Chapter 1. Introduction to DevOps and Continuous Delivery
Welcome to Practical DevOps!
The first chapter of this book will deal with the background of DevOps and setting the scene for how DevOps fits into the wider world of Agile systems development.
An important part of DevOps is being able to explain to coworkers in your organization what DevOps is and what it isn't.
The faster you can get everyone aboard the DevOps train, the faster you can get to the part where you perform the actual technical implementation!
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Introducing DevOps
- How fast is fast?
- The Agile wheel of wheels
- The cargo cult Agile fallacy
- DevOps and ITIL
