DevOps is a very popular software development and deployment methodology. It helps the Development and Operations teams make software development quicker, faster, and error-free. In addition, this methodology helps with the faster deployment of innovative features and products, keeping security and governance as top priorities.

DevOps has been there for quite some time now. However, some new trends are found to go the rounds. In this blog, the top five trends are detailed. When you talk to your DevOps teams or a DevOps services company, you may keep these in mind.

The top 5 trends

  • Serverless Computing: Let’s first understand why serverless computing is trending. The server infrastructure needed for the big CAPEX and OPEX is the primary reason why the concept of serverless computing came into existence. Additionally, serverless computing ensures cost-efficiency, speed, reliability, and flexibility. Below are a few more benefits of serverless computing.
    • Channelizing resources to more important business activities, instead of infrastructure management.
    • DevOps team gets relief from the risk of maintenance glitches.
  • Microservices: By bifurcating monolith applications into small segments or services, microservices bring in greater agility and scalability across the software development lifecycle. This is a great opportunity to scale each application segment, instead of scaling the entire application at a go. Also, deploying small new features without disrupting the entire code base is possible with microservices architecture.
  • DevSecOps: The rise of security concerns got companies thinking. Especially during and after the Covid-19 pandemic, the security of software applications has been a pressing question. To prevent cyberattacks, many organizations now prefer to integrate and automate security measures into their DevOps processes. Once this deployment is complete, the DevOps team can plan and monitor security risks across the software development lifecycle. As a result, the speed and quality of delivery shoot up.
  • Low-code Application: Due to the fact that low-code applications can swiftly be deployed, many organizations have started using them. With a huge boost in productivity, developers and the DevOps teams are joining hands to use low-code applications to support the entire software development cycle.
  • AI and ML-Driven: Optimization is crucial for every process. DevOps is no exception. With optimization, catching up with changing workload and environment becomes easier. There are two ways AI and ML can help DevOps: improving feedback loops and managing alerts. AI and ML help developers, too. In terms of the performance of operational metrics, recognizing and analyzing patterns, building success, and completing tests, AI and ML are beneficial.
  • Cloud-Native Infrastructure: Implementing a Cloud Management Platform is necessary for cloud security, on-time risk mitigation, and better resource utilization. This is why organizations must implement this platform as soon as possible. This will support cloud-based apps and business processes.
