In today's digital age, speed and quality are critical
elements for business success. Organizations are constantly looking to improve their software development and delivery processes to stay competitive in an ever-evolving marketplace. This is where AWS DevOps, a suite of cloud services designed to facilitate the implementation and operation of DevOps practices, comes into play. In this article, we will explore in depth the advantages, costs and updates of adopting a DevOps architecture using AWS services. WHY DEVOPS MATTERS?
The era of the Internet and
software have transformed industries, from entertainment to shopping to banking. Software not only supports a business but also becomes an integral component of the business. Companies interact with clients through software that is delivered as an online application or service on all devices. They use programs to increase the efficiency of operations by transforming value chains, such as communications, logistics, and operations. Similarly, physical goods companies transformed the way to design, build, and deliver products with automation. WHAT IS DEVOPS?
Devops is a methodology that promotes close
collaboration between software development teams (dev) and systems operations teams (ops). Its main objective is to shorten the software development lifecycle and improve the frequency of software deployments, while maintaining system stability and reliability.
In simpler terms, devops seeks to remove barriers
between development and operations teams, fostering a culture of collaboration, continuous integration, continuous delivery and continuous monitoring.
