AI-Driven DevOps: How Artificial Intelligence is Reshaping Software Delivery

DevOps (development and operation) has dramatically changed processes of management in tech companies. This method or, as they say, religion, introduced new philosophy into development and operations. Earlier, when only the waterfall method was used, all deployments were really painful: if something went wrong you had to look for the reason on every stage, in every team. Every change in development had an impact on operations and vice versa. After the introduction of DevOps method the interaction between development and operations prevented a lot of mistakes and made deployment much easier.
