Title
DevOps in practice - an exploratory case study.
Abstract
DevOps is a cultural movement and technical solution that plays a fundamental role for software-intensive organizations whose business greatly depends on how efficient development and operation are. DevOps is relatively recent, and thus little is known about best practices and the real value and barriers associated with DevOps in industry. To conduct an analysis on practicing DevOps in various software development companies in order to provide patterns of DevOps practices and identify their benefits and barriers. An exploratory case study based on the interviews to relevant stakeholders of 11 (multinational) software-intensive companies. The study is currently ongoing. This study aims to help practitioners and researchers to better understand some DevOps improvement practices as well as real DevOps projects and the contexts where the practices worked, and benefits and barriers appeared. This, hopefully, will contribute to strengthening the evidence regarding DevOps and supporting practitioners in making better informed decisions about the ROI of introducing DevOps.
