Connectica

Development platform as a service

A foundation for application development. Ready to use and managed.

We provide a ready-to-use internal DevOps platform for startups and larger development teams. Your developers use tools for building, checking and deploying applications. We develop and manage the shared foundation, hosted mainly on Connectica infrastructure.

When the service fits

Does this match what your team needs?

Start with the work you need to get done and the capacity of your team.

01NEW PROJECT

You need a development foundation

You want established builds, checks and deployment for your next application.

02MANAGEMENT

Developers also have to maintain their tools

Maintaining the development platform takes time away from your own product.

03TEAMS

You need a common process across applications

You want consistent checks and release procedures across projects.

How the service works

Developed and operated by Connectica

We maintain the shared foundation and agree how it connects to your applications and infrastructure.

CI/CDGitLabKubernetes
01

English-language support

Support is provided in Czech and English. Standard first response is within 3 business days, Monday–Friday. A separately priced SLA can provide a 4-hour response and weekend coverage. These are response times, not guaranteed resolution times.

02

Scope-based pricing

Setup is charged once. Monthly operation depends on cluster size, workloads, catalogue applications and pod capacity used. Usage above the agreed baseline is automatically billed at agreed rates. Replacing a pod during a restart or deployment is not an additional billable event. New features and customer-specific integrations are separately priced development.

03

Shared foundation, managed by us

You use our tools as a service. Platform source code remains with Connectica and is not accessible to customers.

Service details

Shared development that benefits multiple teams

We develop the platform continuously, selecting services for your applications, working practices and integration needs.

Change validation

Automated builds and tests help identify issues before deployment.

02VERSIONS

Release history

Application versions and changes have a traceable history.

03INTEGRATION

Your applications and tools

We review integration options against your existing development process and target environments.

04DEVELOPMENT

Platform updates

Connectica maintains the shared foundation and introduces improvements.

Frequently asked questions

Before we get started

01Who is the service for?

Startups and larger development teams that need managed development and testing infrastructure without building their own operations platform.

02Do we get our own cluster?

The standard is a dedicated customer cluster on Connectica infrastructure, not dedicated physical hardware. We also provide dedicated GitLab runners or Azure DevOps agents. Developers have scoped access for debugging their applications, with our team available to help when they get stuck.

03How does the application catalogue work?

You select applications and Connectica deploys them on request. We handle updates, backups and ongoing management. A customer self-service portal is planned, not currently available.

04Do we receive platform source code?

No. You use our tools and services without access to platform source code. Connectica retains development and management of the shared foundation.

05How is the service billed?

Setup is charged once. Monthly operation depends on cluster size, workloads, catalogue applications and pod capacity used. Usage above the agreed baseline is automatically billed at agreed rates. Replacing a pod during a restart or deployment is not an additional billable event. New features and customer-specific integrations are separately priced development.

06Do you offer virtual developer workstations?

VDI is currently a prototype that can be manually prepared for evaluation by arrangement. It is not a standard service component and automated onboarding is not offered as a finished feature.

07How quickly do you respond and in which language?

Support is provided in Czech and English. Standard first response is within 3 business days, Monday–Friday. A separately priced SLA can provide a 4-hour response and weekend coverage. These are response times, not guaranteed resolution times.
