DevOps is a suite of services you can implement end-to-end DevOps in your organization.

CI → Continuous integration (CI) is the practice of automating the integration of code changes from multiple contributors into a single software project.

CD → Continuous deployment (CD) is a software release process that uses automated testing to validate if changes to a codebase are correct and stable for immediate autonomous deployment to a production environment.

Continuous delivery (CD) is the automated delivery of completed code to environments like testing and development. CD provides an automated and consistent way for code to be delivered to these environments.

CM → Continuous monitoring is a systematic and ongoing process that uses automated tools and technologies to monitor the performance and security of an organization’s systems and processes.
