This presentation was delivered by Pink Elephant for the launch of the DevOps Certification framework in Asia. During the two-hour breakfast session, speakers Jan-Willem Middelburg and Karen Chua explained the business case for DevOps and provided an overview of the DevOps Certification Scheme of the DevOps Agile Skills Association (DASA).
DevOps is a culture, movement or practice that emphasizes the collaboration and communication between all relevant information-technology (IT) professionals to deliver high quality, valuable IT services to customers. It aims to improve the performance of the IT services through establishing flow in the delivery of all aspects of the IT service. Which means creating a culture, organization, and environment in which the building, testing, releasing and supporting software and infrastructure changes can happen rapidly, frequently and more reliably, often through extensive automation.
