Kris Buytaert is the Co-founder of Inuits, O11y, and ‘DevOps Days,’ an internationally-attended series of DevOps events. He is a passionate advocate of Free and Open Source Software, and is accredited by the community as being a founding instigator of the DevOps movement. In this episode we trace the history of the DevOps movement from its intersection with open source and Agile, through the evolution of Cloud technologies and tools such Docker and Kubernetes, to present day best practices for CI/CD, monitoring, and observability. Dive in to learn what DevOps is, how to adopt it effectively at your organization, how developers can master scrum, what development framework to use, how to avoid ‘merge hell,’ and why the most important DevOps tool of all is beer. _______________________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 The History of DevOpsDays and the DevOps Movement 06:00 What Does DevOps Mean? 07:00 Best DevOps Tools: Beer & Sushi 10:19 Management Tips: Do You Want Bureaucrats or Engineers? 12:12 How Cloud Technologies Have Evolved (And When Should SMBs Migrate) 15:06 RevolutionOS: The Community that Started the Internet 18:30 What is CI/CD? 19:15 "Merge Hell" and the case for Turn-Based Development 21:10 CI/CD Best Practices: Enterprise vs. Open Source Communities 25:34 Agile vs Waterfall (Spoiler: Rosencrantz and Waterfall Are Dead) 29:00 ‘DevOp’ is like ‘HTTP’: Without the ‘s’ It’s Insecure 30:19 Scrum Certifications & Digital Paperweights 32:49 Observability vs. Monitoring 35:56 What is IaaC? 39:38 How Kris fell in love with Coroot 43:00 What Is An Observability Anti-Pattern?
