What is one key purpose of DevOps?

= DevOps is a mindset, culture, and set of technical practices that supports the integration, automation, and collaboration needed to effectively develop and operate a solution. DevOps joins development and operations to enable continuous delivery, which means delivering value to customers in the shortest sustainable lead time. Continuous delivery is achieved by creating a Continuous Delivery Pipeline (CDP), which is a high-performance innovation engine that consists of four elements: Continuous Exploration, Continuous Integration, Continuous Deployment, and Release on Demand. DevOps also helps to improve the quality, reliability, and security of the solution by applying practices such as testing, monitoring, and feedback throughout the CDP. References: = DevOps - Scaled Agile Framework, Continuous Delivery Pipeline - Scaled Agile Framework
