The key principles of DevOps can be summarized into 7 main points.

1. Communication and Collaboration:

DevOps emphasizes strong collaboration between development (Dev) and operations (Ops) teams to break down silos and streamline the entire development-to-production process.

2. Automation:

Automating repetitive tasks such as code integration, testing, deployment, and infrastructure management is a core aspect of DevOps. This leads to faster and more consistent processes.

3. Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD):

ยท CI involves frequently merging code changes into a shared repository, followed by automated testing to ensure the integrity of the application.

ยท CD extends CI by automating the deployment process, ensuring that applications can be released to production quickly and reliably.

4. Infrastructure as Code (IaC):

IaC allows teams to manage and provision infrastructure through code and automation, treating infrastructure configurations the same way as application code (versioned and reproducible).

5. Monitoring and Logging:

Continuous monitoring of applications and infrastructure is essential to identify performance issues, security vulnerabilities, and operational inefficiencies. It also allows rapid detection of problems in production.

6. Microservices Architecture:

DevOps encourages breaking down applications into smaller, loosely coupled services (microservices), which can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently.

7. Agile Methodology:

DevOps often incorporates Agile practices, emphasizing iterative development, customer feedback, and adapting to changes quickly.

To apply the key principles of DevOps, there are certain tools that DevOps engineers use to work.

1. Version Control: Tools like Git and Azure Repos enable collaboration on code, version tracking, and easy rollbacks.

2. CI/CD Pipelines: Tools like Jenkins, Azure DevOps, and CircleCI automate the building, testing, and deployment of applications.

3. Containerization and Orchestration: Docker and Kubernetes (including Azure Kubernetes Service - AKS) are used to package applications and manage containerized workloads efficiently.

4. Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Tools like Terraform, Ansible, and Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates allow automated provisioning and management of infrastructure.

5. Monitoring and Logging: Tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Azure Monitor, and ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) provide real-time monitoring, logging, and analytics.

6. Automated Testing: Tools like Selenium, JUnit, and Azure Test Plans help in automating unit, integration, and UI tests.

It is day 100 now. After 100 days of pure committment to conquering this challenge, Iโ€™m thrilled to complete the 100daysofcode challenge! I would like to thank everyone who has followed up with my posts and supported me throughout this journey. It means a lot to me. Also, I hope that youโ€™ve benefited from the content I covered from day 1.

This challenge was not easy. It required a lot of commitment each and every day to post. However, what makes it worth it is the amount of information you may gain if you take 10 minutes of your time to learn every day. This challenge has taught me a lot.

Every little inch of progress you make is still progress, and it will set you apart from others.

Again, thank you to everyone who supported me on my 100daysofcode journey. Hopefully, I will attempt this challenge again once I dive deep into other aspects of Computer Science.
