Here There Be Turtles - Platform Ops in Public Cloud - Notes

Public cloud has a lot of mysterious corners, like those regions of the map where there used to be dragons. (original image)

I've been in ops for a while; a little visual on some of the places I've worked and otherwise participated. The University of Minnesota, 8thBridge, DramaFever, the AWS MN meetup, DevOpsDays Minneapolis. (And DevOps Against Humanity.)

Where I work. I'm at DramaFever, the world's largest streaming video site for international content, and also hiring. And awesome.


And we were just acquired this week by SoftBank! (image from VentureBeat article about the acquisition)

We're using exciting stuff like Docker in production. And as Michael Ducy put it, that's The Future of Everything.

Aneel Lakhani’s “Unicorns and the language of otherness” Ignite from Velocity NY 2014 is worth five minutes of your time. He argues persuasively that focusing on differences makes us think we can't learn from each other, and that's just not true.
