The Definition of DevOps
DevOps is a series of methods aimed at organizing the association and interaction between developers and operations staff. Coordinating the activities of these professionals helps them work together, resulting in mutually integrated workflows and a single cycle that focuses on software development, testing, and operation.
Thanks to DevOps engineers, companies are able to maneuver their services or products in time. Just imagine a company where production stops once a week and employees take the finished product to the point of sale. Although this should be handled by another service.
Ideally, if the products from the production facilities on an automated conveyor will reach the store directly. DevOps software production uses a similar scheme for building such conveyors. Simply put, these are recommendations and tools that show the principles of building and keeping these pipelines up and running.
THE LINE OF BUSINESS OF DEVOPS-ENGINEERS
This specialist is a kind of system administrator who has programming skills and serves as an intermediary between the sysadmin and the developer. People who speak English will easily find a connection in the words "development" and "operations" - development and administration, respectively.
DevOps engineers handle routine tasks, allowing programmers to focus on writing error-free code. In addition, devops promote continuity throughout all stages of software creation, so that the system runs smoothly and updates are released when needed.
The environment where programmers and applications operate includes all sorts of technical software that needs to be configured, supported, tracked, detected, and troubleshooted. The process does not end with a trivial code writing: in order for a customer to get an update, the code should be tested and then delivered to the user. This is what a DevOps engineer does.
SCOPE OF APPLICATION OF THE METHODOLOGY
To gain an understanding of this issue, a comparison should be made between an online bank, a food delivery service, and an app that serves to pay traffic fines. All three areas have a lot in common, namely:
- A medium- or large-sized business with prerequisites for growth and an increase in customer demand.
- Failure of the server brings the project to a halt, and therefore there is a need for a system resistant to failure.
- Availability of cloud solutions.
- High level of competition, leading to the need for frequent updates, functioning steadily.
- A significant concentration of routine tasks of a technical nature. They are invisible to the client, but it is impossible to avoid them.
- A variety of project roles. Knowledge is not concentrated, but contained in different heads. All specialists act in isolation, making it impossible to achieve transparency and integrity of processes.
- There are funds available for such costly pleasures as devops.
If most of the points apply to your company, then it is advisable to start DevOps development, otherwise you can do with ordinary developers.
WHAT TO DO WHEN SEARCHING FOR A DEVOPS ENGINEER
Start by discussing the usefulness and feasibility of technical implementation with development specialists. It is necessary to reach an understanding about the number of required engineers, what level of specialists will be suitable and in what form they can be engaged: freelancers, full-time employees or outsourcing. If the client's business is not large, one engineer and up to 20 IT specialists will be enough.
After that, it will be necessary to draw up a budget. But this will not be easy to do because of the increasing complexity of software development processes and the increased demand, which has led to increased requests for salaries from devops specialists.
Freelancers
On the freelancing exchanges it may well be possible to find a talented specialist at a fairly low cost, getting his hands on and gaining experience. Freelancers understand that he gets paid for the outcome of his work, not for the time spent working on the project, which has a positive effect on motivation. The person will try to do everything quickly and as well as possible. However, such an employee is not particularly influenced or controlled.
Staffers
Having your own employee will provide global access to him or her. The manager knows exactly where he is and how things are going. And the attitude to a full-time specialist is much better.
Nevertheless, a candidate approved as a result of an interview continues to be a risky option. Providing a perfect resume will not guarantee an equally perfect job. In addition, the cost of staffers is much higher compared to freelancers.
Outsourcing
A third option would be to hire a ready-made team with DevOps developers, operators, and testers. These guys will be able to act as a team based on their previous experience. And you can also learn about their skills by reading reviews.
It should be noted that there is a risk of encountering the opposite opinion, because the customer and the team may have different ideas about devops. In order to avoid such a situation, you should outline the DevOps engineer's tasks "on the shore".
