The more developed the world of technology, the heavier the burden on application developers. In the past, the program was still small in scale and did not involve a lot of technology, it was enough to only handle 1 person, but now this responsibility seems difficult if it is done by one person, especially if the application scale is very large. Therefore, the information technology department is usually divided into several divisions according to their duties and responsibilities, for example the network division, design division, front-end division, back-end division and so on. In this article, we will discuss the development of a division that is relatively new compared to other divisions, namely the DevOps division.

DevOps is literally a unit of people, processes, and products that continuously provide value or benefits to end users or end users. Work as DevOps is not only about automating the process of automation and efficiency of application support infrastructure, but DevOps has a key role to deliver value or benefits. In simple language DevOps is a principle that plays a role in bridging collaboration between developer (Dev) and operations (Ops) to improve application delivery efficiency.

The existence of DevOps in the company is useful for speeding up application delivery to end users and detecting bugs and errors in applications before and when the application is in production. According to the State of DevOps in its 2015 report, IT organizations that implement DevOps have 30 times higher performance, 200 times more efficiency, 60 times fewer errors or failures, and 168 times faster recovery in the event of a crash. Broadly speaking, the duties and responsibilities of DevOps are as follows:

1. Implement pipeline CI/CD automation.
   
   
2. Monitor applications to ensure applications run to the standard.
   
   
3. Collaborate with other divisions to design efficient application architectures.
   
   
4. Design, create, and integrate software integration prototypes.
   
   
5. Perform security, performance, and availability testing.
   
   
6. Build container systems and virtualization.
