Overview of this book

DevOps is a practical field that focuses on delivering business value as efficiently as possible. DevOps encompasses all the flows from code through testing environments to production environments. It stresses the cooperation between different roles, and how they can work together more closely, as the roots of the word imply—Development and Operations. After a quick refresher to DevOps and continuous delivery, we quickly move on to looking at how DevOps affects architecture. You'll create a sample enterprise Java application that you’ll continue to work with through the remaining chapters. Following this, we explore various code storage and build server options. You will then learn how to perform code testing with a few tools and deploy your test successfully. Next, you will learn how to monitor code for any anomalies and make sure it’s running properly. Finally, you will discover how to handle logs and keep track of the issues that affect processes

A practical example


Let's now take a look at the concrete example we will be working on for the remainder of the book. In our example, we work for an organization called Matangle. This organization is a software as a service (SaaS) provider that sells access to educational games for schoolchildren.

As with any such provider, we will, with all likelihood, have a database containing customer information. It is this database that we will start out with.

The organization's other systems will be fleshed out as we go along, but this initial system serves well for our purposes.
