Inside DevOps

Is DevOps a problem in your team?

25 Jan 2023 · By Miiro Juuso

As you probably know, DevOps is one of the most sought-after skills on the software engineering market right now.

Many companies have had their budget allocations and project roadmap set, but simply can’t find the DevOps expertise to get things done. This leads to DevOps tasks piling up in the backlogs of delivery teams - and more critically, less than optimal solutions being implemented.

Here are a few tell-tale signs that DevOps is a problem in your team:

  • You have problems with your development and testing environments, and it takes a long time to create new environments

  • Software releases happen infrequently (less than once per month)

  • Software releases are “scary events”

  • You encounter stability issues or production incidents, especially after software releases

  • Rolling back a failed software release is an all-hands-on-deck event

  • Your team spends too much time fixing broken build, test, or deployment pipelines

Does this sound familiar? You’re not alone - according to our research, over 40% of software teams struggle with DevOps. Speak with us today to see how Releaseworks® can help.
