  Oh, the automation I'm speaking of there was the automation of human behaviour through following a script/checklist. It helped everyone - the juniors felt more confident about escalating, and they learned from it too. (I'd read The Checklist Manifesto, which I couldn't recommend enough, BTW). In more trad automation, I got a little obsessed by automating the construction of environments, but in a human-readable way: http://ianmiell.github.io/shutit/ http://ianmiell.github.io/shutit/ and Docker (wrote this book): https://www.amazon.com/Docker-Practice-Ian-Miell/dp/1617292729/ https://www.amazon.com/Docker-Practice-Ian-Miell/dp/16172927...

I don't work in ops anymore :)
