Hey everyone, I’ve been hearing a lot about DevOps lately, and I’m trying to wrap my head around what it actually means. How is it different from the usual IT development and operations setup? I know it has something to do with collaboration and automation, but I’d love a clearer explanation. Also, does it have any impact on things like payroll systems or HR processes when teams start using DevOps practices? Would appreciate any insights or simple breakdowns—just trying to get a better understanding without getting too lost in the technical stuff. Thanks in advance!
