Considering the individual roles of IT service management (ITSM) and software engineers, it seems obvious they should work closely together. ITSM tracks internal and external customer issues and engineering fixes code-related issues (such as defects) that IT cannot fix on its own. However, more often than not, coordination between these two departments is poor, which—critically—undermines […]
Configuration Files and DevOps
When DevOps appeared on the scene, configuration file management tools already existed.

Characterizing and Contrasting Container Orchestrators
Admiral Calcote, also known as Lee Calcote (@lcalcote) or the Ginger Geek to his friends, gave a presentation titled, “Characterizing and Contrasting Container Orchestrators,” at the 2016 All Day DevOps conference. Okay, he isn’t really an admiral—nor does anyone call him that—but he used the title “admiral” to describe what container orchestrators do, relating it to an admiral directing a […]
Next-Generation DevOps: Self-Learning Systems
The massive enterprise movement toward all things “digital” has accelerated the adoption of DevOps in all kinds of projects, but particularly in digital transformation initiatives. Apart from the productivity benefits gained by automating software development and rollout, the increased agility has helped move DevOps adoption to gain critical mass in a relatively short time. However, […]
