DevOps Automation: Automating Your Way Through the SDLC

The business benefits that DevOps has to offer are all out for the world to see.

With the aid of DevOps automation, they deployed their application features rapidly, improved customer experience, automated repeated tasks, and enhanced collaboration.

DevOps: A synonym for automation

While DevOps enables team collaboration between developers and operations teams, it is also about following the best practices to speed up the continuous deployment process.

Traditional development models usually siloed the development and operations teams, therefore, segregating the task that would take more time to process. To make things worse, each development and testing process had to be run, logged, and monitored manually, leading to difficult management and lag in performance.

DevOps practices enforced the utilization of automation. Technology stacks evolved to allow teams to manage the apps efficiently, and provide quality assurance. Furthermore, it improved the quality, customization, and management of on-site infrastructure.

Automation facilitates the feedback loops and permits iterative updates. With more time, scaling becomes easier, implementing new features takes minimal effort, processes get standardized, and changes are automatically addressed instantly through constant feedback.
