CONCURRENT DEVSECOPS
UNLOCKS AGILITY TO
ACCELERATE APAC’S DIGITAL
TRANSFORMATION
Anthony McMahon, Regional Director APAC, GitLab, and
Valerie Silverthorne, Senior Content Editor, GitLab, discuss
how improving collaboration across different teams can pay
significant dividends.
As the COVID-19 crisis escalates the
focus on Digital Transformation in
the region, the pressure to produce
better code faster has never been more
intense. An increasing number of APAC
organizations choose DevSecOps to bring
traditionally siloed developers, security
and ops teams together and they count
on continuous integration and continuous
deployment (CI/CD) to speed up their
software innovation cycle times.
Continuous Integration (CI) is a way
to tackle the always tedious and timeconsuming
job of testing code and it does
so in a way that does not add any extra
burden to developers. Code tests and checks
are automated and the results are delivered
back to the developer. CI also allows
developers to split tests and builds across
different machines which cuts the time
involved and makes multitasking possible.
Continuous Deployment (CD) picks up where
CI leaves off – tested and checked code can
be automatically deployed to production
using the CI server. Together, CI/CD
represent a way to automate the most timeconsuming
steps in software development
and deployment.
Solving universal problems
in software development
and deployment
Virtually every company struggles with
the same set of problems that CI/CD can
potentially solve.
