▸ DevOps (a clipped compound of "development" and "operations") is a culture, movement or practice that emphasises the collaboration and communication of both software developers and other IT professionals while automating the process of software delivery and infrastructure changes. It aims at establishing a culture and environment where building, testing, and releasing software, can happen rapidly, frequently, and more reliably. ▸ Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DevOps
EVERYTHING MONOLITHIC HARDWARE OS, RUNTIME, MIDDLEWARE THICK APP, THICK CLIENT Runescape Ubuntu Server 8.4 (Current was 12.4), JVM Bare metal servers - add more servers to scale
Expensive ▸ Not as capable as AWS, fewer supporting services ▸ Like seriously.. are their SSDs made of gold or something?? ▸ Better dashboard then AWS (IMO)
Dyno based pricing (Dyno is a compute unit) ▸ Extremely slow response time if no dyno already running (web scale) ▸ Good starter kits for experimentation
whole SDLC so technically any tool can be used in a DevOps fashion, it's about the process rather than the specific tool ▸ ALTHOUGH there are a bunch of awesome tools! ▸ https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome ▸ http://newrelic.com/devops/toolset ▸ http://devops.com/2015/08/07/9-open-source-devops- tools-love/
Python based - really interesting ▸ Really new - less proven then Puppet or Chef ▸ Couldn't find price on website so makes me suspicious ▸ http://saltstack.com/
Uses YAML templating language ▸ Advertised as super simple ▸ Uses SSH for EVERYTHING ▸ Seems really janky ▸ DISCLAIMER - have never used it ▸ Cheaper then puppet and chef ▸ https://www.ansible.com
