DevOps is a term derived from the words Development and Operations. It is an organizational methodology designed to erode the barriers between the silos of Development and Operations within an organisation. The ultimate goal of DevOps is to create cross functional teams that are made up of experts from all areas of an organisation tasked with delivering a product or service to accelerate and simplify the development and delivery of applications. Members of the cross functional teams may become poly-skilled over time due to working in close proximity with colleagues.
