18. @krisbuytaert
Culture vs Tools

19. @krisbuytaert
This industry is
great at killing awesome
things

20. @krisbuytaert
Is ITIL dead ?
●
The last mile
●
The men who say no
●
Guardians of Production
●
Friday at 10 am
●
Reducing risk upfront
●
Machines make decisions
●
Lower downtime
●
Constantly
●
Learn the Language
●
Automate the steps
●
Speed up 1000x

21. @krisbuytaert
Agile is dead ?
●
Waterfall
●
Watermill
●
Jira & Standups
●
SaFe

22. @krisbuytaert
Who killed #devops ?

23. @krisbuytaert
We Did
●
7 tools for your devops stack
●
Puppet vs Chef vs Ansible
●
Docker , the Ultimate “Devops” Tool
●
Implement all the tools ..

24. @krisbuytaert
Recruiters Killed #devops
●
It's not a job title.
●
Is it a developer ?
●
Is it an ops engineer ?
●
a system engineer writing code ?
●
a developer running operations ?

25. @krisbuytaert
#devopsteam
●
It's not the team running tooling
●
It's not the team in charge of delivery
●
It's not yet another silo between devs and ops

26. @krisbuytaert
There is no such thing
●
Who is certified ?
●
By who ?

27. @krisbuytaert
Certification kills everything
●
ITIL => misses the goal
●
Scrum => makes it a procedure
●
Devops => the biggest scam of them all
●
For the cause of education ?
●
Devops “insert your tool here” Certifcation ?
●
Certification = Vendors milking users
●
You can’t standardise it either !!

28. @krisbuytaert

29. @krisbuytaert
Most Large Enterprises are not even close to #devops,

While pushing people closer to BurnOut :(
