How does DevOps work?
Like Agile, DevOps focuses on delivering smaller units of work at greater speed, providing a shared process and toolset to plan, manage, and monitor software delivery. It replaces large, infrequent releases with a continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline of customer value extending to embedded product software. The embedded DevOps model delivers software updates at discrete intervals, while other software enables more frequent over-the-air (OTA) updates.
DevOps best practices
While DevOps processes vary, most include the following:
Collaboration
DevOps breaks down silos that separate development, operations, and test teams so they may be merged, or simply operate under a set of shared goals.
Holistic Release Planning
Continuous Integration
Continuous Delivery
Over-the-Air (OTA) Updates
Monitoring and Analytics
