DevOps is a set of practices that combines software development (Dev) and IT operations (Ops) to increase an organization's ability to deliver applications and services faster than traditional software development processes. It outlines a software development process and an organizational culture shift that speeds the delivery of higher quality software by automating and integrating the efforts of these two groups that traditionally practiced separately from each other, or in silos.

At a technical level, DevOps requires a commitment to automation to continually accelerate cycles and improve software quality and performance. The key tools we focus on are Red Hat Ansible Tower, the automation framework for the industry-leading enterprise automation platform, and Red Hat OpenShift, a comprehensive, enterprise-ready container platform.
