DevOps

What does DevOps mean?

DevOps is a methodology that promotes collaboration between the development and operations teams in IT in order to deliver software faster and more efficiently. The aim is to shorten development cycles, minimize quality issues and increase automation in software delivery. DevOps combines technical tools and cultural practices to improve collaboration.

Advantages and key technologies

DevOps promotes continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD), which allows new software versions to be brought to market more quickly. Core technologies include containerization (e.g. Docker), orchestration (e.g. Kubernetes) and monitoring tools (e.g. Prometheus, Grafana). By implementing DevOps, companies can improve their responsiveness to customer requirements and reduce operating costs.
