DevOps & CI/CD pipelines have transformed big companies trying to improve their software delivery speed, dependability & also teamwork. Uniting development and operations teams, DevOps is a technical & cultural change that promotes constant automation and more collaboration. A basic tool in this approach, CI/CD Continuous Integration and Continuous Development/Deployment guarantees automatically built, reviewed & delivered with little human participation, therefore guaranteeing code changes. Using these methods helps large companies supervising complex systems and large development teams to enhance product quality, lower time-to-- market, and reduce human errors. This paper defines best practices, common technology, and required cultural changes to investigate how firms may effectively combine DevOps and CI/CD pipelines. It also covers the typical challenges seen during adoption that of legacy infrastructure, resistance to change & inter-team coordination. Emphasizing useful insights acquired, including improved their deployment frequency and better process transparency, this article offers a case study of a multinational company using a DevOps-driven approach. The case study shows that major operational benefits may come from matching organizational structure with agile ideas, automating testing & deployment, and fostering a cooperative attitude. The findings show that, with careful execution, DevOps and CI/CD can turn corporate IT into a more flexible, strong & more innovative environment. The article ends by underlining the importance of strong leadership, continuous education & iterative improvements to preserve and grow the DevOps culture across huge, diverse teams
