Why DevOps?
DevOps is not a tool - it’s an approach and a culture with an objective to optimize SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) by bringing development and operations closer. It’s an entirely new ideology that has swept IT organizations worldwide - boosting project life cycles and, in turn, increasing profits. DevOps promotes collaboration between development engineers and operations, participating together in the entire service lifecycle, from design through the development process to production support..
All you need to know about DevOps:
‘Dev’ is a blanket term for all kinds of software developers while ‘Ops’ encompasses system engineers, system administrators, operations staff, release engineers, DBAs, network engineers, security professionals, and various other sub-disciplines. When combined, DevOps bridges the ageless gap between Development and Ops by reducing uncertainties of release and change. It also brings down risk factors involved in various stages of release management, such as Build, Deploy, Test, and Continuous Improvement.
Proliferation of the DevOps movement has brought with it a myriad of career opportunities for various skills. Depending on your inclination or nature of work, you will probably find yourself the right fit.

Example Case Study
Problem Statement:
Company AppleBite is using Cloud for one of their products. The product is built using different frameworks, many modular components, and each component is developed by different teams, third-party partners, or open source libraries. As the product has evolved, there have been multiple versions of different code, and multiple versions of these many components, plus multiple environments to deploy, such as INT, E2E, SANDBOX, and PROD. This has caused the following problems:
The company’s goal is to deliver the product frequently to the production server with high-quality and reliability. This can be achieved by implementing the DevOps processes like: continuous integration, test automation and continuous deployment and monitoring.

Problem Statement:
Company AppleBite is using Cloud for one of their products.

As the product has evolved, there have been multiple versions of different code, and multiple versions of these many components, plus multiple environments to deploy, such as INT, E2E, SANDBOX, and PROD. This has caused the following problems:
- Complex build process makes it hard to understand, change and maintain
- Build process is manual and separate for components; there is a need for build automation
- Incremental builds are difficult since the product is composed of many components, different development environments, and many integration points which makes end-to-end testing and production deployment a very time-consuming process
- Frequent changes to legacy components make it difficult to track changes, and test and deploy the changes into production .
The company’s goal is to deliver the product frequently to the production server with high-quality and reliability. This can be achieved by implementing the DevOps processes like: continuous integration, test automation and continuous deployment and monitoring.
Implement the DevOps process using the following tools:
- Git – For version control for tracking changes in the code files
- Jenkins – For continuous integration and continuous deployment
- Docker – For container image -- a lightweight, executable package of software which includes everything needed to run the image (e.g. code, libraries, etc.)
- Puppet - Open-source software configuration management tool
- Nagios - Application monitoring tool
