DevOps for Anton - Sören Merkert

What is it about?

Forget dry theory—this is about the real madness in the IT engine room. This book shows you how to treat your infrastructure just like your code: cleanly versioned, automated, and reproducible. From the first Jenkins pipeline to root cause analysis, you will learn how to build processes that don’t collapse just because you looked at them the wrong way.

“DevOps for Anton” is mandatory reading for anyone who has realized that hope is not a validated deployment strategy.

I thought I’d give you a little sneak peek into my upcoming technical book. What exactly is it about, and what tone does it strike? To answer that, nothing fits better than the preface itself. So, here it is. Enjoy the read!

„Und … was machst du eigentlich genau?“

Wenn ich für jedes Mal, wenn ich diese Frage gehört habe, einen Euro bekommen hätte, müsste ich dieses Buch hier nicht schreiben. Die Antwort ist meistens kompliziert. Ich bin kein reiner Software-Entwickler, der den ganzen Tag Code in eine schwarze Konsole hämmert. Ich bin kein reiner Admin, der „Nein“ sagt, sobald jemand einen Server anfassen will.
