Wouldn't a DevOps role have more context switching?
- yuppie_scum 5y agoYes, at best in DevOps you might get to work a project for a day or two before being yanked in a completely different direction.
- ingvul 5y agoDevOps usually need to be on-call (paid) rotations. That sucks.
- dimitar 5y agoI currently have to juggle Build & Release Pipelines, Infrastructure as Code, monitoring tools, Building images, Configuration management, some DB admin. The context switching is almost a defining feature of modern DevOPS/Operations/SysAdmin/Infrastructure Engineer jobs, unless you are working in a pretty big company that allows you to specialise. On the other hand if you get a job dealing with only build pipelines or only Kubernetes maintenance it will get boring in a while. Best is to rotate between projects, and have different team members build expertise on some area.
