What
is AWS DevOps & Why?
As per the present scenario and the before, due to the emergence of AWS DevOps it is being considered as a vital solution which helps the organizations to meet ever growing industry demands. It is usually having the dedicated tools and services. In contrast to the 2016 State of DevOps report which clearly indicates about it’s plain and simple that companies which incorporate DevOps practices get more done and they are in the profit zone. These companies are showing drastically different results than low performers.
Tools for AWS DevOps:
I would like to discuss few important
tools here which will help you to have a kickstart the development process.
1.
You might have heard about the CodeStar. It is a
particularly useful tool to conduct DevOps on AWS. It
is basically used to provides an intuitive user interface which will helps the users
effortlessly to develop, build, and
deploy applications on AWS.
- AWS Cloud
Development Kit: It is
an open-source software development framework that uses familiar
programming languages for modelling and provisioning cloud application
resources.
- AWS
CodeBuild: It is a
tool which is an integration service that scales continuously and
processes multiple builds.
- AWS
CodeDeploy: This
tool automates software deployments to several different computer services
like Amazon EC2, AWS Fargate, AWS Lambda, or any other on-premises servers
you choose.
- AWS CodePipeline: This DevOps tool automates your continuously delivered code for rapid and accurate updates

AWS DevOps Advantage:
Due to its extraordinary capabilities,
it is used to provide the more improvement in terms of their development
strategies of the product. These improvements and findings can be organized
under the following categories as mentioned below:
Working Strategies in AWS DevOps
1. Performance:
As we have already mentioned earlier
that the DevOps is usually having the dedicated tools and services for its
operations, so it enables the continuous software delivery with less
complex problems to fix. It is also much reliable and faster resolution of problems.
It has certainly helped organizations such as Etsy, Netflix, Facebook,
Amazon, Twitter and Google to revolutionize their performance levels and deploy
at a never-before-seen rate.
·
Let us consider the Case Study
of Facebook. As we all know that the Facebook has one of the richest
use-cases of DevOps in the world.
·
It uses this approach to deploys hundreds
and thousands of code updates per day while delivering world-class
stability, reliability and security.
·
It seamlessly manages bi-weekly app and used
to updates.
2. Security:
When we are going to consider any
environment then security is the most important factor for which we are looking
for. In most of the situation, the Higher performance is not the only payoff but
also the security is also important. In the DevOps culture we could be
able to find both the combinations. If we take the survey, then the Organizations
who have adopted the DevOps practices are known to have better information
security. As discussed above if we could see the report of 2016 State of DevOps
Report, then it clearly states that organizations that integrate
information security objectives into daily work spend 50% less time
re-mediating security issues.
So, based on report analysis and finding in stark contrast to the misconception that Security and DevOps do not work well together. There are several topmost organisations are present which has adopted the culture of AWS DevOps such as Etsy and Twitter have busted this myth with their successful integration of security and DevOps.
3. Employee
Engagement:
As per the present scenario and report
analysis we have found that the organization that does not apply the DevOps
methodology are used to have very complex strategy and their employee
engagement is also very poor in terms of productivity. In such companies the
development team were used to writes code and develops a product which
is then sent to the testing team that verifies if the code meets the
requirements. It is usually a long-time practice and requires more time. So,
most of the time the employee engagement is not able to be get done in proper
manner. The operations team steps in to
run the product only after this process is complete.
Hence, the concept of AWS DevOps
philosophy was created to break these silos and bring the companies out of it
by providing the better productivity where the teams are allowed to get operate
in and affect better collaboration and performance.
The culture shift
that DevOps brings about in organizations is substantial and since
culture is a key factor responsible for a company’s performance, application of
the DevOps philosophy provides specific results.
Let us consider the AWS DevOps working
strategies of most popular companies like Infosys.
If we could try to see the previous record, then Infosys have achieved a 5-7% effort reduction across projects. It is used to get such reduction by using collaborative life cycle management solutions and DevOps methods. The fig shows below will let you know about the lifecycle stages of AWS DevOps.
Based on these prospects the Infosys organization could be able to manages 4,000 application development, maintenance, and infrastructure management projects per year. If we relate this analysis with respect to other companies then it is a great hike that the Infosys has achieved by adopting this DevOps culture.
