Agile DevOps practices are changing the ways apps are being developed and delivered. This collaboration of software developers and IT operations staff allows for faster development cycles, more frequent updates, and faster delivery.
Companies not using DevOps might do software updates annually. That’s because the pathway to deployment could take a long time. Developers focused on code. When the code was completed, the operations team would go to work to make sure everything runs smoothly. Then a security team might analyze it. When an issue arose, it was back to the developers to start the cycle over again.
