Practical DevOps

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 word about source code management system migrations


I have worked with many source code management systems and experienced many transitions from one type of system to another.

Sometimes, much time is spent on keeping all the history intact while performing a migration. For some systems, this effort is well spent, such as for venerable free or open source projects.

For many organizations, keeping the history is not worth the significant expenditure in time and effort. If an older version is needed at some point, the old source code management system can be kept online and referenced. This includes migrations from Visual SourceSafe and ClearCase.

Some migrations are trivial though, such as moving from Subversion to Git. In these cases, historic accuracy need not be sacrificed.
