Devops

DevOps began years ago as a new hype, as all new developments do. Since then, thanks in part to the rise of the cloud and cloud-native, it has become the definition of how IT is managed. Many companies are looking at their business processes and how they can be optimized in the cloud era. This usually means developing new applications and tools. Development and operations teams must work closely together in this process to achieve the best possible outcome for the business. On this page you can read all about recent developments in this area. There is a lot of focus on cloud-native development, especially containers and Kubernetes, but also on issues such as low-code and no-code development. It is clear; DevOps is here to stay.
