DevOps is an engineering practice and a set of concepts based on that practice that aim at unifying new product development (the Dev part) and operations (the Ops part). The primary feature of DevOps is to strongly advocate automation and monitoring at all steps of the project such as integration, testing, releasing to deployment, and infrastructure management. DevOps aims at shorter development cycles, increased deployment frequency, more dependable releases, in close alignment with business objectives. Functions of DevOps office staffers can be compared with those of project management office (PMO) in a traditional project management framework.
