DevOps Methodology
DevOps is a process that integrates development (Dev) and operations (Ops) to enhance the efficiency, speed, and security of software development and delivery.
What is DevOps?
-
Dev Ops is a culture, mindset, and methodology that aims to deliver software and services faster, more reliably, and with higher quality.
-
Dev Ops is not a set of principles and practices that can be adapted to different contexts and goals.
​
How to DevOps?
-
Dev Ops is based on four key pillars (CAMS):
-
Culture
-
Automation
-
Measurement
-
Sharing .
-
-
Dev Ops is supported by a number of practices, such as:
-
continuous integration
-
continuous delivery
-
infrastructure as code
-
configuration management
-
monitoring
-
logging
-
testing
-
security

DevOps and Orchestration:​
DevOps orchestration is the compulsory provisioning approach AximCloud uses for Cloud infrastructure delivery and is a bedrock principle present in nearly all of our customers' implementations. DevOps is woven culturally into AximCloud's approach and we setup our customers to enjoy the consistency and rapid delivery associated with DevOps principles to our customers via technologies from AWS, Docker, etc. AximCloud will configure orchestration tools automate your organization's Cloud infrastructure.
Some of the most common DevOps mechanisms include:
​
-
Compute, storage or database instance/volume provisioning
-
Network Infrastructure provisioning and configuration (read: DRE turn-up)
-
Configuration Management
-
Application Deployment
-
Validation
-
Continuous Integration
​
Your solution's infrastructure orchestration will rapidly and reliably implement the best practices we’ve developed during our decade long partnership with AWS. AximCloud will assist your organization in realizing the Cloud automation benefits which will release IT and operations teams from repetitive, time-demanding tasks - allowing them to instead focus on business-critical objectives and innovation. Additionally, higher risk workflows - such as code deployments - are mitigation via the consistency of automation.
