DevOps and CI/CD optimization
01
The DevOps culture, more particularly the CI/CD approach, aims to secure and boost the integration of new developments.
Coordinated actions are put in place to allow iterative deliveries of new versions of the solution. From the Developers’ (Dev) side, the code is developed in sequence without altering the previously developed and tested functions.
Unit and non-regression tests are also done continuously and automatically, under the supervision and approval of operational teams (Ops IT). This is called Continuous Integration and Deployment.
Setting up a DevOps environment can initially require additional workload, but undeniably brings value to CIOs: deploy faster, respond effectively, automate what works, secure intelligently and establish a new collaborative dynamic.
The DevOps culture is introducing a new way of approaching application development and production lifecycle for CIOs.
