DevOps is an approach to overcome the challenges of today’s business and defines an overall cultural shift in software engineering methodologies.
To gain a competitive edge, organisations are looking to eliminate long app development cycles and legacy processes. Additionally, there’s a need to maximize revenue cycle by reducing time-to-market, producing error-free products, and ensuring a close association between teams at a high velocity.
By bridging the gap between software development and operation, organisations can strengthen collaboration and communication among the teams. DevOps removes the barriers between two traditionally siloed teams – development and operations – and reorganize them into cross-functional, autonomous teams that can work on projects from start to finish.
Benefits of DevOps
DevOps increases an organization’s ability to deliver applications and services faster than traditional software development processes. It speeds the delivery of higher quality software by automating and integrating the efforts of these two groups that traditionally practiced separately from each other, or in silos.
Implementing close collaboration between development and operations at every step in the DevOps lifecycle as well as the cultural shift required for the same helps optimize the rapid delivery of software to meet users’ ever-increasing demand for feature additions and performance upgrades as well as compete more effectively in the market.
There’s also DevSecOps, the process that continuously integrates and automates security throughout the DevOps lifecycle making security a first-class citizen and stakeholder along with development and operations.
