I Don't Want DevOps. I Want NoOps!
No Ops. No Problem. How should DevOps work? Developers have no interest in learning all of the configuration management tools. Your automation should be so good that no one knows that operations is even involved.
Development teams just want to deploy the app. Everything else is just friction.
“The future of operations is we’re going to have to move closer to the actual code base.”

Velocity 2012: Jesse Robbins, “Changing Culture & Being a force for Awesome” I first ran across Jesse Robbings as a user of Chef for infrastructure automation. He has a great backstory and has a perspective that provides some very good insight!
“Robbins is a volunteer Firefighter/EMT and Emergency Manager, and led a task force deployed in Operation Hurricane Katrina. His experiences in the fire service profoundly influence his efforts in technology, and he strives to distill his knowledge from these two worlds and apply it in service of both.
Leveling Up
Taking your engineering & operations role to the next level One of the funnier tech presentations that I have ever run across with plenty of good content.
“At conferences there are always talks covering technical strategies, new tools and software, but this talk will aim to cover something completely different – the soft skills needed to be the very best at any job in operations or engineering. Most organizations are moving into a DevOps culture where the line between system administrators, operators, and developers is much more blurry, and to be great in these environments it is no longer enough to be technically knowledgeable in your specialty, it’s also necessary that you have great interpersonal skills including strong communication and emotional intelligence.
