DevOps


Bring operations and development groups togetherfor concept-to-production delivery

The creative culture of software development is unique and sometimes clashes with the more restrained and deliberate culture of IT operations. Building, testing, and deploying new software requires companies to allocate infrastructure resources, which has historically occurred through IT service tickets. Users who have submitted a ticket to IT can testify that the process can take a long time as the ticket gets routed to the appropriate team for execution.

DevOps brings operations and development groups together in small teams with concept-to-production responsibility for specific applications. Developers, testers, platform architects, and system administrators work together to achieve the same objectives. DevOps requires a commitment to a consistent set of cloud-native tools and processes and an emphasis on automation. GoDgtl’s consultants teach companies how to create a proper DevOps environment and foster the culture needed to execute DevOps strategies.

DevOps and innovation with speed

By removing barriers to creativity, DevOps helps to accelerate digital transformation by focusing on innovation. When done correctly, DevOps enables companies to produce “more features, more functionality”.

DevOps teams allow companies to satisfy customers who always expect newer/faster/better digital capabilities. It also allows companies to stay ahead of disruptive competitors who are always ready to take advantage of opportunities. When software is at the core of a company’s product and services, the company’s innovation is limited by the speed of their DevOps teams. High-performing companies are three times more likely to be the first movers to launch new products and services. They can add features to existing products in weeks rather than months.

By building infrastructure processes, testing, and deployment on top of an automation framework, companies can release software in minutes instead of hours or days. With leading companies shifting toward a cycle of continuous optimization, increasing the number of software releases is a key indicator of success. DevOps brings results with higher quality, quicker fixes, and lower costs. It also contributes to a company’s ability to achieve faster times to market. GoDgtl’s DevOps expertise can help companies innovate with speed.
