    2.2 times more likely to have seen improvements in customer retention

    2 times more likely to have seen improvements in customer acquisition

    3 times more likely to have seen progress on market share

    2.3 times more likely to have seen improvements in customer profitability

    2.2 times more likely to have seen new income streams

 

According to the survey, the top three demand drivers in APJ for implementing DevOps were to keep pace with escalating customer demands, to have rapid response to business requests, and to create new and innovative customer experiences.

 

To maximize DevOps effectiveness, there are nine key factors required though few have actually done all of them, based on feedback from respondents in the study.

    70 percent of the respondents who have implemented DevOps in India have a well-defined DevOps strategy and objectives.

    53 percent respondents who have already implemented DevOps consider Security and compliance measures important.

    Furthermore, while 50 percent of India respondents considered business stakeholder education to be important, and 38 percent are gaining the importance of ensuring adequate knowledge of business priorities within IT.

    Successfully fostering teamwork remains a significant barrier to DevOps success. Respondents in India found the breaking down of cultural barriers between Dev and Ops teams to be the most challenging task, with almost 43 percent having achieved cultural harmony within IT.
