The software development industry has been evolving and has produced new development standards and models for providing services. Agile methodologies have reached their plateau with DevOps, which has increased software quality and hastened its delivery. However, a gap in terms of its formalization and unresolved issues concerning its adoption have become relevant. This study seeks, by using a Systematic Mapping, to elucidate existing gaps in this area such as methods for implementing DevOps, the use of maturity models and defining the roles of those who participate in this process. This Systematic Method was applied to five databases (ACM Digital Library, IEEE Xplore, Science Direct, Springer Link and Scopus), during which automatic searches are conducted with a view to answering the research questions. 32 studies returned answers to these. 11 maturity models were found; however, only two of them had been validated by companies, one of which only applied to IBM software.
