<\/span>About DevOps<\/span><\/h2>\n

Over the years DevOps has become quite the buzzword. Although DevOps has been challenging to describe because of its abstract nature, it\u2019s described mainly as a culture change, where Dev and Ops teams collaborate to establish a more agile and reliable framework that counts on trust, transparency, and seamless communication to improve productivity and speed of software development from code commit to deploy.<\/p>\n

Adoption of new techniques, better tools, and improved collaboration methods continue to be on the rise in the DevOps universe. Enterprises today are looking for automation in the area of continuous integration, continuous testing, and continuous delivery to facilitate their DevOps adoption.<\/p>\n

How to Ensure Peak Performance of Applications in Production \u00bb<\/a><\/div>\n

A typical DevOps process consists of 8 stages: plan, code, build, test, release, deploy, operate and monitor. There is a plethora of tools available \u2014 open source and OEM solutions \u2014 that can be used for each of these stages and some across various stages. There\u2019s no single magical tool to implement or facilitate DevOps. As organizations embark on their DevOps journey, they will have to research, evaluate and try various tools for various functionalities. To make it simple for DevOps teams, we have put together a list of 10 DevOps tools that can be used to achieve a successful DevOps transformation.<\/p>\n

\"eGMonitoring is a critical part of software development and deployment. Through all the stages of DevOps, from code build to test and commit to deploy DevOps teams need to understand the impact that their code will have on pre-production and production environments. eG Enterprise is a continuous monitoring tool allows tracking application performance<\/a> in the context of code changes to understand how they impact performance. If there are slow transactions, eG Enterprise uses distributed transaction tracing<\/a> to highlight if that\u2019s due to a certain line of code that\u2019s executing slowly, or due to slow third-party calls, or because of slow database queries.<\/p>\n

\"Distributed<\/p>\n

Distributed transaction tracing in eG Enterprise<\/div>\n

Integrating continuous monitoring with continuous integration and continuous delivery is critical to identifying bugs early in the development lifecycle. eG Enterprise provides a converged visibility of applications and their supporting IT infrastructure (across containers and microservices environments) allowing Dev, Ops and DevOps teams to easily highlight the impact of releases before production rollout. In production environments, eG Enterprise alerts application teams of user experience issues in real time. Synthetic monitoring<\/a> can be employed for proactive incident tracking<\/a> before end-user impact.<\/p>\n
