    Study Notes

    ITIL Principles

    • Focus on delivering value to stakeholders, especially customers.
    • Start with existing systems and optimize them.
    • Progress iteratively with feedback after each step.
    • Collaborate and communicate openly for visibility.
    • Work holistically, ensuring all activities align with value delivery.
    • Keep processes simple and practical, eliminating unnecessary steps.
    • Optimize and automate to improve functionality and free up resources.

    Elements of DevOps

    • People: DevOps teams are built around specific applications, bringing together all personnel involved in the development and operation of the application. This fosters collaboration.
    • Process: The CI/CD pipeline (Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, and Continuous Deployment) streamlines software delivery.
      • Continuous Integration automates the building of artifacts and initial tests.
      • Continuous Delivery delivers builds to test environments, requiring manual deployment to production.
      • Continuous Deployment automates deployment to production, building on Continuous Delivery principles.
    • Technology: Choose the right tools for the specific technology stack.

    DevOps Principles

    • Culture: Change the culture to embrace responsibility for the entire product, encourage innovation, promote communication, and foster experimentation.
    • Automation: Automate repetitive tasks for faster delivery and immediate feedback. This is crucial for areas like infrastructure setup.
    • Lean:
      • Minimize complexity in processes.
      • Reduce waste like defects and convoluted processes to streamline delivery.
    • Measurement: Track metrics to measure the effectiveness of the delivery process and use feedback for process automation.
