A Solution for Enterprise-Scale DevSecOps

Solutions Delivery Platform is a Cloud Development Innovation of the Year Learn about the 2021-22 Cloud Awards >>

Standardize, govern, and accelerate software delivery

Federal organizations increasingly require DevSecOps practices to deliver capabilities quickly with the highest levels of quality and security. But successful adoption of DevSecOps requires a mindset shift when it comes to process, organization, and technology.

The software industry provides thousands of tool options that address similar needs related to DevSecOps. It’s a challenge for any organization to assess which of those tools should be adopted and integrated to meet the needs of its stakeholders—and then scale DevSecOps across the enterprise in a repeatable, flexible, and maintainable manner.

A Platform to Power IT Modernization

After identifying patterns across hundreds of client deployments, Booz Allen built and open-sourced the Solutions Delivery Platform (SDP)—the only framework for government and industry that can translate a large-scale DevSecOps mandate and incorporate enterprise governance. This reusable framework solves for barriers that organizations face every day:

Duplicative efforts on establishing software development infrastructure where individual teams set up DevSecOps pipelines on a project by project basis
Barriers to continuous delivery, with the need for developers to work through the same processes time and again
Inconsistent reporting around security and quality assurances for enterprise software delivery

Benefits of the Framework

With the Solutions Delivery Platform, developers can get DevSecOps delivery up and running in a few hours, instead of spending months implementing it within an individual organization. They can focus more of their time on work that drives the mission forward and accelerate the development of applications and critical capabilities. Quality and security metrics are automated, feedback loops are immediate, and agencies have access to continuous delivery.

The heart of SDP is a Booz Allen-created Jenkins plugin named the Jenkins Templating Engine. It’s installed just like any of the other dozens of plugins installed on a Jenkins server and with it, organizations can begin implementing enterprise-scale DevSecOps solutions.

Commitment to Open Source Solutions

Booz Allen is committed to transparency and believes that engineers can build better solutions together, rather than apart. That’s why we open-sourced this framework, so that any person and any enterprise can deploy and contribute to the platform, at no cost. This approach has enabled mass adoption across industry and clients, fostering innovation and collaboration in 95 countries and in agencies across the U.S. government. To join the discussion, ask questions, and contribute to the Jenkins Templating Engine, visit our community on Gitter or join us at the next online meetup.

As of September 2020, the Jenkins Templating Engine developed by Booz Allen has fostered open source innovation and collaboration in 95 countries as well as the U.S. federal government.
