Introduction

The rise in Information Technology has revolutionized the financial services industry. Digitization of financial services has given rise to a new space in the industry known as FinTech (Financial Technology).

FinTech bridges finance & tech, using software to streamline transactions. Legacy finance struggles to adapt to regulations, security needs, and constant innovation.

DevOps streamlines development by automating tasks and fostering collaboration between development & operations. This breaks down silos, allowing faster, more secure software delivery.

Core Principles of DevOps

DevOps bridges the gap between development and operations, fostering collaboration from planning to delivery through cultural shifts and tools.

Implementation of DevOps depends on building a culture within the organization that follows the core principles of DevOps which are:

• Collaboration:

DevOps fosters collaboration across development, testing, and operations, streamlining processes and promoting shared knowledge. This boosts efficiency in testing, deployment, and maintenance.

• Automation:

Automating repetitive tasks (testing, deployment) in development speeds up delivery, reduces errors, and enhances reliability.

• Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery:

Continuous integration merges code, automates testing, improves quality, and speeds up releases. Continuous delivery extends this by deploying to production automatically.

• Feedback Driven:

DevOps automates tasks, freeing teams to focus on customer needs. Shorter feedback loops and faster response times enhance the customer experience.
