3 likes1,421 views
The document discusses enabling a DevOps culture using AWS. It describes how traditional development and operations roles focus on adding features and stability, but their real job is to enable business change. AWS services like CloudFormation, OpsWorks, and Route 53 can help with automation, continuous integration/delivery, small incremental changes, and failure detection. base2Services offers Cloud-focused managed services to assist with DevOps practices like security, patching, performance reviews, integration testing, and proactive/reactive support.
