To accelerate DevOps maturity, you need organizationwide automation, cross-functional alignment, and adoption of DevOps platforms. Treating the DevOps platform as a product and embedding security practices (DevSecOps) is critical for reducing risk and delivering business value. Leveraging AI for IT operations (AIOps) and continuous testing also enhances software quality and resilience. Value stream management connects software delivery with measurable business outcomes, while site reliability engineering (SRE) balances innovation with reliability at scale. And incorporating technologies like low-code development and genAI helps boost productivity and adapt to evolving demands.
