DevOps is a development model in the game development lifecycle (GDLC), that advocates combining and connecting the work of the pre-production roles, or developers, with the post-production or support roles, known as the operations or ops. roles, to increase cooperation between them. DevOps encourages developers and the player support or live operations teams to establish communication channels that facilitate two-way feedback to help ensure that player sentiment, business goals, and development plans are all in sync. The DevOps model is often used on live games or Games as a Service (GaaS).
