Case Study: Hong Kong Jockey Club achieves agile operations for 2,000 employees with Appnovation

Enabling agile operations for 2000 employees at one of Hong Kong’s oldest institutions

Hong Kong Jockey Club, one of Hong Kong’s oldest institutions, needed an IT ecosystem solution to support more agile ways of writing, reviewing, building, testing, and packaging applications across its teams. The organization also wanted the right development and digital tools to unify methodologies and improve collaboration for its DevOps team, and turned to Appnovation for help.

Appnovation evaluated tools including GitHub, Bitbucket, and Jira, then worked on site with HKJC developers to implement a Git workflow with source control, branch permissions, and artifact management. The result was a more agile operating model and a knowledge-transfer-friendly solution for the DevOps team, with HKJC developers trained as part of the engagement.
