3. Rapid deployment
A greater speed in the release of new features and in the correction of bugs gives a significant benefit on competitors. Crucial components are continuous delivery and continuous integration: practices which automate software release procedures, from build to deployment.
4. Availability
Constant check of updates and changes to infrastructure assure a high availability and productivity. With continuous delivery and continuous integration you can control that any change is safe. Through monitoring and log registration you can also check real time performance.
5. Scalability
DevOps method allows you to manage infrastructures and development processes at all scales, ensuring efficiency and control of risks.
6. Collaboration
One of the peculiar characteristic of DevOps approach is the increase of collaboration between developers and system administrators. The aim is to improve the speed of processes by reducing inefficiency times and increase the products quality thanks to the integration of workflows.
7. Security
Fast does not mean unsafe. Thanks to security measures like automated compliance policies, granular controls and configuring management techniques, you are able to monitor compliance and guarantee a high-level of security.
