As we discussed, [DevOps has become a business buzzword](https://apiumhub.com/tech-blog-barcelona/devops-technologies-benefits/) in recent years. However, it is still something new. There are many excellent resources on DevOps that can help to clear some of the doubts you may have about the movement and its ideals. I spoke with [our team](https://apiumhub.com/software-developer-jobs-barcelona/) of software architects, software developers and DevOps experts and we came up with the DevOps reading list. We believe that these books should be read by people, who are interested in doing the DevOps right.

In this DevOps reading list you books which will help you find answers to your questions. However, authors can’t cover everything just in one book, therefore each one is dedicated to special areas of DevOps to better understand it. Also, you will find examples and case studies on how to implement DevOps in your organization and what are the best practices that should be definitely used to be a truly agile team.
