With a background in North America, Debabrata Biswal is an established technology executive who served as head of telecom, Americas, with HCL. Tasked with driving communications growth, Debabrata Biswal is part of a firm that has positioned engineering-led DevOps as a key facet of organizational acceleration.
The DevOps model is one that moves organizations from a traditional siloed software development structure into one where engineers engage across the full application lifecycle, including development, testing, deployment, and operations. This enables engineers to gain a range of understanding and skills not confined to single functions. The end result is higher velocity innovation and adaptation to current market trends, and an enhanced focus by operations teams and developers on continuous delivery and microservices.
Another facet of DevOps is in bolstering the type of ownership and accountability that drives effective teams. Automation is deployed in a consistent way that accommodates complex evolving systems, and mitigates risk. Whether the goal is full scale infrastructure change or a simple update to an application, with employees working together within an integrated system, solutions reach end users faster in ways that create a more positive experience.
