Pressed for time? Here’s the TL;DR:

Keeping track of all resources within your Software Catalog is painful and quickly gets deprecated. As an answer, we are launching Rely’s Internal Developer Portal

Main features:

• Live Software Catalog: your connected and kept-up-to-date inventory
• Scorecards: to define and push adoption of industry or custom standards across your teams and services
• Status Page: provide live status information to all internal stakeholders, technical and business oriented
• Homepage: build the view that fits your needs and groups in one place information you keep an eye on daily

Introduction

A few months ago we announced our Service Reliability Management product. It was built to help organizations turn the adoption of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) best practices from a dreaded task into as much of a frictionless task as possible (e.g. templating or even automating Service Level Objectives (SLOs) definition and tracking at various levels). As we worked with our customers to set them on a path of reliability excellence, there was a common hurdle being met over and over.

As an SRE user put it:

“We try to enable engineering teams on the “business alignment” thinking and how SLOs help bridge this gap. They are receptive to it, the buy-in is genuine, but almost every time conversations get stuck around inventory. They don’t even know exactly what Services they are running at any given point, what operations they are responsible for performing, or how they are linked to other resources.”

For modern engineering teams, keeping track of all components of the software ecosystem can indeed be a daunting task (there is only so much you can achieve in spreadsheets and static documentation pages afterall). 

Working hand in hand with our users, we have embraced the challenge, adapted roadmaps and co-built an answer to this pain point: we are introducing today Rely’s Internal Developer Portal (read more about IDPs here), designed to help you navigate the world of DevOps with ease and achieve engineering excellence.

In the fast-paced world of software engineering, maintaining a clear view of your organization's software ecosystem is like navigating through a dense forest without a map. That's why we're thrilled to introduce our latest innovation, Rely’s Internal Developer Portal, designed to simplify the complex landscape of DevOps and provide a single source of truth for your software ecosystem.

The challenges faced by engineering teams are more and more pressing when it comes to managing their software services, infrastructure, and tools. The lack of a live inventory that provides actionable intel about your resources can lead to confusion, inefficiencies, and unnecessary downtime. 

Even more staggering is the hurdle companies face when tackling the lack of standardization in processes and operational maturity between services or teams. How then can they uniformly measure performance, push for its increase or for the adoption of new standards?

Rely’s IDP is here to change that.

With the IDP, we're empowering engineering teams to take control of their software ecosystem. Whether you're looking to streamline your DevOps processes, align your teams with operational standards, or gain real-time insights into your product's health, our Internal Developer Portal has you covered.

Rely's IDP provides developers with intuitive, self-service access to DevOps resources and internal tools, ensuring a world-class developer experience. Furthermore, it also offers guidelines and guardrails, empowering developers with the autonomy they crave to ship new services, deploy changes, and troubleshoot incidents while making sure they are following best practices.
This allows your organization to increase their speed while maintaining a high quality bar.
