Our Design Principles

DevOps

DevOps is the combination of cultural philosophies, practices and tools that increases an organisation’s ability to deliver applications and services at high velocity; evolving and improving services at a faster pace than organisations using traditional software development & infrastructure management processes – enabling to better serve customers.

Infrastructure As Code

A fundamental principle of DevOps is to treat infrastructure the same way developers treat code.

Infrastructure was traditionally provisioned using a combination of scripts and manual processes. Sometimes these scripts were stored in version control systems or documented step by step in text files or run-books. Often the person writing the run books is not the same person executing these scripts or following through the run-books. If these scripts or run books are not updated frequently, they can potentially become a show-stopper in deployments. This results in the creation of new environments not always being repeatable, reliable, or consistent.

In contrast, we use a DevOps-focused way of creating and maintaining infrastructure. Similar to the way software developers write application code, we enable the creation, deployment and maintenance of our infrastructure in a programmatic, descriptive, and declarative way.

These services provide rigour, clarity and reliability.

Innovation

The introduction of something new or different.

At mfor media, innovation & invention is always part of our approach. We develop with the customer in mind and we don’t use technology for technology’s sake – only when it solves a problem or benefits the customer.

We believe that the solution to most problems can be solved with creative thinking. When we have an idea or find a solution; we test & iterate before making decision on whether we adopt. We try to fail fast and always learn something from the outcome.

Giving Back

Giving back is important to us. We understand that businesses can play a crucial role in transforming and supporting the communities where we live and work through collaborations, initiatives and creative strategies.

We aim to foster a culture of giving so we make every effort to give back – by inspiring strategy & leadership or financially – partnering with nonprofit organisations knowing our business and community will be better off for it.
