What is DevOps

• DevOps (a portmanteau of "development" and "operations") is a software development method that stresses

communication, collaboration (information sharing and web service usage), integration, automation and measurement cooperation between software developers and other information-

technology (IT) professionals. DevOps acknowledges the interdependence of software development and IT operations.
