Busting the 5 Biggest DevOps
Myths
DevOps is real, delivering real benefits ...
… but that doesn’t stop people from having adverse ideas about DevOps.
Here are the five biggest myths about
DevOps
Myth 1: DevOps is only for hipsters
To hear some tell it, DevOps can only be understood by a new breed of
blended IT professional: a “silo-busting” individual using the latest tools.
Reality: The problem isn’t the people.
It’s the organizational structure.
A rigid culture and a “one skill in one box” organizational structure
restricts people’s rounded set of skills from being fully utilized.
Review the untapped skills of your
current employees.
Before scouring for DevOps talent …
Look for ops professionals who think like coders, and coders who
understand the need for resilience.
Myth 2: One movement to rule them
all
Often, those championing DevOps claim that ITIL,
COBIT, and balanced scorecard no longer have a place and should be
discarded.
Reality: Processes to ensure resilience and
stability are more critical than ever.
Any set of best practices or methodologies will accelerate and improve
your IT services.
Don’t obsess about where the methodologies compete, but think
instead how they can complement each other.
Myth 3: DevOps is a technology
movement
There’s a lot of really good technical material written on DevOps, with
many new terms to consider — like infrastructure-as-code and anti-
fragile — all supported by a new range of products and techniques.
Reality: Business outcomes drive DevOps, not the
technology.
Meeting customer expectations is the
#1 priority.
Use customer feedback to test assumptions
Be prepared to change methods for project planning, product
management, funding, and implementation.
Use technology as a driver to
accelerate DevOps goals.
Remove physical constraints and bottlenecks that interrupt the flow of
value to customers.
Automate frequent release cycles. More releases mean more business,
not more technical headaches.
Myth 4: My business is immune
Many organizations argue that the principles of
DevOps don’t apply because they’ve outsourced
operations or don’t have an app dev function.
After all, what value could continuous change
bring to an “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” world?
Reality: ALL companies are in the
software business.
Many sneaker companies are expanding beyond
simply selling sneakers -- they now sell a fitness
experience (wearable devices) that depends on
software.
When thinking about DevOps, look at
your business first and IT second.
It’s really about being a business practitioner
and embracing techniques like experimentation,
iterative and incremental design, and above all
else — learning from failure.
Myth 5: DevOps will change the world
With so much hype, it’s easy to start drinking
the DevOps Kool-Aid™.
Reality: The success rate for development
projects hasn’t improved much in 20 years.
If your operations team gets rewarded for
stopping application releases, then no
amount of Agile development will help.
Likewise, it won’t help if your developers
won’t leave the office to meet customers.
DevOps is about five things — people, people,
people, people, and people.
