Ten Things One Should know about DevOps


DevOps has taken the IT world by storm over the last few years and continues to transform the way organizations develop, deploy, monitor, and maintain applications, as well as modifying the underlying infrastructure. DevOps has quickly evolved from a niche concept to a business imperative and companies of all sizes should be striving to incorporate DevOps tools and principles.

The value of successful DevOps is quantifiable. According to the 2015 State of DevOps Report, organizations that effectively adopt DevOps deploy software 30 times more frequently and with 200 times shorter lead times than competing organizations that have yet to embrace DevOps.

They also have 60 times fewer failures, and recover from those failures 168 timesfaster. Those are impressive numbers and define why succeeding at DevOps is so important for organizations to remain competitive today.

As the DevOps revolution continues, though, many enterprises are still watching curiously from the sidelines trying to understand what it's all about. Some have jumped in, yet are struggling to succeed. But one thing's certain — it's a much greater challenge to succeed at DevOps if your CIO doesn't grasp what it is or how to adopt it effectively.
