* What is this ?
This is my humble blog where I post things related to DevOps in hope that I or someone else might benefit from it.

* Wait what ? What is DevOps ?
[[https://duckduckgo.com/?q=what+is+devops+%3F&t=ffab&ia=web&iax=about][Duckduckgo]] defines DevOps as:

#+BEGIN_QUOTE
DevOps is a software engineering culture and practice that aims at unifying
software development and software operation. The main characteristic of the
DevOps movement is to strongly advocate automation and monitoring at all
steps of software construction, from integration, testing, releasing to
deployment and infrastructure management. DevOps aims at shorter development
cycles, increased deployment frequency, and more dependable releases,
in close alignment with business objectives.
#+END_QUOTE

In short, we build an infrastructure that is easily deployable, maintainable and, in all forms, makes the lives of the developers a breeze.

* What do you blog about ?
Anything and everything related to DevOps. The field is very big and complex with a lot of different tools and technologies implemented.

I try to blog about interesting and new things as much as possible, when time permits.
