The state of the technological landscape in the software development field has been in a continuous change and evolution at a fast pace ever since its beginnings. Only a few decades ago, the waterfall model was the best-in-class approach to the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) with most projects and teams being on the smaller side and the industry still making its baby steps. Nowadays, this approach is mostly seen as inefficient and adopted with disdain, since many projects use some form of an agile methodology. By synthesizing theoretical concepts with empirical evidence, this paper aims not only to investigate the benefits and drawbacks of implementing a DevOps methodology in software products, but also to act as a stepping stone for practitioners that want to accelerate the velocity with which a product goes from requirements to the production environment, regardless of the nature of the product: classic or quantum.
