What is DevOps? Why do you Need DevOps?

Overview
A Lot of Grey. That is what the enterprise
software developers think when it comes to
defining the concept of Development and
Operations or DevOps as it is known in the IT
service industry. DevOps phase is an
established and definitive relationship stage
between Development phase and IT
Operations. It is important to promote
communication and collaboration between the
two units from the point of management and
productivity.

So What Is DevOps From

An IT Perspective?

DevOps is a management culture that improves the IT

service delivery agility on the basis of:
Communication
Collaboration
Integration

It is the platform that identifies the relationship

between various tools, ideas and themes of
software development and IT operations, using
rapid iterations and continuous improvement.

So in broader sense, DevOps is a cultural change towards accepting the norms of

Agile Software development, paving way for continuous development cycle, keeping
in mind the cross functions, responsibilities and goals shared with IT operations.

DevOps Ecosystem

DevOps runs on trust between two significantly

productive and automated processes. With growing
demand for a Developer + Operations profile in IT, it is a
valid proof that the industry is indeed moving towards
accepting DevOps as real and thriving.

In IT, DevOps is recognized as a cultural

approach. From job of point of view, it is a job
description for a candidate who has the talentskill to work as a Systems Operations engineer
as well as a developer.

Integrating DevOps in your software development cycle has many

benefits, and that is why modern applications rely a lot on Agile.

Why You Should Integrate DevOps In

Your Software Development Process:

1. Quicker Mitigation of Software Defects

With better
communication and
collaboration between
operations and software
development, you can
identify and mitigate
defects at any stage of the
development cycle. The
same culture can be
applied to Application
development, where
defects prove costlier.

2. Better Resource Management

During the application and software development stage, developers and testers are constantly waiting
for resources to arrive causing delays in delivery. Agile with DevOps ensures that the app development
arrives in testing phase much quicker than existing operations.

3. Reduced Human
Errors

DevOps reduces the chances of human

errors during development and
operations process by deploying
frequent iterations. Lower the
application failure rate with multiple
deployments in the process in a
defined timeline.

4. Enhanced Version Control

Emphasizing on the
individuals and interactions,
DevOps allows the developers
to leverage on programmable
dynamic infrastructure at all
stages of software/
application development
cycle. It allows version
control and automated
coding options.

5. Stable Operating Environment

Stability is the key to any business platform, and DevOps is

established to bring stability with reliability. Organizations with
DevOps get their deployment 30 times faster than their rivals
with 50% lesser chances of failure.

Using DevOps, you can move from idea phase to a final software version faster despite having
multiple incremental improvements related to performance, sales and stability in the long run.
