Abstract

In the dynamic landscape of software development, where agility and speed reign supreme, a cultural shift has emerged: DevOps. This article delves into the essence of DevOps culture, exploring its origins, key principles, and transformative impact on bridging the longstanding gap between development (Dev) and operations (Ops) teams. Through a critical lens, we examine the traditional siloed approach, highlighting its inefficiencies and limitations. We then showcase how DevOps culture dismantles these barriers, fostering collaboration, automation, and continuous feedback loops, ultimately leading to faster software delivery, higher quality, and improved customer satisfaction. Supported by relevant academic research and industry examples, this article provides a comprehensive framework for understanding and implementing DevOps culture within organizations, emphasizing its potential to revolutionize the software development lifecycle.
