DevOps has a different meaning to everyone, but most would agree, at its core, that it is a set of practices to deliver a higher quality product. Recently, one of our clients modernized a full suite of their applications to better manage their long-term needs. Among the expected technical challenges of updating a handful of projects in parallel came the desire to minimize downtime between projects. It became apparent that effective collaboration would be a key component to creating a smooth handoff from analysis/design to development/QA and finally to deployment/maintenance. For our use, Azure DevOps served as a team-wide collaboration tool used in all project iterations to equip our team for success.
