In this paper we aim to explain about the possible benefits of adopting DevOps Practices with the best-in-class
Analytical tools (cognitive computing).
Why do we need DevOps in our organization? Well we may have expert team in software development,
Release management, QA and IT Operations. Is this really enough to deliver the product on time when we use
traditional agile software development approaches alone?
The answer is NO. In general, DevOps practice impacts major changes in IT culture and helps them in rapid
service delivery through the adoption of agile and lean practices with a fully automated lifecycle.
DevOps simply emphasizes people and culture, seeks to improve collaboration between the operations and
development teams. DevOps implementations utilize technologies, especially the major automation tools
that can leverage an increasingly programmable and dynamic infrastructure from a software development
life cycle perspective.

Integrating Cognitive Services
into your DevOps Strategy
What is Cognitive Services?
The main goal of cognitive computing is to create an Automated IT System that should be capable of solving
problem/providing solution without human assistance. It uses machine learning algorithms;
“39% of product development companies are releasing applications monthly or more frequently”
In general, a Cognitive service is a simulation of human thought process in a computerized model, also known
as cognitive computing.
These systems acquire knowledge from the data fed into them by mining data for information. The systems
refine the way they look for patterns and as well as the way they process data so they become capable of
anticipating new problems and modeling possible solutions. Cognitive computing is used in numerous artificial
intelligence (AI) applications, including expert systems, natural language programming, neural networks,
robotics and virtual reality.

Sales and demand are heavily time dependent. Sales fluctuation at different seasons of the year is one of the
hardest challenges for good forecasting and demand planning initiatives.
Over the last several years DevOps teams focused on automating the application delivery using a few
provisioning, release and automation tools. Now it’s time for DevOps team to automate the way we support
applications in production by leveraging application/software analytics and machine learning to automate the
manual tasks involved in incident detection, troubleshooting and root cause analysis. Very soon we expect to
see a new concept of Analytics- powered by DevOps and ITOA (IT Operations Analytics) tools that will help
deal with the actual challenges faced in DevOps by collecting and analyzing all the changes across entire
environments. Monitoring all actual changes and analyzing them together with release and deployment data,
will allow for smooth, error free releases. Think about a scenario, A person sitting in a remote location and
monitoring the complete delivery pipeline through an Analytics tool.

Think Big: DevOps with Analytics
"Gartner recognized IT Operations Analytics as an area on the rise with high impact
on IT operations. So the analysts recognized that analytics will enable to perform
processes that will significantly increase revenues or cost savings for the enterprise."

By doing so, analyzing the detailed changes and validating the change configuration across the IT
environment (including application deployment) can help the IT Ops team to avoid below scenarios
As the complexity of the current infrastructure environment and operations process grows, without applying
the IT Analytics, we may lead to continually perform repetitive operations, time consuming tasks in order to
close these automation gaps.
Integrating Cognitive Services
into your DevOps Strategy
When using mathematical algorithms and other innovations, IT Analytics tools can carry out the calculations
that churn through these immense amounts of data and extract valuable information from tons of raw data.
Textual pattern analytics
Textual pattern analytics helps to analyze the
streams of textual data, such as logs. It can
also find patterns that can be used to identify
the conditions and behaviors.
Statistical pattern analytics
Statistical pattern analytics evidence the existence of relationships where explicit relations are either weak or
missing, statistically comparing performance patterns to identify common behaviors and therefore, implicit
relationships.
Configuration analytics
Configuration analytics can help to capture all
the change configurations across the IT
environments and analyze configurations to
detect what changes have been made when
the system was working fine. It also can help
to verify the change consistency between
environments and identify the discrepancies
from desired configuration.
Real Power of IT Analytics
How IT Analytics tools can help IT Operations
• Inadequate data of “Infrastructure Changes”, that fails to accommodate the gaps.
• Inconsistent production environment where the changes are made.
• Validating the pre-production environment, i.e. when the changes take place in the production and
operations, how do they get back-reflected into the pre-production environment?
“ITOA (IT Operations Analytics) tools will help deal with the actual challenges faced
in DevOps ”

Monitor the service and end-users post deployment
Understand the end-users
Hear from end-user needs and optimize the application features
We should always want to monitor, especially in the production environment. If the usage goes
down/interrupted, we can identify the root cause for the same. If so then we should know whether the recent
deployment changed the behavior. By using some predictive analysis methods this can be auto-corrected
from the collection of raw data.
From the business perspective, analytics reports should help us to know, who our users are. Where are they
coming from? Are they using all the features? Does the performance have an impact on behavior?
It is always important to have feedback from end-users. End-users are the key partners for any organization to
strengthen our products/services. So the valuable feedback from customer/end-user can help us to optimize
the performance and add features to the applications.
Collaborate with Dev, Ops, Biz
Got an Issue? It is very important to have process and tools that foster collaboration between Dev, Ops and
business teams. It helps to make sure everyone is on the same page.

Five Fingers Theory for DevOps Success
Monitor your Pre-Production environment
In order to achieve the challenges/goals in the production environment, we should ensure that our
application must be tested and ready for the desired performance in the pre-production environment before
they go live in production. When using the analytical tools in pre-production environment, it triggers the
automated actions and reports the successful failures.

  • 3. In this paper we aim to explain about the possible benefits of adopting DevOps Practices with the best-in-class Analytical tools (cognitive computing). Why do we need DevOps in our organization? Well we may have expert team in software development, Release management, QA and IT Operations. Is this really enough to deliver the product on time when we use traditional agile software development approaches alone? The answer is NO. In general, DevOps practice impacts major changes in IT culture and helps them in rapid service delivery through the adoption of agile and lean practices with a fully automated lifecycle. DevOps simply emphasizes people and culture, seeks to improve collaboration between the operations and development teams. DevOps implementations utilize technologies, especially the major automation tools that can leverage an increasingly programmable and dynamic infrastructure from a software development life cycle perspective. What is DevOps?

The main goal of cognitive computing is to create an Automated IT System that should be capable of solving problem/providing solution without human assistance. It uses machine learning algorithms; “39% of product development companies are releasing applications monthly or more frequently” In general, a Cognitive service is a simulation of human thought process in a computerized model, also known as cognitive computing. These systems acquire knowledge from the data fed into them by mining data for information. The systems refine the way they look for patterns and as well as the way they process data so they become capable of anticipating new problems and modeling possible solutions. Cognitive computing is used in numerous artificial intelligence (AI) applications, including expert systems, natural language programming, neural networks, robotics and virtual reality.
  • 6. Aspire Systems - Integrating Cognitive Services into your DevOps Strategy 6 Sales and demand are heavily time dependent. Sales fluctuation at different seasons of the year is one of the hardest challenges for good forecasting and demand planning initiatives. Over the last several years DevOps teams focused on automating the application delivery using a few provisioning, release and automation tools. Now it’s time for DevOps team to automate the way we support applications in production by leveraging application/software analytics and machine learning to automate the manual tasks involved in incident detection, troubleshooting and root cause analysis. Very soon we expect to see a new concept of Analytics- powered by DevOps and ITOA (IT Operations Analytics) tools that will help deal with the actual challenges faced in DevOps by collecting and analyzing all the changes across entire environments. Monitoring all actual changes and analyzing them together with release and deployment data, will allow for smooth, error free releases. Think about a scenario, A person sitting in a remote location and monitoring the complete delivery pipeline through an Analytics tool. Integrating Cognitive Services into your DevOps Strategy Think Big: DevOps with Analytics "Gartner recognized IT Operations Analytics as an area on the rise with high impact on IT operations. So the analysts recognized that analytics will enable to perform processes that will significantly increase revenues or cost savings for the enterprise."

  • 7. Aspire Systems - Integrating Cognitive Services into your DevOps Strategy 7 By doing so, analyzing the detailed changes and validating the change configuration across the IT environment (including application deployment) can help the IT Ops team to avoid below scenarios As the complexity of the current infrastructure environment and operations process grows, without applying the IT Analytics, we may lead to continually perform repetitive operations, time consuming tasks in order to close these automation gaps. Integrating Cognitive Services into your DevOps Strategy When using mathematical algorithms and other innovations, IT Analytics tools can carry out the calculations that churn through these immense amounts of data and extract valuable information from tons of raw data. Textual pattern analytics Textual pattern analytics helps to analyze the streams of textual data, such as logs. It can also find patterns that can be used to identify the conditions and behaviors. Statistical pattern analytics Statistical pattern analytics evidence the existence of relationships where explicit relations are either weak or missing, statistically comparing performance patterns to identify common behaviors and therefore, implicit relationships. Configuration analytics Configuration analytics can help to capture all the change configurations across the IT environments and analyze configurations to detect what changes have been made when the system was working fine. It also can help to verify the change consistency between environments and identify the discrepancies from desired configuration. Real Power of IT Analytics How IT Analytics tools can help IT Operations • Inadequate data of “Infrastructure Changes”, that fails to accommodate the gaps. • Inconsistent production environment where the changes are made. • Validating the pre-production environment, i.e. when the changes take place in the production and operations, how do they get back-reflected into the pre-production environment? “ITOA (IT Operations Analytics) tools will help deal with the actual challenges faced in DevOps ” Analytics Human Input Decision Action Descriptive What happened? Diagnostic Why did it happen? Predictive What will happen? Prescriptive What should I do? Decision Support Decision Automation Data Feedback The Analytics Continuum Source: Gartner
  • 8. Monitor the service and end-users post deployment Understand the end-users Hear from end-user needs and optimize the application features We should always want to monitor, especially in the production environment. If the usage goes down/interrupted, we can identify the root cause for the same. If so then we should know whether the recent deployment changed the behavior. By using some predictive analysis methods this can be auto-corrected from the collection of raw data. From the business perspective, analytics reports should help us to know, who our users are. Where are they coming from? Are they using all the features? Does the performance have an impact on behavior? It is always important to have feedback from end-users. End-users are the key partners for any organization to strengthen our products/services. So the valuable feedback from customer/end-user can help us to optimize the performance and add features to the applications. Collaborate with Dev, Ops, Biz Got an Issue? It is very important to have process and tools that foster collaboration between Dev, Ops and business teams. It helps to make sure everyone is on the same page. Aspire Systems - Integrating Cognitive Services into your DevOps Strategy 8 Integrating Cognitive Services into your DevOps Strategy Five Fingers Theory for DevOps Success Monitor your Pre-Production environment In order to achieve the challenges/goals in the production environment, we should ensure that our application must be tested and ready for the desired performance in the pre-production environment before they go live in production. When using the analytical tools in pre-production environment, it triggers the automated actions and reports the successful failures.
