Abstract

To succeed with the development, deployment, and operation of the new generation of complex systems, organizations need the agility to adapt to constantly evolving environments. In this context, DevOps has emerged as an evolution of the agile approaches. It focuses on optimizing the flow of activities involved in the creation of end-user value, from idea to deployed functionality and operating systems. However, in spite of its popularity, DevOps still lacks proper engineering frameworks to support continuous improvement. One of our key objectives is to contribute to the development of a DevOps engineering framework composed of process, methods, and tools. A core part of this framework relates to the modeling of the different aspects of the DevOps system. To better understand the requirements of modeling in a DevOps context, we focus on a Product Build use case provided by an industry partner.
