How to reduce infrastructure costs
Blackbird reduces infrastructure costs by:
- Eliminating separate environments: provide a dedicated, production-like environment.
- Built-in API mocking: dynamic and static mocking to reduce reliance on expensive third-party servers.
- On-demand access: Instant access to testing environments without setup.
The bottom line: save money with fewer idle resources and fewer CI runs, while your team gets more done faster.
How to improve time-to-value
Blackbird improves time-to-value by:
- Efficient development loops: focus on cycle time and change failure rate.
- Built-in hybrid development: combine local and remote development benefits.
- On-demand test environments: containerized environments available on demand.
The bottom line: developers spend less time on resource management and more time building products, with resources scaling automatically.
How to reduce risk
Blackbird reduces risk by:
- Early and continuous testing: test in isolated, production-like settings.
- Automated testing: built-in automation and industry-standard frameworks.
- Shift left testing: Identify and fix issues early to prevent production failures.
The bottom line: ensure high-quality output and minimize costly errors and security vulnerabilities.
How to improve developer experience (DevEx)
Blackbird improves DevEx by:
- Simplified development: streamline container-based development.
- Parallel work: enable front-end and back-end teams to work simultaneously.
- Seamless collaboration: reduce integration headaches and context switching.
The bottom line: keep engineers focused on their primary role, accelerating development cycles and improving job satisfaction.
