How Poor Development/Operations Interactions Harm Performance

Traditional CTRM process development and IT operations teams work together only tangentially. This creates roadblocks that stall productivity and detours on the path to testing, improvement, and implementation. A purposeful DevOps optimization streamlines the software concept-to-market trajectory by removing these bottlenecks where the operations, development, and quality assurance phases meet.

4 Common Problems Resulting from Suboptimal DevOps

Conflicting Objectives

Development and Operations have different mandates and reward structures.

Siloed Expertise & Resources

Teams have no incentive to share best practices or create synergies.

Iterative
Process

Go-to-market strategies are sequential, rather than continuous.

Slow
Adaption

Testing and remediation take too long and insights take too long to integrate.

Integrating DevOps Across CTRM

Value Creed helps organizations manage the cultural shift that perpetually feeds on itself to deliver continuous improvement and proactive identification and creation of desirable product features.

Continuous Integration

The immediate integration of code changes from multiple sources into a single software project for building, testing, and validation.

Continuous
Delivery

The mission is to operationalize new features, iterations, configurations, debugging, and changes swiftly, safely, and reliably.

Infrastructure as Code

Standardized management of smart machines, and downstream apps in accessible files for automatic use by infrastructure software.

Monitoring and Logging

Generate visibility into the DevOps pipeline by collecting metrics and triggering notifications when standards are not met.
