- candiddevmike 4y agoSo fix that by hiring more ops folks...? Ops should scale with the dev teams, if they aren't you're burning them out and will have even more problems.
- brodouevencode 4y agoScaling ops teams is a lot like scaling dev teams - stick with the two pizza plan. That's where you get start finding the need for enablement teams (cross cutting) to ensure compliance, standardization, etc.
- encryptluks2 4y agoI don't think that is fair or accurate. My experience with larger enterprises is you have legacy ops and a whole bunch of people that know how to keep a few things running. They are like the systems administrators, but when it comes to development and automation they don't like change because that means for the most part they are irrelevant. With all the segregation in bigger companies if you asked a systems administrator to do cloud networking, storage, etc. they are going to not so politely tell you to F off. They are comfortable with just knowing how to manage vSphere or SQL Server. The more automation makes them feel uneasy because they simply don't want to adapt to the change and learn something new. They'd rather throw a fit and try to make your job more difficult.
