Security in DevOps and Automation
Rithik Chatterjee · Apress eBooks · 2020
An amalgamation of the words “Development” and “Operations,” the term “DevOps” was coined by Patrick Debois in 2009. It can be defined as a harmonized blend of practices, technologies, culture, and mindset to enable automation and integration of the activities among application development and IT operations teams so as to amplify the building, testing, and deployment processes more efficiently. Once used as a generic term, now DevOps has evolved into an umbrella domain consisting of operations, tools, and culture that shrinks the application development life cycle, through quicker feedback loops that provide functionality, features, and upgrades on a consistent basis.
