automation basics - principles

why automation?

  • not to put applications into production
  • to support the process of putting applications into production

devops

devops is a cultural movement

note: devops is a culture, all software related things (e.g. tools) might only cover let's say/assume a third of what devops is about

the three ways

flow

dev -> ops

  • Work should only flow in one direction
  • seek to increase the flow
  • think of IT as a value stream

feedback

ops -> dev

  • Establish an upstream feedback loop
  • Shorten the feedback loop
  • Amplify the feedback loop
  • information is a value-addition
  • feedback can help optimize the value stream

experimentation

  • Promote experimentation
  • Learn from success and failure
  • Constant improvement
  • Seek to achieve mastery through practice

dev-> <-exp-> ->ops
