DevOps is a set of practices that combine software development (Dev) and IT operations (Ops). The goal of DevOps is to shorten the development life cycle and provide continuous delivery with high software quality. Below are some key practices in DevOps:

  • Automation: Automating repetitive tasks can save time and reduce the risk of human error.
  • Continuous Integration (CI): Continuous integration is the practice of automatically merging code changes from many contributors into a single mainline of code several times a day.
  • Continuous Delivery (CD): Continuous delivery is the practice of automating the process of software delivery to production.
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Infrastructure as code is the practice of managing and provisioning cloud infrastructure through machine-readable files.
  • Monitoring: Monitoring the performance and health of applications and infrastructure is crucial for identifying and resolving issues quickly.
