How DevOps is Driving Digital Transformation Initiatives

Companies are marching towards digital transformation with lightning pace, the reason being there’s no single business where customers don’t surf, swipe or click their way to interact with businesses in the world of application economy.

There’s no second thought involved in the fact that business success largely depends on accelerating application performance without compromising on quality and performance. Thus, business success of Digital Transformation Initiatives is directly proportional to their maturity in digital transformation journey.

This article outlines how DevOps can help companies in driving their digital transformation initiatives.

DevOps and Digital Transformation Initiatives

Digital transformation is about building applications across platforms and aligned with business needs to innovate fast and receive faster feedback from both business and end users and releasing applications at a fast pace. This is where DevOps comes in, to help companies accentuate their digital transformation activities by building continuous delivery, deployment, monitoring, and testing practices.

DevOps helps organizations to approach digital transformation from a business perspective to increase bottom line, improve customer experience and lower operation costs. This helps in getting development and operations team at the same platform to have an end to end visibility about the developments, deployments, production fixes, bugs, handling environments, managing releases, unlike the traditional application development practices. This enables planned releases and faster communication to act on production defects, code issues and application performance issues caused unanticipated application downtimes and rollbacks.

DevOps requires automation of all activities that are redundant, and automation can take care of them. Some of them are release management such as code analysis, continuous build, integration, and testing. This saves a lot of time for both development and IT teams in firefighting and brings a significant process change in tackling errors, rolling out features, enable faster feedback cycles with continuous monitoring and testing practices. This is because of less human intervention and more of automation being introduced with the DevOps tools and technologies.

DevOps enables faster feedback cycles imperative to expedite digital transformation initiatives by acting fast on the feedbacks received from business users and customers. Continuous improvement with DevOps is required to catapult the firm’s digital transformation journey and receiving a precise response within the right time frame is paramount.
