DevOps is not what it seems

Abstract:

"There are many definitions of DevOps. Depending on who you ask, you will get a different view of what DevOps is about - tooling, an extension of Agile, continuous delivery, multifunctional teams, culture change, cost reduction. In Europe, DevOps is seen as a work method rather than a strategic choice.

In this talk, I will present a different view on DevOps, based on its goals and intentions rather than its technical characteritics. The aim of this view is to create common ground between the technical and managerial responsibiities within an IT organization, and ensure that both areas can reap the benefits of DevOps "
