Oracle announced new capabilities to help customers accelerate the development of applications and deployment on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
A majority (83%) of developers report being involved in DevOps-related activities, according to the latest State of CI/CD Report from the Continuous Delivery Foundation (CDF).
Key findings from this year's report also include:
■ Less experienced developers adopt fewer DevOps practices and technologies.
■ Strong correlation between the number of DevOps technologies used by developers and their likelihood of being a top performer.
■ Source control management and issue tracking hold the top spots for the most widely used DevOps technologies.
■ Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery are the fourth and fifth most popular DevOps-related activities.
■ CI/CD tools usage is associated with better deployment performance across all DORA metrics and is greatest among developers using both managed and self-hosted tools.
■ Proportion of low performers for each of the deployment performance metrics is increasing — a worrying trend.
■ Deployment performance is worse when using multiple CI/CD tools of the same form, likely as a result of challenges related to interoperability.
"The State of CI/CD Report results show continued high adoption of CD and DevOps practices, the influence of well-integrated technologies on organizational outcomes, the necessity of incorporating security tests in CI/CD workflows, and the impact of using multiple CD tools on deployment performance," says Dadisi Sanyika, CD Foundation Governing Board Chair.
Methodology: The CD Foundation publishes vendor-neutral data on key DevOps and development metrics, providing insights into where Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) stand in 2024 and beyond. These findings on DevOps adoption and performance across industries are based on data from SlashData's past eight Developer Nation surveys, which reached more than 150,000 respondents worldwide over three and a half years.
