Book Description
DevOps is a practical field that focuses on delivering business value as
efficiently as possible. DevOps encompasses all the flows from code
through testing environments to production environments. It stresses the
cooperation between different roles, and how they can work together more
closely, as the roots of the word imply-Development and Operations.
After a quick refresher to DevOps and continuous delivery, we quickly
move on to looking at how DevOps affects architecture. You'll create a
sample enterprise Java application that you'll continue to work with
through the remaining chapters. Following this, we explore various code
storage and build server options. You will then learn how to perform
code testing with a few tools and deploy your test successfully. Next,
you will learn how to monitor code for any anomalies and make sure it's
running properly. Finally, you will discover how to handle logs and keep
track of the issues that affect processes
