Embracing DevOps in Your Company – An Interview With our DevOps Expert

On the Cloud Academy Community, we get a lot of questions about DevOps. According to the 2017 State of DevOps Report by the DevOps Research & Assessment and Puppet, DevOps “is viewed as the path to faster delivery of software, greater efficiency, and the ability to pull ahead of the competition.” But what is DevOps? Is it a technology? A philosophy? And, what is it used for?
Today, we’re going to help clarify the mystery around DevOps by talking to Cloud Academy trainer Ben Lambert. Ben is a software engineer with a passion for information security, DevOps, hacking, and virtual and augmented reality systems. At Cloud Academy, Ben created the Introduction to DevOps course, as well as courses on Microsoft Azure, Azure IoT, Chef, Ansible, and many more (check out all of Ben’s courses here).
Here are just some of the topics that we cover in this conversation:
