Expected DevOps Advancements in 2023
CIO Review APAC | Monday, August 21, 2023

The DevOps progression is a growing field that is impacted by a number of variables, including technological advancements, market trends, and organisational requirements.
FREMONT, CA: DevOps is a collection of cultural philosophies, methods, and tools that improves an organisation's ability to deliver applications and services at high velocity: evolving and improving products at a faster rate than traditional software development and infrastructure management processes.

Containerization, microservices, and serverless computing are likely to remain popular in DevOps environments because they allow organisations to more effectively and quickly build, deploy, and manage applications. It allows teams to implement and make changes to applications more quickly and helps organisations to move more quickly and respond to changing business needs. It can also provide more flexibility and agility to DevOps teams by allowing them to build and deploy applications on a variety of tools and platforms.
Security and Compliance
As more organisations adopt cloud-based infrastructure and services, DevOps teams must focus more on cloud security and compliance. Making sure that cloud environments are configured securely, that data is encrypted both during transmission and once it has arrived at its destination, and that access to cloud resources is controlled and monitored are a few examples of what this might entail. It focuses on developing secure applications and ensuring that they are tested and deployed safely. Implementing secure coding practices, incorporating security testing into the development process, and deploying applications with secure configurations are all examples of this.
Partnership Between the Development and Operations Teams
The DevOps movement is built around the idea of trying to bring together development and operations teams to collaborate more closely and effectively. They must work together to identify and resolve issues that arise in production environments, as well as develop strategies to avoid similar problems in the future and ensure that systems have the necessary resources to meet demand, and plan for future growth.
Automation and AI Will Continue to Evolve
Automated tools can assist DevOps teams in scripting repetitive tasks, improving efficiency, and lowering the risk of human error, whereas AI can be used to analyse the data, identify patterns, and support in making more informed decisions. The evolution of automation and AI in DevOps is likely to result in more efficient and effective processes, as well as improved application and system performance and reliability. However, organisations must carefully consider the potential impact of these technologies and ensure that they are used in a way that aligns with their business goals and values, including required integration into business processes from the start, alignment of expectations and goals, cost estimation, and associated risks and challenges.
Support for Multiple Clouds Via Infrastructure as Code
Multicloud support for Infrastructure as code (IaC) refers to the ability to manage and automate the right resources and configuration across multiple cloud platforms using IaC practices and tools. This includes defining and deploying infrastructure resources such as virtual machines, networks, and storage, as well as managing their configuration. It can assist businesses in achieving greater consistency and common standards across their environments, along with reducing the complexity of managing resources across multiple cloud platforms. Multi-cloud support for IaC will almost certainly continue to be an important factor for organisations looking to optimise their use of multiple cloud platforms and streamline the management of their multi-cloud infrastructure.
