DevOps

What is DevOps?

DevOps is a combination of Development and Operations — it's a set of practices, tools, and cultural philosophies that aim to automate and integrate the processes between software development and IT operations.

The goal of DevOps is to:

  • Speed up the software delivery process

  • Improve collaboration between teams

  • Ensure higher quality and more reliable releases

Key concepts in DevOps:

  • Automation: Automating repetitive tasks like code integration, software testing, deployment, and infrastructure setup.

  • CI: Developers frequently merge code changes into a shared repository, which is automatically tested.

  • CD: Code changes are automatically deployed to production after passing tests.

  • Monitoring & logging: Continuous monitoring of applications and infrastructure to detect and resolve issues quickly.

  • Collaboration: Developers, QA, and operations teams work together closely, often sharing responsibilities.

  • Infrastructure as code (IaC): Managing infrastructure (like servers or databases) using code and automation tools (e.g., Terraform, Ansible).
