As defined by theDevOps Institute, DevOps is a culture and mindset shift which prescribes the union of people, processes, and products to enable continuous delivery of value to end-users. The contraction of "Dev" and "Ops" refers to replacing siloed Development and Operations to create multidisciplinary teams that now work together with shared and efficient practices and tools.
In a DevOps world, product owners, development engineers, QA, testers, IT operations professionals and the InfoSec teams break down siloes by working together to ensure the organization succeeds. Working towards a common business-aligned goal enables the planned work to flow quickly from production to completion while achieving superior stability, reliability, availability, and security.
