Google Cloud DevOps in Swansea
DevOps on Google Cloud for Swansea organisations, where the pipeline credential is the thing worth getting right. Continuous integration running outside the platform does not need a downloadable service account key — workload identity federation lets it authenticate directly, which removes the long-lived secret that otherwise sits in a settings page forever.
Why this comes up
The problem
A service account key is stored in the CI system, was created years ago and has never been rotated.
What you get
What we deliver
- Workload identity federation configured so pipelines authenticate without stored keys
- Existing service account keys inventoried and removed once federation is working
- Deployment permissions scoped per environment rather than shared across pipelines
- Infrastructure defined as code with the estate brought under it, including manual resources
- Artefact storage and image provenance established for what gets deployed
- Production deployment gated so releases are deliberate rather than automatic

Working in Swansea
Wales

Google Cloud DevOps in Swansea — common questions
- Why avoid service account keys?
- Because they are permanent and portable. A key stored in a CI system can be copied, is valid until somebody revokes it, and grants whatever the account holds — whereas federation issues short-lived credentials to a specific verified workload and leaves nothing to steal.
- Does federation work with our CI?
- It works with the major hosted providers and with any system that can present a verifiable identity token. The configuration is a one-off exercise per provider, after which pipelines authenticate without anybody handling a credential at all.
- How should deployment permissions be scoped?
- Per environment, and narrowly. A single identity that can deploy anywhere means any pipeline able to use it can reach production, so separate identities with only the permissions each environment requires keeps a mistake in one from reaching the others.
- What about resources created by hand?
- They should be brought into code. Anything created through the console is invisible to your definitions, so the estate cannot be recreated and drift accumulates until nobody trusts the code enough to run it — importing them is tedious and worth doing once.
- Do you work with businesses across Swansea?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Wales, including Swansea and the surrounding Swansea area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Swansea businesses do you usually work with?
- Bilingual public-facing systems for institutional clients, and seasonal booking for the Gower tourism trade. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Tourism and Public Sector.
- Do you cover the areas around Swansea?
- Yes — we work throughout Wales, including Cardiff, Newport. Swansea is an urban area of roughly 240,000+, and we take on work across the wider Swansea region rather than the city boundary alone.
