Growing up as a boy in Manchester, UK, football (ok, soccer to US readers) was everything to me. I vividly remember being herded into the stadium stands on cold rainy Saturday afternoons to watch my team (#MCFC) win, draw or lose. Back then, football was for the die-hards – no frills or fancy tech, just […]
Top 5 Anti-ESB Arguments for DevOps Teams.
Unix and Mac. Developers are always in combat. My last verbal combat was a “discussions” around ESB and Microservices. They are fun because both supporters tend to have very strong opinions about what they think is best and both want to fight each other. I recently got involved in one of those discussion about ESB […]
SaaS: Building Tools for the DevOps-Minded
DevOps, Continuous Delivery, Continuous Integration and Continuous Testing are no longer just methodologies and development strategies — they’re all a part of a growing economy within the tech industry.

Rework is Choking Software
Rework is Hell “Software may be eating the world, but rework is choking software”, tweeted John Jeremiah (@j_jeremiah).

Having not been offered a seat at the table with everyone else, the DBAs have decided to have their own party in the form of a survey and corresponding report […]

That Supplier is Better For You Since releasing the 2015 State of the Software Supply Chain Report, there has been a lot of great discussion across the industry on best practices for managing the complexity introduced by the volume and velocity of the components used across your software supply chain.

Two paths to metal devops: cloud-like API driven & cluster building
I’ve been seeing a rising interest in metal DevOps fueled by containers and scale-out data center platforms (like Hadoop, Ceph & OpenStack) that run at the metal level. While I see this is a growing general trend (Packet, Internap, RackSpace, OpenStack Ironic, MaaS), I’m going to stay firmly within my wheelhouse and use OpenCrowbar as my reference here. […]
