How Automatic Infrastructure Scanning Works in GINC RADAR
When your company has dozens of projects, hundreds of repositories, and millions of lines of code, answering a simple question becomes surprisingly hard:
What technologies are we actually using?
Even in large IT organizations, the answer often relies on outdated Excel sheets, team surveys, or architects’ assumptions.
The reality? What’s “on paper” rarely matches what’s in production.
GINC RADAR changes that — through automated infrastructure scanning.
Here’s how it works and why it’s become a strategic tool for CTOs, architects, and team leads.
Why Manual Audits Fail
Traditional technology audits have three major flaws:
They’re outdated instantly. A list of technologies becomes obsolete in weeks as new libraries appear daily.
They depend on human input. Developers might forget a dependency, misreport a version, or miss duplicates.
They’re costly. Manual surveys, spreadsheets, and cross-checks take weeks — pulling experts away from real work.
How GINC RADAR Scans Your Infrastructure
GINC RADAR connects directly to your company’s Git repositories — including GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and others.
It automatically analyzes project contents, collects full lists of libraries, versions, and usage frequency, and builds a real, data-driven map of your tech stack.
Each technology is linked to its latest available version.
GINC RADAR shows exactly how far behind your implementation is — especially crucial for components with known vulnerabilities.
The results are displayed on an interactive radar dashboard:
Circular sectors represent technology domains (Languages, Databases, Infrastructure, DevOps tools).
Rings indicate adoption levels and maturity within the company.
Architects and team leads can instantly see:
Which technologies are actively used,
Which are outdated,
Where duplication occurs,
Which libraries require urgent updates.
Strategic Benefits for Architects and Team Leads
For architects, automatic scanning keeps the technology map always up to date — without manual checks.
For team leads, it’s a migration planning tool: easily identify critical libraries, assess risks, and schedule safe updates.
Integration with Jira makes it even more powerful:
Migration and update tasks can be automatically created directly from the radar dashboard.
What used to be a chaotic, reactive process becomes structured and proactive.
Example: Real-World Case
Imagine a company with 50 repositories.
Manually creating a list of technologies would take several engineers 2–3 weeks, and the data would already be outdated a month later.
GINC RADAR connects to those same 50 repositories and, within a few hours, delivers complete visibility:
Detects 120 unique libraries
Identifies that 30% are outdated
Finds a single library used in 80% of projects, requiring a priority migration
Instead of weeks of manual work, the architect gets a ready-to-use technology map and a clear set of priorities.
Why It Matters for the Business
Automatic scanning isn’t just a technical convenience — it’s a strategic advantage for the entire company.
Reduced risk: outdated components no longer lead to vulnerabilities or outages.
Cost optimization: duplicate technologies can be eliminated, freeing up budget.
Executive transparency: CTOs gain objective, up-to-date data for strategic planning.
In a world where technology stacks grow more complex every year, visibility is critical to success.
Manual audits and Excel sheets can’t keep up.
GINC RADAR automates infrastructure scanning and empowers architects, team leads, and CTOs to make data-driven decisions — reducing technical debt, minimizing risk, and making technology management transparent and predictable.
