This research focuses on assessing the management challenges involved in the implementation of DevOps in SMEs.The integration of development and operational practices, known as DevOps, has garnered considerable attention for its positive effect on software development and delivery processes. While significant organizations have successfully adopted DevOps, small-scale establishments face a unique set of administrative obstacles when integrating this practice. Many organizations, both big and small, have already embraced or are actively moving towards the adoption of DevOps methodologies as a component of their everyday activities, aiming at boosting productivity and refining workflows [1]. The essence of DevOps lies in promoting a culture of cooperation and communication between development and operations teams. This cooperative fusion between these usually separate areas results in a well-coordinated integration campaign with concerted efforts toward a shared goal. Consequently, this leads to the creation of a swifter, more streamlined as well and highly reliable distribution channel. Developers and those responsible for operations who were once working separately now actively work together. Developers write code with an enhanced understanding of operational aspects while operations teams gain insights into the development process itself. This collaborative approach guarantees that the software produced is not just functional but also effortlessly maintainable and operable within production environments. The growing popularity of adopting DevOps is further stimulated by substantial investments made in software-based innovation [2]. Organizations are increasingly putting funds into collaborative practices coupled with automated application development methods. They've transitioned from their previous monolithic applications to a modern microservices setup which enables them to build, implement, and update individual parts autonomously, thus mitigating the risk of large-scale system crashes and hastening the speed at which new features and enhancements are released to clients. With more significant investments in software-led innovation and the acceptance of contemporary development methodologies, the assimilation of DevOps principles continues to gather steam [2].
