Actor
DevOps Team
Scenario
The DevOps Team needs a development environment to build, test, and deploy software applications.
The DevOps Team utilizes cloud computing to quickly spin up development, testing, and production environments based on specific needs.
The cloud-based development environment includes automated provisioning of physical and virtual machines, streamlining the setup process.
Without utilizing cloud computing, organizations would need to secure a budget and set up testing environments with physical assets, which can be time-consuming and costly.
Cloud computing accelerates the development process by providing cloud-based development tools and platforms that make creating apps and software faster, easier, and more cost-effective.
Cloud computing also enables the DevOps process, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud-native advancements like microservices, serverless computing, and containerization.
These technologies facilitate rapid acceleration and innovation in software development, but rely on a self-sustaining cloud infrastructure capable of supporting the hundreds of services involved.
Use Case
