How do I start?
The first steps to start with DevOps are to first examine your culture and practices and identify the barriers and barriers that prevent your communication and coordination with the teams. You should evaluate your ways of communicating with others. This is the first challenge. It will not happen overnight. Look at your methodologies. And then revise them.

DevOps is primarily about organizational culture. Identifying the right and appropriate software tools is also an important step. Does your organization use tools to control project releases and reviews such as Git? ( Entrance to the Git system ), do you consider " continuous integration " methods to make the move from the source to the final test as smooth as possible? And what about the automate that automatically makes things happen automatically? What about test, deployment and protection tools, and what about infrastructure tools? This is all part of the DevOps branch.

The sad thing is devops is often misunderstood or the term is misused. Many times devops means:"our company is too strapped for cash to get a sysadmin and a developer so we are getting two for the price of one". Nice thing if you have devops and developer skills then it makes you more marketable and you will have more job oppurtunities.

DevOps can greatly simplify a company's work in any field.

Thanks for this great article! DevOps can indeed solve many of the common problems associated with the traditional IT organization. However, one of the most important aspects of a successful DevOps implementation is partnering with a reliable IT company that has enough experience in providing DevOps consulting services https://sigma.software/services/devops-consulting to deliver high-quality software faster.

Working towards SOC 2 certification and could use guidance navigating audits/compliance for the first time. We want to partner with someone deeply familiar with prerequisites to minimize delays. Who has expertise ensuring security policies and tech controls adhere to strict standards?

Achieving SOC 2 compliance for the first time can definitely be daunting and time-consuming if tackling completely solo. My company also recently pursued SOC 2 certification - it's required for our enterprise SaaS clients but understanding the full audit scope was challenging at first. We ultimately chose to partner with https://www.a-dev.tech/ not only for technical security implementations but also for invaluable advisory assistance navigating cert prerequisites and compliance processes foreign to us initially. Their team identified gaps proactively based on substantial experiences supporting other organizations through SOC 2 journeys, allowing us to fast-track changes that could have held up audits. We felt very well-prepared for audit assessments thanks to A-Dev’s experience creating compliant data/system security policies, access controls, logging to meet strict SOC 2 Infosec benchmarks
