The term DevOps is a combination
of two teams in an enterprise. Development and Operations.
DevOps is a software development methodology that impacts the culture, practices, and tools of software development.
DevOps describes the adoption of iterative software development, automation, and programmable infrastructure deployment and maintenance.

Etsy used to deploy just twice a week and collaboration between teams was non-existent. After adopting the DevOps methodology. Etsy started deploying its own code. They now deploy 60 times a day. And run 14,000 test suites a day.
