Software companies closing the gap between themselves by approaching their projects from a productive angle which does not compromise with its security and reliability. Moreover, every software developing companies are behaving similar as possible, this is to mimic the productivity of successful of enterprises. This added pressure leads to miscommunication, conflict of ideas, and lack of consensus. This is a typical situation where DevOps can be used to find a truce between the concerned individuals. The question DevOps answers are “how to get development team, operations team and other relevant groups within the concern to collaborate around a set of shared intention, to develop and deliver a software faster and more reliably to clients and end users? The DevOps initiative is getting the developers and operations to assimilate their priorities to a common set of goals which are correlative and reciprocal to both teams.
A culture more than a tool
DevOps is closer to a work culture than a tool for development and deployment of a software development cycle. This work culture cannot be directly compared to the traditional and existing models such as waterfall or agile. DevOps, in fact, complements the existing work models pretty well. The DevOps methodology is more focused on the end part of the software development cycle.
Development and deployment
Beyond the land of development lies deployment where more checks and balances happen to see how well the software performs beyond its natural habitat of staging. This where the clash of ideas and ideals happen. DevOps is the truce which is beneficial to all parties involved.
Rules and Regulations
There is no standard principle, philosophy for DevOps instead this method is all about approaching project on individual case basis. To make DevOps work, one can combine Scrum with operations, or Kanban with operations, etc. In a DevOps habitat, cross-functionality operations, shared goals, shared responsibilities, and trust is all promoted and boosted. DevOps basically extends the continuous development goals of the Agile methodology to continuous integration and continuous delivery.
