Part 6/13:
The presentation explained the eight core stages of DevOps: plan, develop, build, test, release, deploy, operate, and monitor. This cyclical process fosters continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD), reducing deployment times and improving collaboration across teams.
Automation and Speed
DevOps automates repetitive tasks such as code deployment, testing, and infrastructure provisioning. For example, automation enables faster recovery from failures—reverting to previous builds 2600 times faster—by deploying incremental updates rather than rebuilding entire systems. This agility allows teams to iterate rapidly and innovate confidently.
