As organizations increasingly adopt DevOps as part of the digital initiative, the very nature of DevOps is rapidly changing. As DevOps as a Service, security-first design patterns, containerization and microservices come into focus, it’s clear that DevOps is becoming the de facto means by which organizations build, run and secure their modern applications.

Consider a situation in which you’ve developed a groundbreaking website, and you would like to share your content with the world. The problem is that your hosting provider is based in New York, and you’re concerned that a user from a different region, such as Europe or Australia, won’t be able to view your content quickly and reliably. Amazon CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN) solution that allows your content distribution to be shared in an accelerated manner from multiple edge locations around the world.

The JFrog and SumoLogic collaboration will deliver industry-first technology offering insights into their software development operations as they build, run and secure their modern applications.

What is containerization? Software containers are a form of OS virtualization where the running container includes just the minimum operating system resources, memory and services required to run an application or service. Containers enable developers to work with identical development environments and stacks. But they also facilitate DevOps by encouraging the use of stateless designs.

According to the Puppet Labs’ 2015 State of DevOps Report high-performing IT organizations deploy 30 times more frequently with 200 times shorter lead times; they have 60 times fewer failures and recover 168 times faster. While staggering, those numbers should also lend credence to the fact that DevOps, however you spell it, is working.
