Why DevOps

DevOps is the combination of cultural philosophies, practices, and tools that improves an organization’s ability to deliver applications and services at high velocity.

Organizations that adopt DevOps disciplines fundamentally change their IT culture, breaking down silos and barriers between teams to allow them to evolve and improve software 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 their markets.
