DevOps Automation vs Traditional Ops
Developers should learn DevOps Automation to accelerate software delivery, improve reliability, and reduce human error in repetitive tasks meets developers should learn traditional ops to understand historical it practices, which is useful when maintaining legacy systems, working in highly regulated industries like finance or healthcare where strict controls are required, or transitioning to modern devops approaches by appreciating the challenges it addresses. Here's our take.
