Unless you are an especially forward thinking Operations Engineer, I don’t think this is necessarily true.

Most of the people I’ve worked with called like that stopped their professional development somewhere around the year 2000 and are now coasting along.

For the new title, I feel like they completely ignore the Dev part of DevOps.

Ha! That’s not all that different from my experience. I was going to ask if we’ve collectively given up on arguing against DevOps as a title, role, department, etc.

missed process part. devops is not just automatization

IT operations engineer? How about sysadmin?

Yeah, pretty similar. The difference would be that a Systems Administrator mainly "Administrates" (maintenance, toil, etc), which doesn't have to involve an Engineering discipline. An IT Operations Engineer would take on more Engineering work and not necessarily "Administrate". And the "Operations" part can relate to either Business Operations or Operations Management.

great reply
