Svarupa DevOps Transformation
Overview
Svarupa, a 501(c)(3) non-profit initiative based in California, USA, is dedicated to the digital transformation and equitable dissemination of knowledge, primarily drawn from the profound wisdom of ancient Sanskrit scriptures. Svarupa’s platform caters to a diverse audience, ranging from academic researchers to spiritual seekers, offering resources tailored to various levels of understanding and spiritual awareness.
Svarupa, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization with a mission to provide access to digital content and tools that aim to balance the expansion of material on this planet with increasing awareness of the spirit and planet for ensuring a truly sustainable future for humanity. Svarupa’s commitment is to create an interactive digital environment that safeguards the integrity of the sacred scriptures and enables an engaging exchange of wisdom, connecting individuals to material that resonates with their spiritual journey.
Situation
Svarupa is a pioneering digital repository hosting a wealth of authentic Sanskrit manuscripts and scholarly works, initially focusing on the Veda Samhitas. Recognizing the limited historical efforts in decoding and sharing Vedic wisdom. Svarupa’s modernization goals involved integrating cloud solutions with #DevOps capabilities, empowering users worldwide to access, interpret, and learn from the Vedas with ease.
Task
To achieve this vision on a global scale, Svarupa needed an advanced #DevOps Infrastructure to handle the volume and complexity of Search, Sort, and Index such sacred texts. Additionally, challenges in processing, managing, and providing access to these documents at a global level specifically designed for Sanskrit text interpretation.
Svarupa aspires to bridge this gap, making this ancient knowledge globally accessible through a robust online platform with Advanced Global Search, Vedas Sorting, and Indexing by embracing #DevOps to enable it in further strengthening the company’s developer culture, the foundation of which was laid by Soulax’s Expert consultation. #DevOps, which uses automation, monitoring, and continuous integration of new code to achieve faster development cycles and more frequent, more reliable releases, is a natural fit for Svarupa’s Mission which wants to be as responsive to customer feedback as possible.
Svarupa has a cloud-first policy, under which all new applications are architected for and deployed in the cloud and is steadily increasing its use of microservices and open, integrated architectures, so that insights are only as valuable as their ability to act quickly on them, and that’s what #DevOps helps Svarupa to do.
Action
Soulax specializes in designing & deploying robust #DevOps infrastructure through a systematic approach that helped Svarupa’s mission to build an efficient global platform with an Advanced search engine, Vedas Sorting, and Scriptures Indexing.
The Svarupa’s Application is designed with a robust CMS (Content Management system), supporting different file formats, i.e. Scriptures (Suktas, mantras), Audio, and Images.
