DevOps cannot be automated away. So stupid.
DevOps is one of the most automated parts of software development and deployment actually.
Article seems like complete bullshit anyway.
....noooooo, it most definitely isn't.
While the job does deal heavily in automating things, it only automates Boolean things. Looking at a platform and seeing why and where it's failing is not a Boolean thing, and never will be. It's the same reason we still don't have machines that repair cars over 100 years after their introduction.
Exactly. DevOps engineers are already super skilled at using automation where appropriate, but knowing how and when to do that is still an extremely human task
