Overview of this book

DevOps is the most widely used software engineering culture and practice that aim sat software development and operation. Continuous integration is a cornerstone technique of DevOps that merges software code updates from developers into a shared central mainline. This book takes a practical approach and covers the tools and strategies of DevOps. It starts with familiarizing you with DevOps framework and then shows how toper form continuous delivery, integration, and deployment with DevOps. You will explore DevOps process maturity frameworks and progression models with checklist templates for each phase of DevOps. You will also be familiar with agile terminology, methodology, and the benefits accrued by an organization by adopting it. You will also get acquainted with popular tools such as Git, Jenkins ,Maven, Gerrit, Nexus, Selenium, and so on.You will learn configuration, automation, and the implementation of infrastructure automation (Infrastructure as Code) with tools such as Chef and Ansible.

DevOps Frameworks


Under DevOps frameworks we will study the life cycle models, maturity states, progression and best practices frameworks, as well as agile methodology.

Accomplishing DevOps maturity is a gradual progression to being well structured and planned, as stated in the following stages:

DevOps Maturity Life Cycle

DevOps project phases are on lines of the software development life cycle as described here. We will dwell on each phase in detail:

  • Discovery and requirements phase: The DevOps discovery phase is a highly interactive project phase for gathering inputs and feedback on the current state of process, frameworks and tools from key stakeholders. Templates and checklists are used to capture the inputs. The timeline for the phase depends on the availability of key stakeholders, the existence of requisite documents, and the complexity of the processes to explore. Discovery phase deliverables are as follows:

    • Templates detailing the current state of process, tools, frameworks

    • Signoff from...
