To keep up with the rapid pace of innovation, organizations of all kinds and sizes are adopting DevOps practices to better automate the delivery and operations of software in the cloud. A cultural phenomenon that impacts people and process as much as it does technology, DevOps brings teams together with the goal of removing barriers – the development teams responsible for building and shipping code, and the operations teams responsible for deploying and operating critical infrastructure. Together, these teams form the backbone of any technology company, which if you haven’t heard, is every company. Building a Culture of Automation DevOps isn’t just something you put a stamp on and call done; it’s an ongoing cross-functional effort. The rise of Infrastructure as a Service across AWS, GCP, and Azure has paved the way for the on-demand consumption model, but it takes a company-wide initiative to put DevOps into practice. For development.
