And what about devops? With OpenStack and et al, aren't gurus telling us that maintainance (adminitración) doesn't exist no more?

- eropple 9y agoHow exactly does that follow? I'm a "devops engineer", and fully half of the concern around what I do is "how do we make this maintainable and know when maintenance is necessary?".
- toomuchtodo 9y agoThe death of devops/sysadmins/infrastructure engineers has been greatly exaggerated within the startup scene.
- deskamess 9y agoThat sentiment has actually been stated? I honestly thought it was on the uptrend...
- eropple 9y agoAgreed, though I think it somewhat depends on your definition. Most sysadmins at my clients have been uneasy at the pervasive sort of automation that we like; a lot of it is much more dev-heavy than a "modern" sysadmin (not your graybearded Perl wizard) seems comfortable with. Everybody else? Business is pretty great.

- jpwgarrison 9y agoHAHAHAHAHA, it hurts. OpenStack. It needs maintenance. A lot. Maybe that's what you were after and I missed it, but OpenStack ONLY works if you have an in-house mechanic or 5. If you have less than an FTE to throw at ops, use ESX or qemu/KVM.
