Chapter 6. Getting Serious About DevOps
Established enterprise companies must work hard to keep up with competitors—including startups threatening to disrupt mature markets. Enterprises across a range of industries are turning to agile development and DevOps as a solution to these challenges.
For example, the financial services industry has given rise to a large number of new financial technology or fintech companies. This unprecedented level of business change is driving established financial services companies to move to a DevOps model. As one industry observer noted:
