The Top 5 DevOps Dashboards Every Engineer Should Consider

DevOps is een reactie op de onderlinge afhankelijkheid van software development (Dev) en operations (Ops). De spreekwoordelijke muurtjes tussen de Dev en Ops afdeling bestaan niet meer binnen DevOps. De implementatie van DevOps resulteert in een versnelling van de ' time to market' en een verhoging van de kwaliteit van delivery. DevOps gaat een stap verder in de richting die met Agile werken al is ingezet. Waar bij Agile werken frequent werkende software met de meeste toegevoegde waarde wordt opgeleverd, gaat DevOps nog een stap verder door de applicatie delivery te versnellen.

HOW DEV VS. OPS BECAME DEVOPS The founder of DevOps explains how the movement started and where it's headed.

If you don't know where you're going, any road will get you there, writes Michael Coté as he looks at management's strategic use of DevOps, or lack thereof.

System administration is in a sad state. It in a mess. I'm not complaining about old-school sysadmins. They know how to keep systems running, manage update and upgrade paths. This rant is about containers, prebuilt VMs, and the incredible mess they cause because their concept lacks notions of "trust" and "upgrades".

DevOps is a very successful meme in our industry. Most organizations these days seem to be saying that they aspire to it, though they don't necessarily know what it is.

InfoQ talked to Patrick Debois and Kris Buytaert, part of the team that organized the first event 5 years ago.

DevOps isn't just about Dev and Ops. It's about corporate management as a whole.

Community Interactions in DevOps

A path to DevOps When Lara Hogan asked Bridget Kroumhout (on stage, at Velocity), "So, how did you get tricked into operations?" it was funny, but it got Kroumhout thinking. It's a question she's been asked before, and has sometimes been at a loss for an answer since she didn't follow a plan originally. Kroumhout now offers a plan-a wonderfully thoughtful and pragmatic set of resources beginning with culture (e.g., if you work in tech for even a little while, you'll notice that you have a lot of social and economic privilege, no matter your demographic identity, because you have more choices in your work and life than do many of your fellow humans), tools, education, community, and how to launch your career. Even if you're already well established, this is worth a read if only to rekindle your fire.
