DevOps For Salesforce – A Comprehensive Guide

Reading Time: 3 minutes

While most modern software development is Agile, small and medium scale businesses do not have the opportunity nor the resources to move in that direction.

Most DevOps teams have intricate mental models to ensure software development of the utmost quality.

Communication is the key in all of these instances, and it just so happens that a standard or social communication channel.

Some of the common challenges faced by DevOps teams in terms of production and development include:

  • Low testing confidence
  • Non-sync working Environments
  • Issues with Maintenance
  • Production challenges

While there are much more challenges as such, the above mentioned are the four more pressing ones.

Salesforce for DevOps

When combined with Salesforce, DevOps gives you a unique weapon for development and production unlike any other.

Salesforce development is a bit different from your average software development processes.

It needs you to code less but spends more time on developing the frameworks.

Thanks to its diversity, the feedback cycles are short and perfectly suited for DevOps teams to work on.

When we combine DevOps with your average salesforce development cycles, you will be having a continuous loop of feedback mechanisms at play.

Forget about improving your production cycles, and you can also develop a mini varsity for quality in the output.

Salesforce enables you to create a customized system that can streamline your entire team management and execution frameworks.

These illustrative and data-rich dashboards can slice through the time and effort taken to partake in decisions.
