New technologies in DevOps

DevOps today has expanded beyond what was originally envisioned in 2009, in part due to advances in technology that encouraged deployment into cloud-native environments. Advances today promise to add new capabilities never imagined.

The technologies we will examine for changing DevOps come from both refinements in deploying to cloud-native environments and applications on exciting new technology. We will take a look at these technology-based DevOps trends: AIOps and GitOps.

Let’s start out by looking to the future with AIOps.

AIOps

We discussed in the previous section the rise of the use of AI to create applications that can learn from the large amounts of data presented to AI models. One area that can benefit from improved insights based on large amounts of data may be product development that uses a DevOps approach and collects the data through full-stack telemetry. This is different from our previous discussions of DataOps or ModelOps...
