Overview of this book

Digital transformation is the new paradigm in enterprises, but the big question remains: is the enterprise ready for transformation using native technology embedded in Agile/DevOps? With this book, you'll see how to design, implement, and integrate DevOps in the enterprise architecture while keeping the Ops team on board and remaining resilient. The focus of the book is not to introduce the hundreds of different tools that are available for implementing DevOps, but instead to show you how to create a successful DevOps architecture. This book provides an architectural overview of DevOps, AIOps, and DevSecOps – the three domains that drive and accelerate digital transformation. Complete with step-by-step explanations of essential concepts, practical examples, and self-assessment questions, this DevOps book will help you to successfully integrate DevOps into enterprise architecture. You'll learn what AIOps is and what value it can bring to an enterprise. Lastly, you will learn how to integrate security principles such as zero-trust and industry security frameworks into DevOps with DevSecOps. By the end of this DevOps book, you'll be able to develop robust DevOps architectures, know which toolsets you can use for your DevOps implementation, and have a deeper understanding of next-level DevOps by implementing Site Reliability Engineering (SRE).

Chapter 1: Defining the Reference Architecture for Enterprise DevOps

This chapter is an introduction to DevOps architecture for the enterprise. First, we'll look at the business of an enterprise. The business sets its goals and with that, defines the criteria for IT delivery, which supports these business goals. Therefore, the DevOps architecture must be aligned with the enterprise architecture. In this chapter, we will learn how to set up the reference architecture and design the different DevOps components while working with the VOICE model. Next, we'll learn how to deal with service levels and key performance indicators in DevOps models.

By the end of this chapter, you will have a clear view of how to start using the architecture and defining a DevOps strategy. An important lesson you'll learn in this chapter is that setting up DevOps in an enterprise becomes more complicated when organizations have outsourced large parts of their IT delivery. During this chapter, you will learn how to engage DevOps in enterprises with sourcing models.

We're going to cover the following main topics:

  • Introducing DevOps in IT delivery
  • Creating a reference architecture
  • Introducing DevOps components
  • Understanding SLAs and KPIs in DevOps
  • Working with the VOICE model
