What the Client Was Facing
A media streaming company had 60 microservices on Jenkins pipelines built by different teams over 5 years. Build times averaged 45 minutes, flaky tests blocked releases weekly and the platform team spent 30% of their time maintaining CI infrastructure.
What ZippyOPS Was Engaged To Do
ZippyOPS was brought in to design and implement a solution addressing the root causes of the client's challenges — delivering measurable outcomes within a fixed engagement timeline. Our team worked embedded with the client's engineers throughout the entire project.
How We Solved It
ZippyOPS migrated all 60 pipelines to GitHub Actions using a standardised reusable workflow library. Parallel test execution was implemented with matrix strategies, Docker layer caching reduced build times and a shared pipeline template library ensured consistency across all services.
