SD Times: Report: As DevOps adoption nears 100%, these factors determine maturity

By In The News

Most developers at this point in time have adopted DevOps in some form or another, whether they are a full-blown DevOps engineer or a developer utilizing parts of the DevOps practice.

According to a new report from the Continuous Delivery Foundation (CDF), 83% of developers were “involved in DevOps-related activities” in the first quarter of 2024. The report was based on data over the past three and a half years from SlashData. Because of the wide time period being examined, the organization was able to compare this to a 77% involvement in DevOps in early 2022, a 6% increase.

DevOps.com: CDF Survey Surfaces DevOps Progress and Challenges

By In The News

A global survey of more than 10,000 developers conducted by the Continuous Delivery Foundation (CDF) finds 83% of developers are involved in DevOps-related activities, with a third (33%) actively using continuous integrations tools, monitoring tools to track infrastructure performance and testing applications for security vulnerabilities.

Revealed today at the cdcon event, another 29% of respondents said they were actively involved in continuous delivery/deployment. The most widely used DevOps tools and platforms are source control management (29%) and issue tracking (28%), but only (21%) said they build continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines.

According to Mark Waite, community manager for CloudBees, the survey results said that while DevOps practices are widespread there is a clear need for organizations to achieve higher levels of maturity given the uneven adoption of best practices. For example, only a quarter (25%) of respondents said they programmatically manage infrastructure.

Forbes: Best Of Suite Or Best Of Breed? The Battle Of Convenience Vs. Effectiveness

By In The News

On the surface, the best-of-suite solution seems to make more sense; it means fewer tools to manage and, hopefully, savings due to working with a single vendor.

However, this practice shows otherwise—over and over again.

Let’s look at a real-world example. Have you driven a family mini-van? To me, it is a good symbolization of the best-in-suite product. It tries to be everything: It has a decent engine, and you can even add a towing hitch. However, it’s not a car that will help you win a race or haul your boat easily. Convenience makes families choose a mini-van, but they quickly realize it comes with significant shortcomings.

[…] The results published by the CD Foundation (part of the Linux Foundation) in its State of Continuous Delivery Report published in May confirms my thesis.
