Agile, DevOps and CI/CD have all been driven by the competitive need to deliver value faster to customers. Each advancement requires some changes to processes, tools, technology and culture, although not all teams approach the shift holistically. Some focus on tools hoping to drive process changes when process changes and goals should drive tool selection. More fundamentally, teams need to adopt an increasingly inclusive mindset that overcomes traditional organizational barriers and tech-related silos so the DevOps team can achieve an automated end-to-end CI/CD pipeline.
