So, you’re thinking of taking DevOps out of the relatively safe, yet challenging environment of the controlled initiative, and into the far less safe, and even more challenging environment of the broader enterprise? While, “if you want get there, don’t start from here,” may be a familiar adage, most organisations have little choice but to take what they have (in terms of strategy and organisation, people and tools) as a foundation for DevOps nirvana. Given this, complex, crumbling reality upon which you already stand, how can you start thinking about broader deployment of DevOps? In a recent webinar with myself and Nigel Kersten at Puppet, our discussions and Nigel’s hands-on insights unearthed a set of steps which I thought I would paraphrase and share. These aren’t so much a methodology as “what seems to have worked for a number of organisations” — feedback welcome, as always! 1.

The majority of AI and machine learning is built to bolster the revenue streams of corporations rather than for the interest of human welfare. That scares me. The source of this fear comes from three compounding causes: Lack of effective government investment in AI Venture backed investors favoring business to business (B2B) startups over business to consumer (B2C) Corporations primarily driven by profit, not social utility. Our society lacks a singular force with deep pockets that consistently values social good over revenue. The closest should be government, but it’s sluggish at best and apathetic at worst when it comes to  technology adoption that benefits society. Furthermore, the United States government is primarily fueled by the pockets of lobbyists who represent the interest of corporations rather than citizens. Occasionally there’s a bipartisan initiative to utilize technology to empower citizens but even then the implementation of such initiatives waxes and wanes depen
