A Los Olivos winery needed 24/7 cloud reliability, here’s how we delivered it
For your Los Olivos business.
Trusted by companies across the USA
A boutique vineyard in Los Olivos was losing $18,000 per month in spoiled inventory because their AWS-based order processing system kept crashing during harvest season. Their in-house team could handle development, but keeping Kubernetes pods stable and CI/CD pipelines flowing required a specialist they couldn’t find locally. We matched them with a DevOps engineer who spent the first week auditing their infrastructure, then spent the next three months stabilizing deployments so their systems never went down during peak sales. The winery’s owner told us it was the first time their online orders had stayed open through a harvest weekend.
Los Olivos isn’t just wine country, it’s also home to growing tech startups, local manufacturers, and small businesses that suddenly need enterprise-grade DevOps without the enterprise price tag. A San Francisco tech company with a remote team stumbled into the same problem when they relocated three employees to Los Olivos during the pandemic. Their CI/CD pipeline, built for a 50-person team, couldn’t handle the latency of developers working from home routers. We stepped in to optimize their Docker builds and introduced Terraform to spin up identical staging environments in under 30 minutes. The result? Their deployment time dropped from 45 minutes to 7 minutes, and their developers could finally work without blaming each other for broken builds.
The pattern repeats across California wine country and beyond: a business hits a DevOps ceiling when growth outpaces their infrastructure. A Santa Ynez Valley e-commerce store selling olive oil and gourmet foods needed to scale their order volume by 300% for the holidays. Their monolithic PHP backend couldn’t handle the load, and rewriting it would have taken six months. Instead, we containerized their application with Docker, migrated it to AWS EKS, and set up auto-scaling that handled Black Friday traffic without breaking a sweat. The store owner later told us the only thing that broke that holiday was the UPS truck, not their website.
These aren’t hypotheticals, they’re the real problems DevOps engineers solve every week. We’ve built our process around remote collaboration that feels local. Your DevOps engineer will be based in India, working during your business hours with daily standups at 9 AM Pacific and asynchronous updates via Slack. Code reviews happen in GitHub, infrastructure changes are documented in Terraform, and you own every keystroke from day one. The technology stack is just the tools, what matters is the outcome: reliable systems that let you focus on running your business instead of firefighting servers.
Since 2015, we’ve helped California businesses scale without adding local headcount. Our engineers have worked with wineries in Napa, manufacturers in Fresno, and startups in Silicon Beach, all remotely from Gandhinagar.
You get one engineer embedded in your team, not a rotating cast of contractors. They learn your systems, your culture, and your business rhythms, then optimize them from the inside out.
Every server, container, and pipeline is defined in Terraform or Kubernetes manifests. No more ‘works on my machine’ disasters. If it breaks at 2 AM, your engineer can rebuild it in code.
Your DevOps engineer starts their day at 9 AM Pacific and overlaps with your team for 4-5 hours. Standups, code reviews, and urgent issues get immediate attention, no waiting for someone to wake up.
We bill by the hour with a fixed monthly cap for each engagement model. You’ll never get a bill that says ‘we discovered an emergency’, our engineers work on prevention, not firefighting.
Every line of configuration, every script, every Dockerfile belongs to you on day one. Migrate away at any time with zero lock-in. We’ve never had a client ask us to retrieve their code from a ‘black box’ system.
Your DevOps engineer works 40 hours per week, fully dedicated to your systems. Ideal for businesses with ongoing infrastructure needs or seasonal peaks like harvest season in wine country.
Perfect for small businesses or startups that need DevOps coverage without a full-time salary. Your engineer works 20 hours per week, with flexibility to ramp up during crunch periods.
For one-off projects or urgent fixes. You pay only for the hours worked, with no minimum commitment. Our engineers average 15-20 billable hours per week in this model.
Need a full DevOps squad? We can assemble a team of 2-4 engineers working in tandem, with one senior engineer overseeing the work. Common for businesses scaling from startup to enterprise.
We start with a 30-minute call to map your current pain points. No sales pitch, just listening. If you mention your staging environment takes six hours to deploy or your Kubernetes cluster crashes weekly, we’ll note it and move to matching.
Within 48 hours, we introduce you to your DevOps engineer via a 15-minute intro call. You’ll see their resume, past project summaries, and a quick screen recording of them explaining their approach to your specific stack.
Your engineer spends their first week shadowing your team, reviewing your infrastructure diagrams, and documenting everything in your preferred format. By Friday, they’ll have a Terraform plan ready to test in your staging environment.
Every two weeks, we schedule a 30-minute planning session. You prioritize the backlog, they estimate the work, and you see a working build by the end of the sprint. No surprises, just steady progress toward stability.
Daily standups at 9 AM Pacific. Weekly demos showing what changed. Monthly retrospectives identifying what to keep and what to improve. Your engineer becomes part of your team without ever setting foot in Los Olivos.
"Ritik and his team at Aneri Developers are top notch! We have been working together for almost 2+ years now and the project continues to evolve exactly how I had envisioned it. His communication is amazing and his attention to detail is even better! The mobile app and back office that we have created has freed up so much of my day to day while also giving my clients much better transparency and service in return too. His pricing is very fair and I feel extremely lucky to have him helping behind the scenes and growing my business! I look forward to all our future endeavors and continued success. Thank you!"
"I used Aneri Developers to build a campaign website. They were responsive, creative and handled any web-site related problems promptly. The turnaround time to implement updates was impeccable. Rutvik was also very patient and gracious. I recommend Aneri Developers for your website development needs."
"Great developer. On Time. Reasonable pricing. I trust working with him. We have an on going business now!"
