Introducing 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 your coworkers what DevOps is and what it isn't.

The faster you can get everyone aboard the DevOps train, the sooner you will be able to 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
