What is DevOps?

DevOps breaks down silos between development and operations teams, enabling faster, more reliable software delivery through cultural practices and automation. It emphasises continuous integration, continuous deployment, infrastructure as code, monitoring, and incident response, creating a smooth pipeline from developer commit to production release.

The DORA State of DevOps report shows that elite DevOps performers deploy 973x more frequently with 6,570x faster lead times compared to low performers. DevOps practices reduce change failure rates by 3x and restore service 6,570x faster, making automation and CI/CD foundational to modern software delivery.
