    This 'ebook' is 34 pages of not much more than marketing buzz words. Nothing useful for anyone really looking at or currently involved DevOps

      I'm guessing if your currently involved in DevOps, then you might not need the "For Dummies" ebook…

      I read 1/2 the book so far and it's quite good. It aligns many best practices I've seen and adopted over the years and packages them together neatly.
      It's missing important detail, but in some cases, provides further reading.
      I found the book's understanding of QA to be alien to mine, and quality to be used flippantly, eg. You get better quality with DevOps… Better quality what, I ask?
      The book constantly exaggerates what is new (eg. Implies no one ever thought of risk reduction in the early stages by releasing / implementing high risk functionality first… Really? Never thought of before agile eh? Hmmm).
      I'd definitely recommend this to someone with development experience who wants to understand end-to-end software systems. It is a useful roadmap, but you'll need the detail from elsewhere.
      For free, it's a bargain. Thanks OP!

      I'm impressed. A small team of engineers who structure a business to align around a DevOps model without management awareness, visibility or understanding … Most probably had the bosses playing free cell, right?
      I'm yet to come across such a miracle, but I've seen stranger things..
      15 years ago, I put my career on the line. I defied management and showed a prototype to the end user… The argument was "but what if it crashes…". The end user took 1 look at an early prototype with dynamic behavior and explained why it wouldn't work. This is a good example of where DevOps would have assisted me, but the industry wasn't ready back then… Never did get an apology from the nay-Sayers either…
