DevOps organization: cultural change and working methods in IT
DevOps
The introduction of DevOps is not a small step, but a leap into a new work culture. Your IT needs to change, and that doesn't just apply to software development. With DevOps, everything becomes faster, more automated and more collaborative. Roles change and responsibility is suddenly shared - from idea to operation. Ready for the transformation? Then let's get started!
Why DevOps?
In order to react quickly and flexibly to new business requirements, development and operations need to work better together and coordinate their processes. DevOps makes it possible: agile methods are transferred to IT operations and standard models for software development and IT operations are combined. This gives you shorter release cycles and minimizes the risk of quality problems because the same procedures are used identically and without disruption throughout the entire software process. Ready for the turbo?
DevOps - mehr als nur Technologie
"Tech is easy - humans are hard"
Hannah Foxwell, DevOps Days ZH
To live DevOps successfully, companies often have to change their way of working and culture. DevOps brings major changes, similar to agile methods. This transformation affects the entire IT department, not just software development.
The potential benefits of DevOps are enormous and worthwhile. Better collaboration between business, development and operations leads to innovative solutions that reach the customer faster. Security and quality assurance are integrated into the process at an early stage - "shift left".
Software only adds value if it is used. Getting there is often long and difficult. Long development, testing and integration phases delay the market launch and impair quality. Automation is essential to shorten this path - from simple tasks to the full automation of entire environments.
