Make Work Flow in the Devops Value Stream

SOLUTION BRIEF Make Work Flow in the DevOps Value Stream

DevOps is a methodology that combines software development (Dev) and software operations (Ops) teams and processes to accelerate and improve the quality of software delivery. As more IT organizations and development groups adopt the DevOps methodology, there is a growing need for solutions that integrate all of the technologies in the DevOps toolchain. The toolchain covers the full software lifecycle, from concept and planning through development, test, and release all the way through deployment and monitoring.

The cycle of continuous delivery and continuous feedback running through the DevOps toolchain is called the DevOps Value Stream. A new class of Value Stream Management (VSM) solutions is emerging to enable integration, management, and analysis of the DevOps toolchain. For IT teams, one of the biggest challenges in supporting the implementation of DevOps is aligning the disparate items in the toolchain with IT Service Management, IT Operations Management, and other well-established tools, processes, and standards.
