DevOps is used to enhance Agile frameworks. While Agile focuses on iterative, flexible software development, DevOps provides a collaborative approach for streamlining and automating processes related to code testing, deployment, and maintenance.
Agile | |
Focus | The Agile software development methodology prioritizes an iterative approach to project delivery, team collaboration, and responsiveness to changes. |
Goal | Deliver small working components in short sprints with rapid feedback, ensuring software quality and project progress. |
Role | Create an iterative and flexible foundation that allows organizations to efficiently adapt software development to quickly evolving business needs. |
DevOps | |
Focus | DevOps is a culture aimed at creating a unified development and operations team. |
Goal | Improve team collaboration and automate processes to shorten the software lifecycle and ensure uninterrupted, high-quality deliveries. |
Role | Extend Agile principles such as collaboration, feedback loops, and flexibility to operations, creating an uninterrupted, fast-paced workflow. |
Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) | |
Focus | CI/CD is the practice of developing and testing new source code in a lifelike environment and deploying it automatically. |
Goal | Enable multiple, consistent code integrations and deployments, ensuring that code can rapidly be delivered to the production stage. |
Role | Applying DevOps principles in practice, CI/CD provides automation at scale. While reducing manual input, it decreases the chances of human error. |
How They Work Together
Agile offers a flexible and collaborative framework.
DevOps is used on top of Agile to create a cultural environment where teams focus on productivity and efficiency, sharing responsibility for the entire software lifecycle, not only their part of it.
CI/CD enables the project team to implement DevOps practices while increasing delivery speed and reliability. It allows project teams to quickly create and deliver value while focusing on changing end-user needs.
Thorough planning and implementation of Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery is at the core of our DevOps services and solutions. We connect all members of the project team through a unified and efficient workflow.
