Legacy approach vs DevOps philosophy
In today’s dynamic business environment, infrastructure and applications play a crucial role in supporting operations and driving decision-making processes.
However, legacy approaches often fall short in providing the agility and responsiveness required to keep pace with rapidly changing market demands.
Whether in terms of infrastructure or application development and operations the challenges are numerous:
- Lack of flexibility
- Slow time to market
- Lack of scalability
- Error-prone deployment processes
- Environments inconsistency
Why DevOps?
DevOps brings people (Developers and Operations) and tools together and breaking silos.
By implementing DevOps practices and containerization, companies can streamline development processes, scale applications effortlessly, and stay ahead of the competition.
No more waiting weeks for deployments or struggling with scalability issues.
- Shorter time to market
- Systems stability and reliability
- Scalability / Expandability / Elasticity
- Support to innovation
- Better availability and reliability for development
- Continuous improvement
- Cloud-native & scalable infrastructures
