dc.description.abstract	On-Time Delivery (OTD) with high quality is the key success factor for Software development organizations. To increase the ability to meet the OTD with high quality, software organizations start practicing DevOps. And the rate of adopting DevOps is highly observed in the regions where the IT industry is already developed. Still, there is a clear demand of analyzing the DevOps culture to understand the formulation and vision of continuous quality product delivery of Software organizations in a region like Bangladesh where the IT sector is rapidly expanding. In order to explore this, we conduct our current study using both empirical study and statistical analysis based on semi-structured interviews and surveys. We conduct our survey on 9 different Bangladeshi software organizations ranging in size from small to large. It is discovered that most of the organizations follow a traditional approach, rather than having an established DevOps team. A large number of developers are accountable for the DevOps pipeline and the surveyed organizations in this region had a positive mentality about adopting DevOps.	en_US
