Devops series-article-02-Change is the basic nature of Universe. What makes Devops so special?

Yes. Change is the basic nature of universe. As we are, from infant to adult and old... . Universe changes continuously to never ending time. Our systems, practices, knowledge changes from time to time. If you can see, much things are automated on mobile from last 17-20 years.
        Around year 2000, a mobile phone can be used for very regular purposes. But, today, using the same mobile phone we can hand the universe. Think ? . How many things included in to it automatically for many of day to day activities. In the same way, our software cycles, systems and practices automated time to time.
       The age old story is, many people used to work for each activity in an environment. One needs to depend on other. For example, there should be at least one resource in the team to place new build in the test environment. There is another resource who can run basic test scripts on the build. So on... . A software life cycle includes many phases, coding , building, testing, performance analyzing, running, so on. "What if we automate most of the phases activities using tools available ?". There comes the Devops. It is all about integrating available tools either open source or commercial to automate the build activities that improves reliability, efficiency and also saves lot of time and money to the organization.
       Devops automates an organization's purpose using its tool set that makes so many things move on their own. It doesn't mean that there is no human intervention but it does mean that "a message carrying Dove once.........., is replaced by the mobile signal that carries information today. YES. "Change is the basic nature of Universe" .
