The word Devops means that the Dev team is the Ops team. If you have both teams, you are defeating the purpose of DevOps

- ownagefool 10y agoActually devops is supposed to be a culture where the dev team and ops team work together. What people seem to want it to mean is you're an ops team with automation skills. I've yet to see this be a dev team doing ops.
- Johnny555 10y agoIt goes a bit beyond "an ops team with development skills" in my company -- someone from Devops sits in on design and code reviews to suggest changes for operational needs (which almost always means adding metrics so we know how busy it is, and when it breaks or is near breaking, followed closely by adding enough logging so when it does break, we know why and don't need to page a developer to read a stack dump to try to figure it out). But ultimately, the developer is the one that best understands how their code may break so he needs to instrument the code accordingly. And when the developer knows that giving the right information to Ops may avoid a 3am phone call, they have good incentive to do so.
- TheCoelacanth 10y agoTypically a DevOps team would mean a team that works on things that make it easier for the whole organization to do DevOps, e.g. tooling for easier building, deploying, testing, configuration and monitoring. It doesn't defeat the purpose of DevOps unless the people at the organization think that it's the only team that needs to be doing DevOps.
