This is the basics who intends to know about DevOps in 5 minutes. DevOps represents a change in IT culture, focusing on rapid IT service delivery through the adoption of agile, lean practices in the context of a system-oriented approach. DevOps emphasizes people (and culture), and seeks to improve collaboration between operations and development teams ....gartner.com This is a little contribution to my favorite topic- DevOps. Kindly share your valuable feedback if liked.

1. Know your DevOps:

2. Development + Operations+ Quality
• One can state DevOps as a process model which has insightfully shifted
the corporate culture introducing few frame works in software life cycle
stages.
• There is a no defined definition for this DevOps.
• Companies moving with Agile, continual service improvements, Lean etc.
has given way to new ideas, processes and concepts.
• Years of knowledge and simplifications drove us to a beautiful and
meaningful combination of: Technology + Quality assurance + software
engineering

4. Life cycle stages:
• This life cycle components are skeletal structure for all companies.
• As per IT infrastructure, vision and policies, few more stages
are added, modified or renamed.

6. DevOps: Bad practices
Ref: http://web.devopstopologies.com
1. Dev and Ops Silos: ‘Throw it over the wall’ split
between Dev and Ops.
2. DevOps Team Silo: The DevOps Team Silo (Anti-Type
B) typically results from a manager or exec deciding
that they “need a bit of this DevOps thing” and
starting a ‘DevOps team’ (probably full of people
known as ‘a DevOp‘).
3. Dev Don't Need Ops: Assuming that Ops is now a
thing of the past, the developers might underestimate
the complexity and importance of operational skills
and activities, and believe that they can do without
them.

7. Performance Indicators or success factors
• DevOps is based on performance metrics or called as success measure factors:
MTBF (mean time between failures): It is the average time that an IT service or other configuration item can perform its agreed
function without interruption. This is measured from when the configuration item starts working, until it next fails.
MTTR (mean time to repair): The average time taken to repair an IT service or other configuration item after a failure. MTTR is
measured from when the configuration item fails until it is repaired.
MTRS (mean time to restore service): The average time taken to restore an IT service or other configuration item after a failure.
Fault tolerance: The ability of an IT service or other configuration item to continue to operate correctly after failure of a component
part.
CI (configuration item): Any component or other service asset that needs to be managed in order to deliver an IT service.
Service availability uptime.
