Why DevOps is treated as a role when it's set pf practices/ ideology? Even in the 'satckoverflow' surveys (https://insights.stackoverflow.com/survey/2018#work), it's mentioned as a 'DevOps specialist' role. And why they draw better salaries than backend engineers?
Project managers on dev teams, scrum masters, people who know how to configure CI. Sometimes one person is responsible it all, and that's your DevOps person
Seems like there’s a push to have everyone be able to “do” devops.
Most of the people who identify as DevOps have both software and systems engineering skill sets. Additionally, they're comfortable doing both where many software engineers tend to balk at having to do config management, build servers, etc.
In what world do devops earn better than backend devs?😂
Why do they draw better salaries? Supply and demand. Why isn’t it a role? MLE is a role, BE is a role, etc
