Integrating DevOps Workflows

As Eric Billingsley writes on DevOps.com, the challenges developers face include poor interoperability between tools and manual handoffs causing DevOps automation silos, adding unnecessary complexity, and increased policy and security requirements that simply cannot scale and remain manual.

Atlassian describes how this can be achieved through an all-in-one vendor offering, for example the full stack Azure DevOps toolchain, or a toolchain customized for a team’s needs with different tools.

Atlassian offers their Open DevOps platform and ecosystem, where a multitude of tools can be mixed and matched across functions of planning, build, CI/CD and testing.
