DevOps Research And Assessment
''DevOps Research and Assessment'' (abbreviated to DORA) is a team that is part of Google Cloud that engages in opinion polling of software engineers to conduct research for the DevOps movement. The DORA team was founded by Nicole Forsgren, Jez Humble and Gene Kim. and conducted research for the DevOps company Puppet and later became an independent team (with Puppet continuing to produce reports by a new team). Whilst the founding members have departed, the DORA team continue to publish research in the form of annual ''State of DevOps Reports''. State of DevOps Reports The DORA team began publishing State of DevOps Reports in 2013. The latest DORA State of DevOps Report, published in 2024, surveyed "more than 39,000 professionals across many industries globally." It found AI is having a broad impact on software development, with largely positive results. "Flow," "productivity," and "job satisfaction" are cited among 8 benefits of AI adoption for software developers. The detri ...

DevOps
DevOps is the integration and automation of the software development and information technology operations. DevOps encompasses necessary tasks of software development and can lead to shortening development time and improving the development life cycle. According to Neal Ford, DevOps, particularly through continuous delivery, employs the "Bring the pain forward" principle, tackling tough tasks early, fostering automation and swift issue detection. Software programmers and architects should use fitness functions to keep their software in check. Although debated, DevOps is characterized by key principles: shared ownership, workflow automation, and rapid feedback. From an academic perspective, Len Bass, Ingo Weber, and Liming Zhu—three computer science researchers from the CSIRO and the Software Engineering Institute—suggested defining DevOps as "a set of practices intended to reduce the time between committing a change to a system and the change being placed into normal produ ...
