More than 120 acquisitions were tracked in 2021 alone," said Katie Norton, senior research analyst, DevOps at IDC. "DevOps is mainstream, which is driving the demand from enterprises for vendor offerings that are full scale and turnkey. It would behoove DevOps vendors and buyers alike to understand the historical M&A trends to help plan their future course in a highly active market."
