# DevOps Config and DevOps Change Velocity {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
DevOps Change Velocity collects data from all of your DevOps tools, providing visibility across the entire lifecycle of deployment, while DevOps Config manages and validates your DevOps configuration
data.  
Important:  
Starting with the Washington D.C. release, DevOps Config is being prepared for future deprecation. It will be hidden and no longer activated on new instances but will continue to be supported.

DevOps Change Velocity is a horizontal solution orchestrating on top of all of
your separate DevOps tools. DevOps Change Velocity features change
acceleration and can pause your pipeline. DevOps Config serves a different
purpose.

DevOps Config is a point solution that functions as one of your DevOps tools, managing and testing your configuration data prior to production.

## DevOps Config works better together with DevOps Change Velocity {#devops-config-devops-change__section_ngm_rkd_3pb}

Use DevOps Config with DevOps Change Velocity to manage and
validate configuration data collected by DevOps Change Velocity.

DevOps Change Velocity is an umbrella product that sits on top of your entire
release pipeline (planning, coding, testing, orchestration tools) as your application supply
chain (value stream map).

DevOps Config manages, validates, and provides results on how your application
and infrastructure are configured, which are the elements instrumented in DevOps Change Velocity.

DevOps Change Velocity and DevOps Config are synced by app
object.

With the DevOps Change Velocity change control feature, a change request is
created for DevOps Config configuration changes.

In DevOps Change Velocity, navigate to DevOpsOrchestratePipeline Change Requests to view and approve DevOps change requests created by DevOps Config changes. CDM snapshots are listed in the Config data related list of
the DevOps change request.
