I'm not surprised.

Is it just people I know or do you hear a lot of IT people saying DevOPs when they really don't know what it is to sound cool.

Going to take me a while to read this one

It's the new buzzword replacing cloud. In the interview I talked about how DevOps was all that there was in the 1950s - 1980s and only later did non-development IT begin to emerge. IT is actually a recent phenomenon that came out of DevOps. There was no need for a special word until now because there was no reason to specify it. Now youngsters think that this is some hot, new thing and don't realize we used to all do this.

Hmm.. I guess I'm not reading the right things I've never heard DevOps before.
Nice article with good explanations, as usual.

DevOps (the working concept) is often confused with using tools marketed as DevOps like Chef, Puppet and SaltStack. Modern DevOps people often use those, but there is no tie between the two. One is a mixture of job roles between SE and IT, the other are tools for managing large scale, horizontally scaling, cloud-like workloads. Both are common and useful without the other.

Very interesting article. I had never heard of DevOps before either.

I'm not a coder (even thought I could do some .bat work and HTML) - But as a 25 year veteran of working with hardware and software, does that make me a DevOps person? I'm working on reading the article between everyone hunting me down for something else to fix.....

DevOps is when the software development person is also the person deploying and supporting the systems. If you are not writing the applications that you run, then you aren't DevOps. Hardware and software is just IT. DevOps means that you are a software developer (SE) first and foremost, but have to do the IT too.
