DevOps Value

First of all, “Happy New year” to all. This is my first post this year & I am again back with DevOps - my fav topic. I totally believe that DevOps is the future of application lifecycle automation . I was discussing with my friends in IT firms & persuading them to go for DevOps. The conversation went well & I succeed to convince them on Value proposition of DevOps.

DevOps  has 4 main value propositions :

 DevOps can drive agility, quality, innovation whilst reducing outages in production

Agility and outage-reduction are the two main drivers that clients target when implementing DevOps capabilities. However, increased quality and innovation cycles are another set of key benefits clients might want to consider when applying DevOps. To a large extent, most of these drivers can directly be related and translated into cost savings. Reducing outages will have an impact on cost avoidance; increased quality will have an impact on end-user satisfaction and therefore, clients may be able to increase their profits.

 Increased Agility  : Speed to market or better-maximized agility through a constant and fully integrated deployment capability is one key aspect here. Moving from a release cycle from every quarter to deploying changes on a minute-by-minute basis is a real aspiration. For many clients this is a massive leap, for some this is a reality.

 Increased Quality: I was going thru  Puppet Labs’ survey that  suggests that high-performing organizations are deploying code 30 times more frequently, with 50% fewer failures than their lower-performing counterparts. Increased quality is one of the key benefits of DevOps. It will, however, increase quality only when the organization reaches a certain level of maturity.

Improve Innovation  : Experiencing fewer outages and deploying code with increased quality will lead to more time spent thinking about further improvements or new ways of working. It will enable the organization to drive more value, rather than having to dedicate time fixing issues caused by changes deployed.

Reduced Outages: As outlined earlier , outage-reduction is a big area of value. By applying a DevOps approach, companies will be able to avoid loss of sales and other outage related implications by improving ways of working, automation, and continuous deployment

Hope you agree with it & start implementing DevOps in your Organization and avail these benefits as soon as possible.

Will Be back …..
