Description
With the recent growth and popularity of DevOps in industry, practitioner outlets, and publications within the areas of computer science and software engineering, the aim of this paper is to address the question, “Is Information Systems late to the party?†In hopes of shedding light on this question, the authors conducted a thorough and systematic review of the publications contained in the Association for Information Systems eLibrary to examine the current state of DevOps research within the area of Information Systems. By following guidelines established for conducting reviews of literature in Information Systems, the authors identified 42 papers containing the keyword DevOps or Devops. Further analysis of each paper revealed only six papers that directly addressed the topic of DevOps. The authors conclude that Information Systems needs to fully “join the party†and that DevOps represents a fertile ground for increased Information Systems research.
