We've really jumped the shark with people not understanding the word DevOps, haven't we? When the Docker people don't get it, we should probably give up. Fine.

Fine. "DevOps" now means "some something development something something servers something something operations". Are you happy now, tech world? You've made Patrick Debois cry.
- pid-1 5y agoIt's simple. Before we had developer and operations teams. Now operations write yaml and we call them devops.
- liammclennan 5y agoI gave up when a friend defined DevOps as "the entire software development lifecycle". There is a trend of this sort of regression to the mean. Vendors want to jump on a keyword, so they fight to expand the definition to include their thing. Pretty soon everything is "DevOps".

- pnt12 5y agoHonest question: how would you define it? This question has come up in my team and everyone has a different definition for it.
- throwaway787544 5y agoIt has a definition in the same sense that "Agile" and "Lean" and "Six Sigma" have a definition. The definition isn't important, it's the group of ideas that the word refers to.
