Wikipedia article in Portuguese (edited):

Devops (amalgam of the term in English Development and Operations, development and operations) is a software development methodology that explores communication, collaboration and integration between software developers and other IT professionals (Information Technology). Devops is the reaction to the interdependence between software development and IT operations. Aims to help organizations produce software and services quickly.

Current implementations of this methodology are based on both a set of processes and methods covering communication and collaboration between development departments, QA (quality assurance) and IT operations, and software delivery automation processes (deploy) and changes in infrastructure

In some organizations, this collaboration involves incorporating IT operations experts into software development teams, forming a multi-functional team that can also be combined with matrix management.
