While DevOps is thought to be synonymous with tools and automation,

Actually, IMO, it has to do more with cultural transformation..

The ultimate goal of DevOps is to bring what we develop faster and more useful to our customers

While automation is certainly a big part, even more important is the culture.

The tools just fast track the thought process we have,

It’s the experimentation with different ‘thought processes’ which is the secret

I always quote “Companies to take ideas to in the hands of consumers the quickest will win”,

Because they can experiment easily, and don’t have to fear a failed experimentation.

Now if the culture is not there, experimentation will not happen.

Then all DevOps will do is to facilitate in getting more “crap” out of the production line, but just “quicker”…

 

#DevOps with #CulturalTransformation = Measurable business value

#DevOps WITHOUT #DevOpsCulture = Same old crap, just delivered quickly
