DevOps topologies
With the growing list of tools and technologies available to Dev and Ops, it may be difficult to figure out where the responsibilities lie in moving toward a DevOps approach. Who is responsible for creating the CI/CD pipeline? What do we consider databases? How do we deploy into production?
In 2013, Matthew Skelton initially described three team anti-types to avoid and five possible team structures. Additional contributions have increased the number of anti-types to eight and the number of beneficial team structures to nine. The following list shows the anti-types and they are elaborated here at https://web.devopstopologies.com:
- Dev and Ops Silos
- Permanent DevOps Team Silo
- Dev Doesn’t Need Ops
- DevOps as the Dev Tools Team
- Rebranded Sysadmins
- Ops Embedded in Dev Team
- Dev and DBA Silos
- Fake SRE
