What organizational anti-pattern does DevOps help to address?

According to the SAFe DevOps Practitioner 6.0 study guide1, one of the organizational anti-patterns that DevOps helps to address is teams that are isolated and working within functional areas (e.g., business, operations, and technology). This anti-pattern creates silos, conflicts, and inefficiencies that hinder the collaboration and integration needed for continuous delivery. For example, some teams may prioritize speed over quality, while others may prioritize security over innovation. Some teams may resist change and adopt outdated practices, while others may embrace new technologies and methodologies. These differences can lead to misalignment, duplication, and waste of resources that slow down the delivery pipeline and reduce the value to customers. Therefore, DevOps helps to break down the functional silos and enable cross-functional teams that work together to deliver value to customers faster and more reliably.
