DevOps is a set of practices and a culture that unites software development and IT operations, using shared ownership and automation such as CI/CD and infrastructure as code to deliver changes quickly and reliably.
DevOps is a set of cultural practices, processes and tools that brings software development and IT operations together so that teams can deliver changes faster and more reliably. Instead of developers handing finished code to a separate operations group, shared teams own services through build, deployment and operation. Automation is central: continuous integration and delivery, infrastructure as code, automated testing and monitoring replace manual hand-offs.
DevOps practices are used across software companies, banks, telecoms and manufacturers building digital products, and increasingly in industrial software, where controlled pipelines deliver updates to edge devices and plant applications. Commonly reported benefits include shorter lead times, more frequent releases and faster recovery from failures. Related disciplines include DevSecOps, which builds security checks into the pipeline, and site reliability engineering.
DevOps cannot be bought as a tool: it requires changes in team structure, incentives and shared responsibility for production. Common pitfalls include creating a separate DevOps team that becomes a new silo and automating unstable processes without improving them. Progress is often measured with the DORA metrics, and the CALMS framework (culture, automation, lean, measurement and sharing) describes its main elements.
Key points
- Development and operations share ownership of services from build to production
- Relies on automation: CI/CD, infrastructure as code, testing and monitoring
- DevSecOps extends the approach by building security checks into pipelines
- Often measured with DORA metrics and described with the CALMS framework
