On this week’s podcast, Wes Reisz talks with Chris Swan. Chris is the CTO for the global delivery organisation at DXC Technology. Chris is well versed in DevOps, Infrastructure, Culture, and what it means to put all these together. Today’s topics include both DevOps and NoOps, and what Chris calls LessOps, what Operations means in a world of Serverless, where he sees Configuration Management, Provisioning, Monitoring and Logging heading. The podcast then wraps talking about where he sees validating code in a serverless deployment, such as canaries and blue-green deployments.

Why listen to this podcast:

* Serverless still requires ops - even if the ops aren’t focused on the technology

* Even with minimal functions, the amount of configuration may exceed it by a factor of three

* Disruptive services often move the decimal point

* ML is the ability to make the inferences and AI is the ability to make decisions based on those inferences
