DevOps is a general collection of flexible software creation and delivery practices that looks to close the gap between software development and IT operations, which are two critical but often misaligned efforts. It's not a specific technology, but a tactical approach. By working together, development and operations teams can eliminate roadblocks and focus on improving the creation, deployment, and continuous monitoring of software.

DevOps

Eliminate silos, improve cross-team collaboration, and release better software faster.

Streamline & scale DevOps with observability and AIOps

DevOps is a tactical approach to creating and delivering software designed to close the gap between development and IT operations. Leveraging observability, AI, and automation on a single platform helps Dev and Ops teams collaborate more efficiently, accelerate CI/CD pipelines, and improve code quality.

Drive benefits across the enterprise

Grow the business

Innovate faster and make customers happier

Spend less time performing manual tasks and triaging issues, and more time innovating. An efficient and scalable DevOps approach helps teams exceed customer expectations and gain a competitive edge.

Streamline it

Increase speed, quality, and throughput

Build a highly integrated DevOps toolchain with observability, automation, and AI at the core to help accelerate the speed of delivery, improve code quality, and increase DevOps throughput.

Change the culture

Build a more productive and collaborative culture

Eliminating friction and silos between Dev and Ops, and rallying everyone around a single source of truth enhances communication and builds a culture of trust, collaboration, and success.

Integrate with the technologies you already use

Simplicity and seamlessness starts with leveraging APIs and Dynatrace’s Software Intelligence Platform. Dynatrace plays well with:

DevOps best practices to know

Continuous integration

A software development practice where developers regularly merge their code changes into a central repository, after which automated builds and tests are run.
Continuous delivery

Code changes are automatically built, tested, and prepared for a release to production. Done properly, developers will always have a deployment-ready built artifact.
Continuous observability

Continuous observability of your system across all stages of DevOps allows you to manage the performance and availability of software applications. This leads to quick response times, improved computing processes and satisfied customers.

Continuous automation

In addition to CI/CD, bringing automated testing, monitoring and remediation to the DevOps lifecycle shortens innovation cycles, speeds up application delivery and reduces MTTR.
AI-driven DevOps

AI integrated into DevOps allows for quicker identification and resolution of issues through root cause analysis, improved collaboration between teams, and the ability to make risk-free release decisions.
Shift-left

Process of pushing testing (code quality, performance & security) toward the early stages of the SDLC. By testing early and testing often, you can find and remediated bugs earlier and improve the quality of software.

Shift-right / Progressive delivery

Process of monitoring, observing, and testing (resiliency, reliability and security) of new releases “in production” to ensure correct behavior, performance, and availability.
DevSecOps

DevSecOps expands the impact of DevOps by adding security practices to software development and delivery process. It resolves the tension between DevOps teams that want to release software quickly, and security teams that prioritize security over all else.
