GitHub as a self-sustaining product for large-scale environments
summary
Scout24 consolidates four SCM systems into GitHub Enterprise Cloud and automates access and hygiene so 3,300+ repos and ~540 users run with minimal admin overhead. Automated SAML SSO via Auth0/Duo/Azure AD handles provisioning, a public repository killer lambda reverts unintended public repos, a user-management lambda revokes departed accounts, and Dependabot + probot-auto-merge keeps dependencies current. Goal of under one support request per day reaches about 90–95%, with team-sync and a read-only repo catalog still pending.
