Your Software Applications Are Letting You Down - Quietly
Here’s what you need to make sure your apps aren’t dropping the ball, but consistently delivering business outcomes.
Your software is running 24/7, but without continuous monitoring, delays, defects and crashes go unnoticed. Critical performance issues, like slow database queries or memory leaks, often go unnoticed until it’s too late leading to loss of users, usage and revenue.
We use AppDynamics to monitor your software’s performance in real-time, catching any performance dips or errors as they happen. Splunk helps us analyze logs and identify recurring issues that could affect your software in the future. Together, they provide a comprehensive view of your system’s health, so problems are identified and solved before they escalate.
Example: When a sudden increase in sales volume starts slowing down your internal payment processing system, you need a monitoring system to detect the issue immediately and scale up resources automatically to meet the demand.
Software crashes and slow applications, when not addressed quickly can lead to significant user churn and business impact. We automate patch management with ServiceNow to ensure your software is always up-to-date with performance improvements, crash fixes and latest security fixes. We use Jenkins for automated deployments, so any updates are rolled out without downtime. Additionally, Docker and Kubernetes containerize and orchestrate your software, allowing for seamless scaling and high availability.
Example: A critical update is automatically deployed to your CRM software during off-peak hours. The update improves performance and fixes security vulnerabilities, ensuring that your team can access the system without disruption.
Security vulnerabilities in your software expose your business to cyberattacks. Unpatched software, weak passwords, and unsecured data paths can lead to sensitive customer data being breached, or worse, financial loss / reputation loss from cyberattacks. Missing a single patch can create an opening for attackers.
We proactively secure your software using Qualys for automated vulnerability scanning, which flags outdated software, unsecured APIs, or unencrypted data. We also run Nessus for regular compliance checks, ensuring your software meets industry standards like PCI-DSS or ISO 27001. Regular penetration testing helps us identify potential attack vectors before they’re exploited.
Example: When an outdated encryption algorithm is found in your payment gateway, the security flaw is flagged by Qualys. The encryption is updated, and the system is retested for compliance, ensuring the software is secure and compliant with no service interruptions.
Manual deployments slow down your development process and increase the risk of deployment errors. Each time a new feature or bug fix is pushed, your team has to wait for tests to run and for approvals to be processed. This delays features going live on production. At Codewave, we automate the entire release workflow so your team can focus on shipping code fast, launching frequently, maximizing business value; not wasting time managing deployment pipelines.
We automate the entire deployment pipeline using Jenkins for Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD). Every code change is automatically tested for errors and potential regressions before it reaches production. GitLab manages version control, so we track every change, ensuring consistency and traceability.
Example: A developer commits a new feature to your software. Jenkins immediately runs automated tests, detecting a regression. The deployment is paused until the issue is fixed, ensuring that no broken code makes it to production, speeding up delivery without compromising quality.
Your software systems are critical, but what happens if your data is lost, your system crashes, or a disaster strikes? Without a proper recovery plan, these situations can lead to extended downtime, data loss, and a major disruption to your business operations. If you can’t restore your software quickly, your teams will be stuck, and customers will be frustrated.
We design and implement disaster recovery plans to ensure your software is protected in case of failure. Using automated backup solutions, we ensure that your data is continuously backed up, stored securely, and ready to be restored quickly if needed. Regular testing of your recovery process ensures that it works smoothly, and in case of an outage, we can bring your software back online as quickly as possible, minimizing disruption.
Example: If your internal software system crashes due to an unexpected error, the disaster recovery plan kicks in. The most recent backup is restored, and the system is back online within minutes, so your teams don’t lose time, and your operations continue without delay.
Users get frustrated when your software is hard to use or slow to respond. Whether it’s navigating through complex interfaces, waiting for pages to load, or dealing with unresponsive features, these issues directly affect user satisfaction. When users can’t engage with your software easily, it hurts adoption and engagement rates.
We work on optimizing the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) of your software applications to make them intuitive, fast, and easy to use. By reducing user effort, making it simple for users to get most things done in a couple of clicks, reducing load times, and enhancing the design, we ensure that your users have a smooth experience. The goal is to increase adoption, improve engagement, maximize delight and value for users.
Example: When users find it difficult to navigate through your software due to complicated menus, we simplify the information architecture with global search and “one-click landing” to help your users access what they need faster.
Cloud resources are often underused or misconfigured, leading to unnecessary spending. Instances left running when not in use, over-provisioned servers, or the failure to scale down during low demand can significantly inflate your cloud costs. Without visibility, you’re spending more than needed for your software’s performance.
We analyze your cloud infrastructure with AWS Cost Explorer and Azure Cost Management to identify areas of inefficiency. We implement auto-scaling policies to ensure that resources scale up when needed and scale down during low-demand periods, avoiding unnecessary costs. CloudHealth provides detailed insights into long-term trends, helping us optimize your cloud environment.
Example: We find that an oversized cloud instance is running for a project that doesn’t require it. Using AWS Cost Explorer, we resize the instance to a more cost-effective type, and set up auto-scaling to adjust resources automatically based on real-time demand, ensuring cloud costs are kept under control without sacrificing performance.

Benefits of Managed Application Services
By outsourcing application management, you free up your internal teams to focus on what matters most—driving growth and innovation. Managing IT systems, security, and updates can be time-consuming and distracting. With managed services, you can leave the technical work to experts while your team concentrates on strategic objectives.
Hiring, training, and managing an in-house application IT team is expensive. With managed services, you only pay for the resources you use. There's no need to hire specialized staff, train them, or handle the complexities of employee benefits and turnover. This keeps costs predictable and scalable.
Outsourcing shifts costs from fixed (salaries) to variable (pay-per-service), freeing up capital for other priorities. Instead of investing in internal resources, you pay for the services you need when you need them, allowing you to invest more in product development, marketing, or other strategic growth areas.
Building and training an in-house team can take months and significant investment. Managed services provide immediate access to a skilled team of experts who are already familiar with your needs. This saves valuable time and ensures your applications are managed and optimized from day one.
Employee exits and sudden staffing shortages can disrupt your application services, causing downtime and additional costs. With managed services, you avoid these risks. Your applications remain consistently supported by professionals, eliminating the need for costly replacements or retraining.
