It Is Time for DevOps to Focus on Ops
The advent of both Agile development and DevOps were great steps in improving an IT process that had become ossified, with policies that alternated between resistance to change and trying to do things better/faster. Between them, Agile and DevOps broke the cycle of resistance … but only for development. The confusion around CI/CD is a […]
Cloud Drift Detection With Policy-as-Code
Cloud configurations can change and change often. Introducing new technologies, releasing new features and supporting new business requirements entail a constant flow of configuration changes in web application development. However, drift occurs regardless of how well-designed your IaC implementation is. The term “drift” is used to denote a state in which the actual state of […]

Infrastructure-as-Code Pitfalls in Platform Engineering
In the context of cloud operations, the last decade was ruled by DevOps and infrastructure-as-code (IaC). But what is true DevOps? Is it developers running their own operations? Is it operators learning development skills to automate infrastructure provisioning using infrastructure-as-code (IaC) tools like Terraform? Though DevOps is widely understood to incorporate both of these, software […]
What’s the Difference Between DevOps and Platform Engineering?
The DevOps space is buzzing with a new trend—platform engineering. Platform engineering has been gaining steam over the last few years but has really peaked in interest lately. In fact, according to a study conducted by Puppet Labs, 51% of organizations have adopted platform engineering or plan to do so in the next year. But […]
Start Automating Now
A bit of feedback I received from last week’s post is that I didn’t provide any background, I just jumped right in with examples. So let’s take a step back and talk about the bigger picture. It is always a surprise to me when I talk to enterprise friends and associates and hear that automation […]
