Which key pillar of cloud native development should be utilized when a development team needs to automate build, test, and release cycles to achieve rapid and reliable software delivery?
DevOps principles directly address automation across the software delivery lifecycle. Oracle describes DevOps as collaboration between development and operations teams aimed at continuous delivery, with automation applied throughout planning, coding, building, testing, releasing, deploying, operating, and monitoring. OCI specifically identifies CI/CD tooling for automating build, test, release, and deployment activities. Containerization provides consistent application packaging, microservices define an architectural decomposition model, and serverless computing removes much of the underlying infrastructure-management responsibility. None of those technologies by itself defines the automated delivery lifecycle requested in the question. Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery are core DevOps practices that make software changes repeatable, testable, and deployable at high frequency while reducing manual intervention and release risk. Therefore, the correct cloud-native pillar is DevOps Principles.
