o According to Forrester, As IT organizations struggle to deal
with the changing IT and business landscapes, the concept
of DevOps (development + operations = DevOps) has been
singled out by many as the way in which infrastructure and
operations (I&O) can better work with other IT silos to benefit
the business. Getting DevOps right will address many of the
issues enterprises consistently have with IT, such as
applications failing to meet both functional and nonfunctional
requirements, delivery delays, increased costs, and an
inflexibility to change. Success will require mastering six
steps
▪ Change your change management.
▪ Communicate more often with the app dev group to
increase its knowledge about Operations.
▪ Consider app dev as “service dev.”
▪ Understand and manage the diversity of views on IT
delivery.
▪ Integrate I&O’s mission statement with the business.

DevOps is a term used to refer to a set of practices that emphasize the collaboration and
communication of both ‘software developers’ and ‘Operations Support’ professionals while automating
the process of software delivery and infrastructure changes.
It aims at establishing a culture and environment, where building, testing, and releasing software can
happen rapidly, frequently, and more reliably
