Dive into The State of CI/CD Trends report by DZone:

The marriage of Development and Operations has proven a game-changer for high-performing organizations. As a leading tactic in making this marriage work, organizations began to adopt the Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) model. DZone surveyed 415 developers on the ways in which DevOps teams are building up and taking advantage of their engineering maturity to establish fully functioning CI/CD pipelines.

Explore the State of Continuous Delivery Report: 18 Months into the COVID-19 Pandemic from the CDF.

Some of the key insights from the report are:

• DevOps practices are broadly adopted in all sectors of the software economy, not just in internet-centric applications.
• DevOps is widespread in organizations of all sizes, with at least 80% of professional developers who work for companies of two or more employees being involved in the space.
• There are also no signs that industry velocity is increasing. If anything, the proportion of top performers in terms of lead time for code changes dropped slightly, from 17% in Q3 2020 to 14% in Q3 2021.
• Experience in software development plays a key role in increasing the effectiveness of the software delivery process, both in terms of speed and reliability
