One view of DevOps is that it helps take on that last mile problem in software: value
delivery. The premise is that encouraging behaviors such as teaming, feedback, and
experimentation will be reinforced by desirable outcomes such as better software,
更多
delivered faster and at lower cost. For many, the DevOps discourse then quickly turns
to automation. That makes sense as automation is an environmental intervention that is
relatively actionable. If you want to change behavior, change the environment!
In this context, automation becomes a significant investment decision with strategic
import. DevOps automation engineers face a number of design choices. What level of
interface abstraction is appropriate for the automation tooling? Where should you
separate automation concerns of an infrastructure nature from those that should be
more application centric?
These questions matter because automation tooling that is accessible to all can better
connect all the participants in the software delivery process. That is going to help
foster all those positive teaming behaviors we are after. Automation that is decoupled
from infrastructure provisioning events makes it possible to quickly tenant new project
streams. Users can immediately self-serve without raising a new infrastructure
requisition.
We want to open the innovation process to all, be they 10x programmers or citizen
developers. Doing DevOps with OpenShift makes this possible, and this book will
show you how.
This is a practical guide that will show how to easily implement and automate
powerful cloud deployment patterns using OpenShift. The OpenShift container
management platform provides a self-service platform for users. Its natively containeraware
approach will allow us to show you an application-centric view to automation.
