DevOps
DevOps is a set of practices that combines software development (Dev) and IT operations (Ops) to shorten the time it takes to build, test, and release software.
How it works
It works by automating and streamlining the processes between these traditionally separate teams, fostering a culture of collaboration and shared responsibility. This matters because it enables faster, more reliable software delivery and updates, which is critical for modern businesses.
Examples
- 1.A team uses automated tools to instantly test and deploy code changes to a live website.
- 2.A company uses monitoring and logging tools to quickly identify and fix a performance issue in their application.
- 3.Setting up a continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline to automatically build and release a mobile app update.
