DevOps => Operations
DevOps is not a type of work, but more of a "way" of working collaboratively with other departments to achieve common goals.
DevOps is commonly used as shortcut for "DevOps Engineer".
Yeah but these are operations-related questions. The following are devops questions:
- What is DevOps?
- How they would you communicate a change if no procedures existed?
- Which is more important to the success of any DevOps community: how people communicate or the tools that you choose to deploy?
"DevOps Engineer" is not a role. Dev+Ops is a cohesive team that engages in both Development and Operations tasks, or it's individual Operations and Development teams that work very closely together. If it's a separate role then it's probably just "Ops".
@ckrough tell that to 90% of companies ;-) I'm not saying it's correct usage, but it's just popular.
So let's correct it?
I agree, DevOps "as a role" is a poor choice of words and should be avoided if possible; we should not propagate incorrect assumptions from people who do not wish to understand what words mean.
Ops is more correct, of cource. But changing "DevOps" means this repo wouldn't be found anymore in Google/GitHub Search by those people (many of them) who are searching for interview questions in context of "DevOps engineers".
Yes stop using devops as a role. 😃
