This evangelical title tells us the story of three employees of an imaginary company, ACME and how they got both enlightenment and success by embracing the DevOps side. I demand chapters dedicated to the different tools that help a team to continuously deliver code to production minimizing the risks, such as Jenkins or BuildBot. I want pages dedicated to either Chef or Puppet.

Docker would be ice on the cake. Unfortunately this book does not provide anything technical. Not a single line. Disappointing but fine, there are texts dedicated to non IT people, those of the Business department or the boss himself. These people do not need to see code. They must be shown graphs and numbers that prove them the costs involved in moving towards the light DevOps , and the risks that come with it.

Such a book should definitely present some real case, the story of a couple of startups that, by embracing the DevOps philosophy, were able to avoid problems delivering software to the clients, despite the demand kept increasing over and over. And how all of this led these companies to climb the ladder up into wealthiness. Again, you will not find anything like this in this title. Not a single graph, not any real world successful story. This book tells the story of these three employees of this imaginary company and how they pass from disregarding each others feeling to love, success and DevOps.

As usual, you can find more reviews on my personal blog: Mar 15, Damir Arh rated it liked it. It turned out this was mostly a book about soft skills, with technical topics not being in the forefront. There were a couple of tools mentioned, and the importance of monitoring and metrics was strongly pointed out, but I expected more than that. I might be a bit biased due to my engineering background, though. A common thread through all the chapters is a story about a fictional company which successfully implemented DevOps.

It serves as an example of the journey and the practices involved. Pro It turned out this was mostly a book about soft skills, with technical topics not being in the forefront. Probably the most important message it tries to get across, is the fact that there's no such thing as DevOps in a box: In the end the book falls a bit short and remains just an overview of methodologies and approaches, with lots of pointers to further resources.

Although, not really actionable on its own, it is still a good starting point to learn about DevOps: Jun 11, Christopher rated it liked it Shelves: I'm going to gentler than other reviewers.
