    <\/span>The Ops are waking up<\/span><\/h3>\n

    DevOps has been a disruptive theme in enterprise IT for the past two years, with the dev side being very enthusiastic about the joys of continuous development and integration, and the ops side less so.<\/p>\n

    However, now the ops side is waking up, at least in the world of Cloud Foundry and creating new cultures of complex, multi-cloud deployments.<\/p>\n

    This was one message that was clearly conveyed, at least to me, at Day 2 of the Cloud Foundry Summit 2016.<\/p>\n

    While maintaining that \u201cyou don’t need to throw out the old way to embrace the new way,\u201d he spoke of creating a new project called CompoZed Labs and imbuing it into the fabric of the company. Despite hard-headed progress, he noted that \u201ceven when top management and engineering backs your transformation, you have to fight ‘the frozen middle’\u201d\u2014layers of middle management who have built their feifdoms and will resist, resist, and resist.<\/p>\n

    Bill Hilf<\/a>, SVP and GM of HPE, talked about how customers are routinely building multi-cloud apps. \u201cThese people have very complex environments,\u201d he said, putting out a plea to end the use of \u201cprivate and public cloud,\u201d as the terms oversimplify and don’t properly describe the real world of enterprise customers.<\/p>\n

    Engineers Simon Johansson<\/a> and Daniel Otte<\/a> from Springer Nature presented a dry, deadpan, very funny, and very effective demonstration of the pain involved in moving to a devops culture. The result of changing time frames from months to minutes was nevertheless accomplished with a lot of metaphorical blood on the floor. This video, when released soon by the Cloud Foundry Foundation, is destined to be a classic for years to come.<\/p>\n
