Platform Engineering

Platform Engineering

As application monoliths are broken down into microservices, new challenges emerge. Hunter Strategy stays ahead of them by deploying components onto platforms that fill critical gaps in observability, standardization, security, and compliance. Combined with automated DevSecOps pipelines that embed security throughout development, this approach eliminates the trade-off between speed and safety. The Result: Confident deployments, built-in compliance, and teams focused on innovation instead of manual processes.

Client Success Stories
Eliminating Infrastructure Bottlenecks through Platform Engineering
The Challenge
The Defense Acquisition Visibility Environment (DAVE) application, supporting DoD Acquisitions and Sustainment, was operating on legacy infrastructure with manual deployment processes, fragmented toolchains, outdated runtimes, and Virtual Machine (VM)-based architecture. These limitations created bottlenecks, security vulnerabilities, and extended downtime during deployments and system failures.
The Solution
Hunter Strategy executed a comprehensive Platform Engineering modernization strategy using automated DevSecOps practices:
  • Migrated from VMs to Kubernetes with minimal downtime
  • Implemented a fully integrated GitLab DevSecOps pipeline with automated security scanning and compliance validation
  • Upgraded the runtime ecosystem to a modern framework
  • Transitioned from MilCloud to cloud infrastructure with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) deployment models
  • Established automated security patching, observability tooling, and self-healing capabilities
