Why DevOps shouldn't be a part of your job title

why would you try to solve a silo problem by creating a new silo?

What was the end result?

Bitching from the 'operations' team that 'devops' broke something.

Bitching from the 'development' team that 'devops' broke something.

DevOps is not...
  • PR for what we’ve always done
  • giving developers the root password
  • All Systems Administrators should write code and all developers need to rack servers
  • We don’t need Systems Administrators – we’re DevOps and we use the Cloud!
  • require you to use tool xxxx
  • We are a large enterprise and the vendor tools cannot be automated, we cant practice DevOps

DevOps is a culture thing

  • Story about Kelsey Hightower and PCI/PCI-like compliance
  • real walls due to compliance
  • folks feel we are co-opting culture in exchange for buzzwords and attention

culture matters

it's not just about us, it's about companies finding us
job titles are in many ways just another way to communicate, to broadcast an intent and a need.

develop the testing framework

let the hate build inside

take ownership of the release

take the blame

focus the hate

blame robots, not humans

fix the feel

  • around our 3 month point we take over updates to the edge
  • 4/5 noc calls that first week
  • 4/5 noc calls that 2nd week
DevOps broke it OMG it's broken is this a DevOps thing? How do we make sure this is right?
