DevOps
What is DevOps?
DevOps is a software development methodology that accelerates the delivery of higher-quality applications and services by combining and automating the work of software development and IT operations . DevOps, developers and operations teams work closely together throughout the entire software development cycle, from planning and coding to testing, deployment, and monitoring.
What is Automation?
DevOps automation is a modern approach to software development that uses tools and processes to automate tasks and streamline workflows. It brings together developers, IT operations, and security teams to help them collaborate effectively and deliver reliable software. With DevOps automation, organizations are able to handle repetitive tasks, optimize processes, and deploy applications to production faster.
What is Scaling?
Scalibility means being able to handle the increased demand without compomising the speed of services. Tools like Docker Swarm, Kubernates and Apache Mesos provide scalibility feature.
What is Infrastructure?
Infrastructure in DevOps refers to Underlying the technology and resources to support software development, deployment and operation. It includes both physical and virtual components such as servers, networking equipment, storage device,operatings system,databases and middleware. Few tools available for implementation of infrastructure as code are Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, Ansible, chef, puppet and many more.
Why DevOps is Important?
Continuous delivery of software
Better collaboration between teams
Easy deployment
Better efficiency and scalability
Errors are fixed at the initial stage
More security
Less manual intervention (which means fewer chances of error)
