Arrested Devops

Andrew Zigler (Mattermost) delves into the world of open-source development and the unique challenges faced by an "open-first" developer community. Andrew shares his deep insights into fostering collaboration, building trust, and navigating the intricate dynamics of open-source projects.

Jessitron is joined by Chelsea Troy, Staff Data Engineer at Mozilla, and one of the all-around most interesting people in software today, to discuss staff engineering, machine learning operations, and maybe also surfing.

It's been ten years of Arrested DevOps! Joe, Matty, Bridget, Jess, and Trevor spend some time (quite a lot of time!) reminiscing over stories and history of the podcast.

What happens when you suddenly are In Management? Matty is joined by Ben Greenberg to talk through the challenges of first-time management.

DevOps is not a department. It's a set of concepts and ideas that are human-centric and driven through Agile practices. It's applying Big A Agile to operations: fast feedback loops, deeper collaboration with stakeholders (which is the engineering team), and invoking people over process and tools. A current problem hamstringing organizations is that they treat DevOps like a commoditized department: one that writes shell scripts and deploys Jenkins servers, and not the value engine that those teams could be. They took the tools team, applied a light version of DevOps ideology, and said, "Hey, that's it. That's DevOps. Hashtag winning."

Most developers are familiar with two sources of data about their applications: 1) static code analysis, and 2) observability tools monitoring their system in production. However, a new data source is gaining popularity: Runtime analysis. Runtime analysis is a technique where an application's dynamic behavior is recorded and analyzed during development time, allowing flaws and other insights to be revealed before that code is deployed to production.

It's a complex world! Matty and Michael Stahnke wax philosophical about whether our systems need to be as complicated as we have made them

Matty is joined by Ohad Maislish and Cory O'Daniel for some updates on the Open Terraform project.

Adam Jacob (creator of Chef and the System Initiative) and Matty talk about what DevOps has gotten right, what has been wrong, and where we go from here.

When you're in the tech industry, your personal brand matters both internally and externally. This brand can help you stand out in your current organization or when you're looking for new opportunities.

Guest Sarah Morgan helps dig into how we can apply the principles of product management into our DevOps approaches!

Special guest Michael Isbitski joins us to talk about cloud native security and reviews the Sysdig 2023 Cloud-Native Security and Usage Report. Michael and Matty discuss some common security challenges and findings from the report, and how to address them.

Let's take another look at the topic of Platform Engineering, but perhaps with a different perspective. Pete Cheslock turns his attention to Platform Engineering, and if it's really anything new, or just what DevOps has always meant?

Looking for a job? Did you get laid off? It's rough out there. Let's talk about it with Sidney Miller.

Let's dig into the world of data, with Aiven's Francesco Tisiot.

Is DevOps dead? Did Platform Engineering kill it off? Matty chats with Daniel Bryant (Ambassador Labs) about Platform Engineering.

Courtney Nash and Casey Rosenthal from Verica join Matty for a deep dive into the results of the VOID (Verica Open Incident Database) report.

Roni Dover, founder of [Digma.ai](https://digma.ai), joins Jess to chat about continuous feedback and what's missing in every DevOps loop.
