The idea dates from 2017 when we were working on various projects that demanded great scalability and better communication between developers. It was hard to move people from one project to another since the devs on the various projects followed their own processes and used their own tools. There was little reusability across projects and the performance of the teams varied.
That’s when we felt the need for DevOps automation and decided to build our in-house tool that would solve our problems. This tool enabled all our developers to work independently, without having to wait for others to solve broken CI/CD setup. After it made a lot of our processes easier, we realized that it can do the same for other dev teams as well.
Trying to find a solution to our problem was the spark that lighted the idea of Microtica.
