DevOps

DevOps is a set of practices that combines; software development (Dev) and IT Operations (Ops) to improve the speed, quality, and reliability of software releases and deployments. DevOps aims to break down the silos between development and operations teams, enabling them to work together more effectively throughout the entire Software Development LifeCycle (SDLC).

Typical benefits of DevOps practices are:

• Faster Time-to-Market: Reduce the time it takes to develop and deploy software.
• Improved Quality: Improve software quality through continuous testing and feedback.
• Increased Efficiency: Automate repetitive tasks and processes to reduce manual effort.
  • Typically used for these tasks are;
    • Ansible,
    • Terraform.
• Better Collaboration: Foster collaboration between development and operations teams to improve communication and reduce silos.
  • GitOps is the new "kid on the block" to improve collaboration between development teams and operations teams.
• Reduced Costs: Reduce costs by reducing the need for manual testing and deployment.
