DevOps is an acronym that combines the words development and operations.
It refers to a collaborative approach to the tasks carried out by an organization’s application development and IT operations teams. An organization’s development and operations teams can work together more efficiently with DevOps. It entails developing software iteratively, automating deployment and maintaining infrastructure, and using programmable tools. Additionally, the term describes culture changes such as building trust and cohesion between developers and system administrators and aligning technological projects with business needs. By integrating DevOps, best practices, tools, IT roles, the software delivery chain and services can be radically changed.
Although DevOps is not a technology per se, its methodologies are common to a lot of DevOps environments.
These include the following:
- Focusing on task automation is essential for continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) tools.
- Monitoring, incident management, and integration solutions that support DevOps adoption
- Concurrently implementing cloud computing, microservices, and containers with DevOps.
Benefits of DevOps:
To execute IT projects that meet business needs, DevOps provides a variety of options.
Agile software development, ITIL, Lean and Six Sigma, and other methodologies are compatible with DevOps too!
