DevOps and Open Source 101
The DevOps Role in Modernizing Open Source Best Practices
Tasked with automating developer workflow, the DevOps team has a growing amount of responsibilities — especially when it comes to ensuring that the open source software used at a company is secure and compliant. DevOps and Open Source 101: The DevOps Role in Modernizing Open Source Best Practices discusses:
- Modern software development practices and their reliance on open source
- The origin and evolution of DevOps, and the impact of open source on the role
- Deployment, continuous compliance and risk management
- Incorporating open source management into CI/CD
With each open source project, security and compliance need to be vetted. Security is an obvious concern, but open source license compliance is also essential because a lack of compliance to otherwise “free” open source tools can have a revenue impact when proof is required for enterprise sales, M&A, IPO or distribution on application platforms.
