What is DevOps Engineering? Who is DevOps Engineer?

Image
In today's world where information systems and technologies are changing and developing at a dizzying pace, roles, responsibilities and professions are also changing and transforming. One of the new roles that is frequently sought after and that we are used to hearing about is the DevOps Engineer.  DevOps is an approach model that ensures that developed applications and systems are delivered to customers quickly and without interruption. The units and specialties that play a role in traditional product development, commissioning, maintenance and monitoring processes have left certain authorities and responsibilities to the DevOps Engineer with the establishment of the DevOps approach and culture.  This new organizational structure seems to have created a position that is key and can manage several departments and software systems like an orchestra conductor and at the same time overcome problems with technical knowledge. What should a DevOps Engineer know? First of all, he/she...

Most Popular DevOps CI/CD Tools

With so many CI/CD tools available, it has become very important to choose the best CI/CD tools that suitable for your budget and company requirements. To make your job easier, I have created a list that we think I help you choose the best CI/CD tool. Jenkins: Jenkins is Java based and one of the widely used CI/CD tools because it is open source. Jenkins supports building, deploying, and automating any project. It also provides real time test and reporting.  Can be run on Windows, Linux and macOS Open source, start-ups and large-scale companies prefer it. Has extensible architecture Integrated with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud etc.) Can be used complex CD requirements. You can visit Jenkins site for more details and download. GitLab CI / CD:  GitLab CI is integrated with GitLab platform. It has user friendly and easy interface. GitLab provides seamless automation from code commit to production. GitLab also includes AI support. Can be monitored by team to...

Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI / CD) Pipeline

Image
 In previous post, I mentioned a bit about CI/CD. Now, I will try to explain detailly about CI/CD pipeline that is main skeleton of DevOps approach. Developers and IT operation teams work together to deliver the software during CI/CD pipeline steps.  The main benefit of CI/Cd pipeline, automation of software releases. Other benefits are reduced deployment time, decreased operaiton costs, continuous feedback ann monitoring so early error detection,  enhanced reliablity and reduced downtime, increased collaboration between teams. Let's detail of CI / CD pipeline steps a bit more;  Plan:  When we are in a process of developing a software in a company, probably this is a part of a project or IT service (change or incident).  Let's suppose Agile project management. (for getting deep information about agile approach, please visit Scrum Website ) For project, Scrum Master sets sprint plan. At the end of the sprint, DevOps teams must deliver a "value" (like a worki...

Main Topics of DevOps

Image
  DevOps is a methodology that aims to increase communication and collaboration between software development teams, security teams and IT operations teams. Continuous Integration (CI)   : The practice of control mechanism that automate and test all code changes in a code branch. This control provides possible bugs and problems early and fix them immediately. This control cycle provides quality assurance so software quality increases.  Continuous Delivery (CD) : If code has no error and built successfully, it is sent to production environment automatically by creating CD pipeline. This is called continuous delivery. In this concept, we always "use" delivery instead of "deployment" term ☺Continuous delivery provides us transfer any changes of code to test, pre-prod or production environment. We can also automate and monitor this delivery process detailly.  Source Code Version Control Tools : These tools is very useful and important for managing and versioning code ch...

Hello!

Hello Dear Everyone,  This blog includes my DevSecOps journey. I'm plannig to share my experience during DevSecOps project for our company. Also, I will give some information about DevSecOps tools that include comparisons.

What is DevSecOps?

Image
Dev : Software Development Sec : Information Security Ops : IT Operations. DevSecOps is the collaboration of Software Development, Information Security and IT Operations that includes a set of applications, tools and mindsets.  Main objectives and principles of DevSecOps; Continuous Integration & Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) Automation Logging  Monitoring Collaboration & Comminucation Mindset & Cultural Adaptation DevOps approach covers all part of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and is involved in all processes from planning to development, testing, deployment, and monitoring of a software. This approach allows software to be developed and delivered faster, more reliably, and more efficiently.
