- Shortened lead time between fixes
- Improved collaboration and communication
Key Components of DEVOPS
DEVOPS is built on several key components that facilitate integration and collaboration:
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Continuous Integration | Frequent integration of code into a shared repository. |
| Continuous Delivery | Automated delivery of applications to selected infrastructure environments. |
| Monitoring | Tracking performance and user interactions to improve future deployments. |
