Through extrapolation, this talk recognises how the evolution of DevOps, SRE and Platform Engineering have produced amazing products, solutions, and outcomes. Our landscape now comprises a mammoth array of tools, languages, standards, and frameworks.
Assuming the contents of our toolbox continue to inflate at similar rates, will this impact our ability to deliver? Will entropy compound inertia? Will we be overwhelmed by complexity?
This is “DevOps’ Dirty Little Secret.” Drawing on the best of research and thought leadership, we examine how we could reduce inertia, cognitive strain, and complexity to succeed in the age of AI.
