This hands-on DevOps guide by Yevgeniy (Jim) Brikman (Terraform: Up & Running) goes beyond theory to teach real tools and practices for running production systems.
Transcript
Yevgeniy Brikman, author of "Fundamentals of DevOps and Software Delivery," discusses his journey from app developer to DevOps advocate, triggered by LinkedIn's deployment crisis that required freezing all product development for months. The discussion with Kief Morris explores the practical definition of DevOps as an efficient software delivery methodology, the relationship between infrastructure as code and application orchestration tools, the necessity of frameworks over custom wrapper scripts, and emerging paradigms, including infrastructure from code, infrastructure as graph models, and interactive runbooks. Brikman emphasizes that while new approaches are interesting, maturity and standardization in existing tools often provide more value than constantly chasing new technologies.
