EXIN DevOps Foundation — Question 12

Why does Operations benefit most from improved configuration management?

Answer options

• A. It allows Development to take over Operations tasks if they have too much work
• B. It allows Operations to automate configuration management using scripts
• C. It allows Operations to be involved in earlier stages of the development
• D. It allows Operations to respond to incidents more quickly than without

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer, D, highlights that enhanced configuration management allows Operations to quickly address incidents, minimizing downtime and enhancing system reliability. Options A and B focus on Development's role and automation, which do not directly address the primary benefit to Operations. Option C, while relevant, does not pertain specifically to incident response, making it less critical than option D.
