What is LangOps?
When it comes to software localization, it is important to understand the flowing and continuously evolving nature of software development. In order for software localization efforts to be efficient and justify the investment, it is beneficial to think of it from a Development and Operations (DevOps) perspective. In order to create a product that truly resonates in local markets, software localization must embrace the collaborative nature, automation, continuous testing and continuous deployment, as well as opportunities to scale.

What is the benefit of Language Operations?
Language Operations provide a more technical and systematic thought process which is a lot familiar with the thought process of software development. Just as DevOps supports the scalability of software processes, having the same principle applied to localization ensures that as the product grows, its global reach and adaptability expand concurrently. In addition to that, ensuring that language operations align with DevOps, feedback is continuous and iterative. Integrating localization within this loop ensures that global user feedback is quickly incorporated, leading to better product iterations for all markets.
Are DevOps and Localization Connected?
DevOps principles don’t just make technical sense; it’s a strategic imperative for localization to become a more aligned process with software development trends. Such an approach ensures that products are built with a global-first mindset, resulting in enhanced user experiences, increased market share, and a competitive edge in diverse markets.
