Devops Definition ¶

DevOps (a clipped compound of “development” and “operations”) is a software engineering culture and practice that aims at unifying software development (Dev) and software operation (Ops).

The main characteristic of the DevOps movement is to strongly advocate automation and monitoring at all steps of software construction, from integration, testing, releasing to deployment and infrastructure management.

DevOps aims at shorter development cycles, increased deployment frequency, more dependable releases, in close alignment with business objectives.
