Why you should apply change management in DevOps failures

Source – techtarget.com In a digital world, every company depends on software to continuously improve its products and business. This need for continuous speed has led to the explosion of DevOps initiatives. Well-executed change management in DevOps shortens software release cycles while improving quality. These conditions, in turn, make continuous integration, regular deployment and continuous delivery possible. For many organizations, however, DevOps remains a distant mirage rather than a reality. So why do some DevOps initiatives fail? DevOps success depends on tools, processes and people.

Linking Collaboration to the DevOps Chain

Source – itbusinessedge.com Much of the focus surrounding DevOps is on the tools, technologies and platforms that strive to produce better products in a shorter timeframe. But at its heart, DevOps is about getting people to work together more effectively and efficiently. This is easier said than done, however, especially considering that DevOps replaces the linear “waterfall” style of development with a more chaotic workflow that stresses continuous change over the creation of a “finished” product. This is why some leading DevOps

How to align test automation with agile and devops

Source – infoworld.com One key devops best practice is instrumenting a continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline that automates the process of building software, packaging applications, deploying them to target environments, and instrumenting service calls to enable the application. This automation requires scripting individual procedures and orchestrating the steps from code check-in to running application. Once matured, devops teams use the automation to drive process change and strive to do smaller, more frequent deployments that deliver new functionality to users and improve quality. But there’s a significant assumption
