Some of the key concepts of the DevOps 

1. Infrastructure as Code  ( IaC )
2. Continous Integration
3. Automated Testing
4. Continuous Deployment
5. Release Management
6. App Performance Monitoring
7. Load Testing & Auto-Scale
8. Availability Monitoring
9. Change/Configuration Management
10. Automated Environment De-Provisioning
11. Automated Recovery  ( Rollback & Roll-Forward )



Source Code Management 

GitHub
Bitbucket
Preforce Helix
Azure Git 
Subversion
PVCS, CVS , VCS

CI/CD/ARA 

common CI/CD and ARA tools,

ARA means : Application Release Automation 

Azure Pipelines 
Jenkins
CircleCI
TravisCI
Bamboo
CodeShip
Spinnaker
TeamCity
XebiaLabs

Value Stream Manaagement

GitLab
CollabNet
Plutora
Tasktop
Azure DevOps 

Before these tools are called as the Application Management Tool ( Now it is known as the Value Stream Management ).

What is this Value Stream Management ?

From gathering requirement to the product release everything is seen in one tool, that is the value stream management.

Ppl can see the End-to-End traceability of the product and that can be seen here.


Common Infra Automation and Management

Chef
Puppet
SaltStack
Terraform
Packer
Azure ARM  ( Azure Resource Manager Templates )
Cloud Formation

Serverless ( no need to have vms/servers/resources in place, if you have your code ready then the cloud providers will give an environment, you need to go and deploy your code in to an environment and cloud takes care of everything ).

Amazon AWS Lambda

Azure DevOps ( combines all the features/processes/pipelines in to a one CICD orchestrator platform ).

SCM
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT
CI & CD
VSM
BOARDS
ARTIFACTS
CLOUD
SERVERLESS

one tool serves all the purpose.

Deployment of Infrastructure : 

We can deploy to many resources for example,

1. On-premises servers
2. Infrastrcture as a Service ( IaaS )
3. Platform as a Service ( PaaS )
4. Function as a Service ( FaaS ) ( example : Web Apps )
5. Clusters
