The primary goal of DevOps is to shorten the system development life cycle and provide continuous delivery with high software quality. It emphasizes collaboration between developers, IT operations, and other stakeholders to automate and integrate processes.
Setting up, managing, and maintaining the infrastructure required for software development and deployment.

Using tools like Ansible, Puppet, and Chef to manage and configure systems and software.
Implementing monitoring and logging solutions to track system performance and detect issues.
Automating repetitive tasks to improve efficiency and reduce errors.
Working closely with development, operations, and QA teams to ensure smooth integration and delivery of software.
Implementing security best practices and ensuring compliance with security standards.
Analyzing system performance and implementing optimizations to improve efficiency.
Responding to and resolving incidents and outages promptly to ensure system reliability.
