DevOps is the combination of cultural philosophies, practices, and tools
that increases an organization’s ability to deliver applications and
services at high velocity: evolving and improving products at a faster
pace than organizations using traditional software development and
infrastructure management processes. This speed enables organizations to
better serve their customers and compete more effectively in the
market.
Devops Engineer use a technology stack and tooling which help them operate and
evolve applications quickly and reliably. These tools also help
engineers independently accomplish tasks that normally would have required help
from other teams, and this further increases a team’s velocity.
