Gartner defines the DevOps continuous compliance automation market as tools that organizations use to assess and report against an increasingly large number of contractual obligations and regulatory regimes. These regimes are expanding beyond the traditional regulations involving health privacy (HIPAA) and personal privacy (GDPR) to include cybersecurity (NIST 800-218) and government (FedRAMP, DORA [EU]) mandates. These tools allow automated enforcement, assessment of security and compliance policies as part of application delivery workflows, and for the efficient generation of audit reports and publishing them to audit consumers. Platform and product engineering teams can use the tools to report on and meet their organization’s control requirements.
Gartner defines DevOps platforms as those that provide fully integrated capabilities to enable continuous delivery of software using Agile and DevOps practices. The capabilities span the development and delivery life cycle built around the continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline and include aspects such as versioning, testing, security, documentation and compliance. DevOps platforms support team collaboration, consistency, tool simplification and measurement of software delivery metrics. DevOps platforms simplify the creation, maintenance and management of the components required for the delivery of modern software applications. Platforms create common workflows and data models, simplify user access, and provide a consistent user experience (UX) to reduce cognitive load. They lead to improved visibility, auditability and traceability into the software development value stream. This end-to-end view encourages a systems-thinking mindset and accelerates feedback loops.
