KEY FEATURES OF DEVOPS
Several key features distinguish DevOps from other methodologies that are facilitating advanced software development across the world:
Automation: DevOps highlights the value of automation across its lifecycle. Automation tools and practices streamline manual, repetitive tasks (e.g., code integration, testing, deployment and infrastructure provisioning). By automating these processes, teams can speed up delivery, minimize errors and improve efficiency.
Collaboration: DevOps promotes collaboration by encouraging cross-functional teams to work together towards common goals, share knowledge and leverage each other’s expertise. Moreover, collaborative workflows foster transparency, communication and shared ownership, resulting in quicker problem resolution and improved outcomes.
