The need for DevOps - moving from Agile to DevOps

The era of Agile

In the technical world, the development team works on creating the product by sorting out the requirements, designing the architecture, coding the programs, testing for errors, and finally, deploying the software. This kind of approach is known as the “Ad waterfall model”.

 The main problem of this approach was when the customer wanted some changes to be made in the software. The developers were forced to rework on these changes and the process became time-consuming which resulted in increased costs for the companies. Because of this, companies realized that the waterfall model was slow for developers and thus began the search for better techniques.  So, to fix this Agile development came into existence.

 Agile development basically focused on the importance of delivering the entire software in smaller chunks of features periodically. This allowed the team of developers to break down the issues and debug the codes with multiple iterations. But this method optimized the development phase but lacked in agility in the operational phase.

Moving towards DevOps from Agile

To overcome this issue, DevOps arrived on the scene, and it’s basically a practice of bringing agility and optimization to both development and operations. These two phrases go hand in hand and ensure that software is running smoothly with constant collaboration between development and operations.
As per the DevOps culture, a single group of tech professionals will have the end-to-end responsibility of the software development from gathering the requirements for developing, testing, deployment, and finally to monitor and gather feedback from the end customers and implement changes according to the requirements.

Final Words

Agile came as an improvement on the waterfall model, but it still had limitations as it stressed only on continuous integration and monitoring. But DevOps overcame the limitations of agile with the introduction of continuous deployment in the software life cycle.
DevOps is the next big step in the tech world that promotes the concept of continuous deployment along with integration, and monitoring making DevOps approach unique. The ideology of DevOps has proved to be efficient in the production side as the changes and improvements are reflected even before the actual rollout.

Artificial Intelligence, its types and future

We all have heard of AI - Artificial intelligence at some point in time in our lives… But what pops up in our heads when we hear this word — Robots taking over the planet and making humans their slaves? In reality, AI is nothing like that. A I is sim ply the intelligence demonstrated by machines. It came into existence by studying and analyzing the brain, how we think, learn, decides, and work. So, we can say that AI is the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines. Types of artificial intelligence: According to Arend Hintze, assistant professor of integrative biology and computer science at Michigan State University, AI can be categorized: • Reactive machines: They have no memory, so they can’t use experiences to inform future ones. They are designed for specific purposes and thus can’t be easily used in other situations, e.g., Deep Blue and Google's AlphaGO. • Limited memory: These AI systems can use experiences to inform future decisions, e.g., a...

Why should you consider Blockchain?

Security is definitely a concern for everyone when it comes to transactions.. So where does blockchain stand when it comes to security?? Find out... How secure is Blockchain? To know how secure blockchain is, recall the process of money transfer via a bank. (To know more about blockchain read this blog ).. You go to a bank, tell them you want to make a money transfer, give them your account details and the receivers details, the bank saves all these details and makes the transfer. Sounds easy, right? But this process can tamper – can be altered and that too very easily. Here’s where Blockchain comes into play . It’s decentralized, secure, and transparent (i.e., the data is available publicly) way of money transfer. You might now be thinking that since the transaction data is available publicly it might have some safety issues. Like a hacker can hack this data and alter it. What will happen then? Let’s try to visualize what will happen if someone attempts to alter t...

What is Blockchain technology? How does it work?

Before discussing blockchain, you should be familiar with the concept of cryptocurrencies... In the past few years, we all heard about cryptocurrencies, especially after we witnessed the rise of Bitcoin. So, what is a cryptocurrency? Cryptocurrency a digital currency that was specifically designed to work as a secure medium of exchange, since it uses strong encryption techniques , thus ensuring secure financial transactions . Bitcoin, one such cryptocurrency, is regulated by a network of computers through encryption techniques. Although its production is independent of any bank or state, it’s the technology it uses that has increased trust in it. What about the Bitcoin transactions? How are we going to validate them? Enter Blockchain!! What is Blockchain? Blockchain first came into existence to keep a track of the bitcoin transactions. It is a highly restricted database whose entries are the bitcoin transactions. The blockchain operates as a digital ledger of transa...
