CloudBolt Industry Insights (CII) was created to provide a different type of research to make
educated decision-making easy for enterprise C-suite, IT admins, and developers. CII is
dedicated to getting beyond the hype and rapidly finding out exactly what the market
perceives about the many dimensions of hybrid cloud and their roles in digital transformation.
The goal is to provide timely, usable insights and truth that get beyond the exuberance.
In the conversations about hybrid cloud, ITOps is squarely central. However, DevOps is
playing an increasingly important role in hybrid cloud strategies and accelerating digital
transformation. And the growing interplay between Developers and ITOps is increasingly vital.
As the subtitle of this study implies, this report digs into the truth about DevOps. Specifically,
we set out to examine the realities and market perceptions surrounding two key (and
rapidly-evolving) DevOps processes and tools:
• Continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD)
• Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC), particularly focused on HashiCorp's Terraform solution, a
rapidly growing company in IaC
