Focus: Agile DevOps

Businesses in every industry are finding themselves under pressure to out-innovate their competitors, and push out new products and services to customers at an ever-increasing rate.

Where the IT department is concerned, being able to deliver on both these trends may require a fundamental overhaul of how it operates, through the breaking down of organisational silos into multiple, collaborative, cross-functional DevOps teams.

With each of these teams often responsible for overseeing the continued development of a particular part of an application, service or website, adopting a DevOps approach to software delivery can rapidly speed up the time it takes to rollout new features and functions.

In this guide, we take a closer look at how some household names have benefited from DevOps, while sharing some best practice around tackling both the technical and cultural aspects of adopting it successfully.
