DevOps
What is DevOps?
DevOps is a set of practices designed to automate the processes between software development (Dev) and information technology operations (Ops) to build, test, and release software faster and more reliably. DevOps teams use microservices, sets of single, modular components, to break down a large project into independent building blocks, reducing failure points and overall project risk.
What are the benefits of DevOps for companies?
DevOps can deliver better, more reliable software faster, resulting in faster time-to-market, better customer service and more revenue opportunities for the organization. With improved collaboration and communication, DevOps speeds up the development and deployment process by delivering features, bug fixes, and updates. DevOps tools bridge the communication gap between development teams and IT professionals to quickly deliver tools that best meet the needs of businesses and customers.
DevOps is a change in IT culture that focuses on delivering IT services quickly through the implementation of flexible and cost-effective practices in the context of a systems-centric approach. DevOps focuses on people (and culture) and aims to improve collaboration between development and operations teams. DevOps implementations leverage technologies, especially automation tools, that can take advantage of an increasingly programmable and dynamic infrastructure from a lifecycle perspective.
Dev Ops focuses on the rapid implementation of technology through agile development. Dev Ops focuses on people and culture. The goal is to improve collaboration between operations and development teams.
