the strong trend is to have separate peeps for doing the devops than wot did the dev, thus violating systematically the core and really only principle of devops it does pose a good excuse to force sysadmins to know how to code tho

either way that kind of administration of systems (should come up with some kind of abbreviation) is not even distantly what i am good at. pretty much me working away on the little valve or nozzle i am responsible for preparing the moon mission, and someone suggests i should learn how to put the rocket together and oversee a launch as some kind of side hustle.

more like “hey you can use an aws lambda to scale up your valve with little effort”

hobbesmaster posted:more like “hey you can use an aws lambda to scale up your valve with little effort” valves, and most one-person pieces of software, are not useful in isolation though. generally the point is that whatever you want to term the people doing deployment, provisioning and operations in modern cloud environments are (ideally) experts. even if the first move is easy doing things right takes planning, detail-orientation, and constantly updated knowledge. of course i even now cheat my way through some aws stuff here and there, but it would be idiotic for anyone to task me with it or for me to volunteer to do that work, my background, skills and education makes me no more suitable for it than someone in hr. get someone good paid. e: also being aware what can go wrong i would likely quickly stop sleeping.

Asymmetric POSTer posted:aws is just someone else's computer are all uses of computers administration idg why e.g. writing code to create and use a buffer for asynchronous processing is development when it runs in my company’s data center and sysadmin when it runs in aws’s data center

raminasi posted:are all uses of computers administration reason i tease a bit about the term is that a good system administrator back in the day did usually have a lot of coding tasks, and in complex places it was *also* an extremely complex specialized skill. if anything i find devops the a bit demeaning term, as it is bound up in the idea that some random developer could or should do it.

don't let the sh/sc bofhs who only derive pleasure from taking privileges away from the "lusers" get you down on sysadmin stuff, it's a good experience to be able to go through and understand how the software you right actually behaves in the field, and helps you make your software more useful

Cybernetic Vermin posted:if anything i find devops the a bit demeaning term, as it is bound up in the idea that some random developer could or should do it. ime devops is absolutely that. and not just random developer but some low paid outsourced rando on the other side of the world. i believe the investor storytime is that the software developers would drop a docker image and devops are responsible for deploying and orchestration and all the five nines part and because the five nines part is fairly established through sla contracts and whatnot, then it solves the problem of actually having to collaborate and work together with the remote parts of your team and its demeaning the same way that webdev ja demeaning - both devops and webdev are super complicated and hard to do well, but they’re shunted to junior devs / outsourced devs because no experienced developer wants to do it really [for the low pay]
