What is DevOps ?

Oswald De Riemaecker
February 15, 2017
In a DevOps model, development and operations teams are no longer working in Silo. These teams are generally merged into a single team where they work on the entire application lifecycle, from development and test to deployment to operations.

DevOps:

“DevOps is the combination of cultural philosophies, practices, and tools that increases an organization’s ability to deliver applications and services at high velocity: evolving and improving products at a faster pace than organizations using traditional software development and infrastructure management processes. This speed enables organizations to better serve their customers and compete more effectively in the market.” – Amazon Web Services

In a DevOps model, development and operations teams are no longer working in Silo. These teams are generally merged into a single team where they work on the entire application lifecycle, from development and test to deployment to operations. Its one of the Agile principes recommendation of having a cross-functional team which generally include:

  • Developers

  • Operations Engineers

  • Quality assurance Engineers

  • Security Engineers

These teams use practices and tools to automate processes that were done manually and slow and focus on the following practices:

  • Continuous Development

  • Continuous Integration

  • Continuous Testing

  • Continuous Delivery/Deployment

  • Continuous Monitoring

Organizations using a DevOps model have teams that view the entire development and infrastructure lifecycle as part of their responsibilities. Continuous work with you on this cultural change and iteratively implement the practices and tools by coaching your team.

I am an Agile and DevOps Evangelist. By working for many years on various projects, I have been experiencing diverse project management methodologies, Agile values, principles and practices have proven to be the most successful. I like to be part of teams working on a new product, from its vision to User Stories writing and specifications by the example. I like to use brainstorming techniques and serious games to shape a product and its vision. I support and coach development teams so that they implement these principles and practices, including Agile development such as Unit Testing, BDD, Continuous Integration/Delivery and Deployment. Being a Linux and Open Source supporter for many years, I am a firm believer in the DevOps culture. I coach and give the best tools to organisations in order to streamline their product development till production and beyond. I like shaping everything as code so I can build scalable cloud native applications. I partnered with the continuousphp team, a PHP Centric PaaS to build, package, test and deploy applications in the same workflow. This platform is born of our shared experience gained these past years.
