How Long Does It Take to Set Up a DevOps Pipeline?

A basic DevOps pipeline can be set up in 1 to 2 weeks. A fully automated pipeline with cloud infrastructure, monitoring, and security integration can take 2 to 3 months depending on your existing setup and requirements.

Here is a simple breakdown:

What can affect the timeline:

• Existing Infrastructure. If you already have some setup in place we build on top of it which saves time. Starting from scratch takes longer.
• Number of Environments. Setting up and connecting development, staging, and production environments separately adds time to the overall setup.
• Automation Scope. The more you want automated like testing, deployments, rollbacks, and alerts the more configuration and testing is required before everything runs smoothly.
• Team Onboarding. Getting your development team trained and comfortable with the new pipeline is a step most businesses underestimate and we always build it into the timeline.
