RE: DevOps is DOA

IMS_Scott 7th Oct

I would second the points made by Patrick and Eric above. To Tom, particularly, and to ZDNet, generally, I fail to see how this sort of post is designed as anything other than a thinly veiled advertisment playing on the climbing keyword appeal of "DevOps." The arguments for PaaS generally are strong, and you make most of them fairly well; the objections against DevOps are strained and the arguments faintly ludicrous. It's hard to see how it got in here as anything other than a controversy designed to attract raw eyeballs. It does not, in my opinion, cover either Engine Yard or ZDnet with glory.

In that spirit of raw exploitation, then, I will also throw in a link to my own blog post on the matter: http://agileoperations.net/index.php?/archives/101-DevOps-kicks-aaS.html
