When DevOps is selected as the IT implementation method design factor, COBIT 2019 emphasizes continuous integration, automation, and rapid solution delivery. The Design Guide indicates that DevOps environments require strong governance over solution identification, development, and build practices.
BAI03 (Managed Solution Identification and Build) directly supports these needs by ensuring that solutions are designed, built, tested, and maintained in a controlled yet agile manner. While change transitioning (BAI07) and operational objectives remain important, DevOps shifts responsibility earlier in the lifecycle toward build and integration activities.
DSS02 and BAI04 focus on operational stability rather than rapid delivery. Therefore, under DevOps, BAI03 becomes a priority management objective to ensure quality, speed, and alignment with business requirements.
