MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT DEVOPS

Concept / Philosophy More than “just” tools Driving business outcomes Key for many companies

DevOps IS A single methodology Complete by using one tool Just a job title Only for developers

ODCA DEFINES DEVOPS

DevOps is a way of collaborating and industrializing using highly automated approaches to deploy solutions that evolve as fast as a business needs it.

By adopting DevOps, an organization can dramatically improve the value delivered by its business.

The team-centric DevOps ethos tears down traditional silos to tightly integrate business, development, and operations. This drives agility and service delivery excellence across the entire lifecycle.

FOUR VALUE PROPOSITIONS

DevOps Benefits

19

INCREASED AGILITY

DevOps Benefits

Increased agility in development and deployment reduces time to market.

The committed enterprise IT organization can move from a quarterly release cycle to an essentially continuous deployment - this is achievable using DevOps.

20

INCREASED QUALITY

DevOps Benefits

• Increased quality is a key benefit of DevOps.

• Per a survey by Puppet Labs [1], high-performing organizations deploy code thirty times more frequently with 50 percent fewer failures than their lower-performing counterparts.

• Such improvements are possible once the organization reaches a certain level of maturity, since DevOps has to be managed to continuously to grow.

21

INCREASED INNOVATION

DevOps Benefits

• Experiencing fewer outages and deploying code with increased quality lead to more time spent thinking about further improvements or new ways of working.

• They enable the organization to drive more value, rather than dedicate time to fixing issues caused by changes deployed.

22

REDUCED OUTAGES

DevOps Benefits

• IT Process Institute’s Visible Ops Handbook [2] reported that “80% of unplanned outages are due to ill-planned changes made by administrators (‘operations staff’) or developers.”

• Likewise, the Enterprise Management Association [3] reported that 60 percent of availability and performance errors are the result of misconfigurations.

• A Gartner study [4] projected that “through 2015, 80% of outages impacting mission-critical services will be caused by people and process issues, and more than 50% of those outages will be caused by change/configuration or release integration and hand-off issues.”

Summary

24

DEVOPS MAGNIFIES BUSINESS VALUE

• If done correctly, DevOps can drive real business value.

• As there is no universally accepted definition of (or approach to) DevOps, it is important that all DevOps implementations are carefully planned.

• They should leverage best practices from previous adoptions of the approach with clear goals, well-defined strategy, and active management of the plan.
