DevOps is the MacGuffin

DevOps is the MacGuffin

This talk explores a parallel in storytelling to address the conflict around the term DevOps and its fragmented use today. I'll draw comparison to the history of the term and its use in storytelling, to illustrate how - regardless of how it's specifically defined - DevOps is driving us forward
- Audience: Those new to and familiar with DevOps
- Takeaway: Don't get hung up on the term, its value is in driving the story
- Presented at: DevOps Days Belgium 2014
