Overview of this book

In the implementation of DevOps processes, the choice of tools is crucial to the sustainability of projects and collaboration between developers and ops. This book presents the different patterns and tools for provisioning and configuring an infrastructure in the cloud, covering mostly open source tools with a large community contribution, such as Terraform, Ansible, and Packer, which are assets for automation. This DevOps book will show you how to containerize your applications with Docker and Kubernetes and walk you through the construction of DevOps pipelines in Jenkins as well as Azure pipelines before covering the tools and importance of testing. You'll find a complete chapter on DevOps practices and tooling for open source projects before getting to grips with security integration in DevOps using Inspec, Hashicorp Vault, and Azure Secure DevOps kit. You'll also learn about the reduction of downtime with blue-green deployment and feature flags techniques before finally covering common DevOps best practices for all your projects. By the end of this book, you'll have built a solid foundation in DevOps and developed the skills necessary to enhance a traditional software delivery process using modern software delivery tools and techniques.

Automating everything

When you want to implement DevOps practices within a company, it is important to remember the purpose of the DevOps culture: it delivers new releases of an application faster, in shorter cycles.

To do this, the first good practice to apply is to automate all tasks that deploy, test, and secure the application and its infrastructure. Indeed, when a task is done manually, there is a high risk of error in its execution. The fact that these tasks are performed manually increases the deployment cycles of applications.

In addition, once these tasks are automated in scripts, they can be easily integrated and executed in CI/CD pipelines. Another advantage of automation is that developers and the operational team can spend more time and focus their work on the functionality of their business.

It is also important to start the automation of the delivery process at the beginning of project development; this allows us to provide feedback faster and earlier.
