What is it Trying to Achieve?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>DevOps is trying to reform things. But, what exactly is it trying to achieve? What is in it that companies that build the future are so reliant on it?<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-style: oblique;\">On the onset, there are some major goals that DevOps is trying to achieve. They include:<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 35px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Improve_the_Quality_of_Code\"><\/span>Improve the Quality of Code<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>DevOps aims to reduce the bugs and defects in each subsequent level of code development and also to increase the test scope coverage in a progressive manner. This helps in improving the overall quality of the code.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 35px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Implement_Cultural_Change\"><\/span>Implement Cultural Change<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>DevOps brings about an internal cultural change. Stakeholders who are used to working in silos are now forced to collaborate and come together to work in close association with operational teams. This helps devise quicker software updates that can be pushed live into the actual software.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 35px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More_Frequent_Software_Updates\"><\/span>More Frequent Software Updates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>DevOps follows an incremental software release update where continuous improvisations are made to the actual software base to make it even better than before. This continuous improvisation along with the collaboration of development and operational teams lead to a better software\/product than originally envisioned.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 35px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Transparent_IT_Processes\"><\/span>Transparent IT Processes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The collaboration between development and operational teams results in the better transparency of the IT processes that are put in place to release software quickly.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 35px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Digital_Transformation_Via_Devops\"><\/span>Digital Transformation Via Devops<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Digital Transformation, the new age mantra of CTOs is pillared on the capabilities of DevOps. DevOps facilitates Digital Transformation by tearing down the walls that earlier isolated development and operational teams from each other.<\/p>\n<p>By bridging the void between the two sides, DevOps sets the stage for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.contus.com\/?utm_source=digital-transformation&amp;utm_medium=InContentLink&amp;utm_campaign=Blog\">Digital Transformation development<\/a> where all stakeholders can work together from<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding: 10px; text-align: center; margin: 30px 0 20px; font-size: 27px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DevOps_and_Digital_Transformation_A_Match_Made_in_Heaven\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000;\">DevOps and Digital Transformation: A Match Made in Heaven<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-9782\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"http:\/\/blog.contus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/devops-quote.jpg\" alt=\"devops-quote\" width=\"1366\" height=\"448\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Why DevOps for Digital Transformation? Digital Transformation demands dynamism. A constant revamp of the routines to achieve the best. DevOps aligns with that objective of Digital Transformation, hence, qualifying itself as an ideal match.<\/p>\n<p style=\"background: #F3F2F2; padding: 25px 50px;\">* Digital = leading-edge technology devised using Mobile + Cloud + Internet + Analytics, etc..<\/p>\n<p>* Transformation = Reinventing business models, customer experience and interaction through continuous improvisation<\/p>\n<p>* DevOps + Digital Transformation = Quicker software delivery for superior customer experience.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 35px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hand_in_glove_for_developing_new_customer_experiences\"><\/span>Hand in glove for developing new customer experiences<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Digital Transformation aims to provide a superior customer experience through the use of technology in place of manual processes. DevOps facilitates quick replacement of manual processes with digital processes through continuous improved coding and tech development. Most importantly, DevOps helps develop clean code, which is a prerequisite for digital transformation.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 35px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Speedy_Software_Delivery_for_Dynamic_Customer_Preferences\"><\/span>Speedy Software Delivery for Dynamic Customer Preferences<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Secondly, DevOps also sets the ground for speedy delivery of software that matches the customer\u2019s ever-changing demands. The dynamism in DevOps matches the dynamically changing customer preferences that digital transformation satisfies.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 35px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Mutually_Shared_Goal\"><\/span>A Mutually Shared Goal<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Digital transformation tweaks business models and technology according to customer preferences. DevOps changes methodologies based on feedback received from the operational teams who implement digital transformation. Both the sides share a mutually shared goal, thus making DevOps nothing but a catalyst for digital transformation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-style: oblique;\">DevOps has the transformation power to increase the speed at which software is developed and delivered across an organization. The transparency and focus on immediate milestones makes it a perfect fit for digital transformation too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is DevOps?
