What is DevOps? Our DevOps definition
Even though the DevOps movement has been discussed for nearly a decade, DevOps still lacks a widely accepted definition. By consolidating the most cited definitions of DevOps in the academic literature, we crafted our definition:
“DevOps is a collaborative and multidisciplinary effort within an organization to automate continuous delivery of new software versions, while guaranteeing their correctness and reliability.”
This definition was accepted by the ACM Computing Surveys journal, a very reputable academic journal in our field, within our Survey of DevOps Concepts and Challenges.
