involve procedures prone to errors & slower feature rollouts.

Limited Resource Optimization

Inefficient VM usage drives unnecessary costs and impacts performance.

Lack of Real-Time Updates

Without automation, deploying updates in real time becomes slow and inconsistent.

Lack of Collaboration

Disjointed Dev and Ops efforts delay deployments and reduce overall agility.

CASE STUDY

90% Outage Reduction

A midstream energy producer struggled with performance bottlenecks in their Endur ETRM system, especially during month-end peaks and high user activity. Value Creed applied a two-phased Performance Engineering approach using Azure Application Insights and targeted SQL and code optimizations.

The result: a 90% drop in production outages, 60% reduction in peak database load, and seamless month-end closures within 3 months, boosting stability, speed, and revenue protection.
